Auckland is the starting point for this 29-night voyage.

Next, discover the colonial-era architecture of Samoa's capital Apia and snorkel on the coral reefs off the coast of Pago Pago in American Samoa.
French Polynesia beckons now: visit Raiatea, steeped in local mythology, Bora Bora, the honeymooners' favorite, and Moorea, a cluster of peaks wrapped in a blue lagoon. Two days in Papeete is plenty of time to explore Tahiti's black-sand beaches, before we head to Huahine for impossibly blue waters, Rangiroa for world-class snorkeling, and Fakarava for beautiful pink-sand beaches.
Then we have some time at sea, during which we sail past the beautiful Pitcairn Island. In Chile, we spend two days marveling at the moai of Easter Island, visit the remote and rugged Robinson Crusoe Island, and end our adventure in the colourful city of Valparaíso, the gateway to the Chilean Capital, Santiago.

Over to Ushuaia in Argentina now, flanked by craggy mountains and the incredibly biodiverse Beagle Channel.

Now to Devil's Island, a fascinating former penal colony in the Iles du Salut, before you island-hop around the Caribbean. First is Roseau, the colorful capital of Dominica; then French and British influenced Basseterre in Saint Kitts; lively San Juan, Puerto Rico; the jungles of Samaná in the Dominican Republic; and the white-sand beaches of Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
