The glow of the Rio Olympics is still bright,
so let’s experience a bit of the charisma and
beauty South America has to offer! The other
large cities we’ll visit during this cruise are
Buenos Aires in Argentina, and Sao Paolo in
Brazil. Crystal Cruises wants to show us not
only the remarkable and impressive culture of
these three metropolises, but also the small
cities on South America’s eastern coast which
we bet you’ll find enchanting!
This cruise, which Crystal calls ‘Tangos and
Sambas’, will take us from the shores of the
‘Paris of the Southern Hemisphere’ (Buenos
Aires), to the welcoming arms of Christ the
Redeemer in Rio. Along the way we’ll enjoy
some churrasco and caipirinhas, and perhaps
learn to samba, while putting ashore to enjoy
the culture and history of three countries.
The ship docks overnight in cosmopolitan
Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. With
broad, well planned avenues, charming sidewalk
cafés, carefully tended parks, elaborate
monuments, and splendid rococo buildings,
the city exudes an air of sophisticated
elegance. Perhaps you’ll venture into town
that evening to catch a tango performance or
to enjoy dinner with the locals.
On how many tours will you have the opportunity to visit Uruguay’s capital, Montevideo?
Set in a picturesque location along the River
Plate, Montevideo evokes the flavor of Spain
with the massive masonry, hidden patios and
palm-shaded plazas that are so reminiscent of
that country.
Another notable port is Paraty, a picturesque
colonial town frozen in time. Founded by
Portuguese immigrants, it became an important
port during an 18th century gold rush. The
money that poured into town resulted in a
collection of beautiful colonial buildings, and
today the historic town center is closed to

Huatulco – Sweet Dreams,

our home when we visit Huatulco in February.
Dreams is a sure bet for those who have stayed
there before and a dreamy new experience for
those who haven’t.
*Exclusive NexTour features
Pricing (per person)
The Pacific Ocean laps the shores of Huatulco's
36 stunning beaches which spread across nine
bays boasting warm water and golden sands.
Located on the coast of the state of Oaxaca
at the edge of the Sierra Madre Mountains,
Huatulco (pronounced wah-TOOL-co) spans
20 miles of Mexico’s Pacific coastline. In the
1980s, the government tourism development
agency began planning the area's main resort,
and in 1988 the Bahias de Huatulco (bays
of Huatulco) National Park was declared a
protected reserve with a world-class tourism
infrastructure of luxury hotels, restaurants,
nightclubs, discos, golf courses and a small
urban zone called La Crucecita.
At the all-inclusive Dreams Resort on Tangolunda
Bay you may dine at five a la carte restaurants,
a buffet and a cafe. The Portofino restaurant
(specializing in Northern Italian cuisine) is
adults-only. There are five bars and lounges
serving top-shelf spirits…and at the pool and
beach there are servers at your beck and call.
Evening entertainment includes live performers,
big-screen movies, theme nights and music
in the lounges. Daytime activities are too
numerous to list, but include several pools
(one for adults only), hot tubs, hobie cats and
kayaks, aerobics and yoga classes, and dance
lessons. For a fee, horseback riding, sport
fishing, deep sea diving or golfing are available
through the Resort’s tour desk. Whew, talk
about something for everyone!
If you choose to experience a Preferred Club
room, you’ll enjoy an upgraded suite and
mini-bar, access to a private lounge, special

and handicrafts.

South Africa Cruise & Safari –
Experience it All!
You might visit the southern part of the continent
of Africa only once, and we suggest that this
combined cruise and game safari tour will
satisfy your desire to experience South Africa’s
attractions—both natural and man-made.
South Africa is a vast country and one of the
most culturally and geographically diverse
places on earth. Fondly known by locals as the
‘Rainbow Nation’, South Africa has 11 official
languages and its multicultural inhabitants
are influenced by a fascinating mix of African,
Asian and European cultures. Most important
to many visitors is South Africa’s remarkably
untamed wilderness with its astonishing range
of wildlife roaming freely across game reserves
such as Kruger National Park.
Kruger is one of the world’s largest game
reserves and here we’ll experience amazing
diversity, from the scenery and ecosystems to
the dazzling array of animals, trees and birds.
Established by South African president Paul
Kruger in 1898, Kruger’s 16 eco-zones (each
with its own geology, rainfall, altitude, and
landscape) are home to more than 500 bird
species and 147 mammal species. The Park’s
flora varies from tropical to subtropical.
We’ll go on safari as soon as we arrive in South
Africa, flying into Johannesburg and staying
four nights inside Kruger at two of the Park’s
rest camps. Daily game drives will take us in
search of the Big Five: the African lion, African
elephant, Cape buffalo, African leopard, and
rhinoceros.
Although our accommodations in Kruger are
not rustic—we’ll have private bathrooms and
showers—it will be nice to board the luxurious
Silver Cloud after a few days at Satara and
Skukuza Rest Camps. Our 10-day all-inclusive
voyage will have three days at sea, allowing
us lots of time to relax and enjoy the ship’s
wonderful amenities.

Ports on our cruise include the unspoiled
Indian Ocean beaches of Richards Bay, cosmopolitan Cape Town, and historic Durban which
is said to have the largest Indian population
outside of India. If you’ve never been to Mozambique, here’s your chance. We’ll dock for a
few hours in Maputo, its laid-back capital.
First-time visitors are often amazed at how
sophisticated the infrastructure is on the
southern tip of what is still sometimes referred
to as the Dark Continent, and yet moved by
the living standards of so many. This unnerving combination of First and Third Worlds is
also what makes it such a dynamic destination. Add vast tracts of untouched wilderness,
iconic natural wonders, fascinating wildlife,
superb wines, world-class restaurants, and an
all-year temperate climate, and it is easy to see
why post-apartheid South Africa has emerged
as one of the world's fastest-growing tourism
destinations.

In October and early November hundreds of polar bears gather near the
small town of Churchill on Hudson Bay where the first ice of the season forms,
as they begin the return journey to their seal-hunting grounds. Tourists now
flock to see the bears as they migrate and we’ll join in that pilgrimage,
traveling by train (in Sleeper Plus class) rather than plane between Winnipeg
and Churchill. Our full-day polar bear adventure will be aboard a 40-seat
specially-designed Tundra Buggy which will take us out onto the tundra to view wildlife in its natural
environment. As a result of climate change, the bears’ numbers have dropped by 22% over the past 30
years. Don’t wait—reserve today—the polar bears might not be near Churchill forever!
Christmas In the
United Kingdom – Seasonal Joy!
The holiday spirit is fabulous in the hamlets
and towns of the U.K.—many towns have
holiday markets, décor is Olde World charming
and peace pervades the land. Less known
than ‘the continent’s’, but just as charming
and fun-to-shop, are the Christmas markets
in Great Britain’s smaller cities: Bath, York,
Cardiff, and Nottingham.
We'll stay three nights in Bath at the Bath
Abbey Hotel. This 18th century building is
near the Pump Rooms and Roman Baths,
not far from Bath Abbey as we explore
Jane Austen’s wonderful city! Follow in her
footsteps as you stroll Great Pulteney Street
or along the Royal Crescent before visiting
the Assembly Rooms featured in her novel
Persuasion. We’ve included a walking tour
both in Bath and on our day trip to Cardiff,
Wales. Next we transfer to York with a drive
through the Cotswolds and with a stop at
the Victorian Christmas market in Nottingham.
Our three nights in York will be at the Park Inn
by Radisson. York is a lovely city; we’ve
included a walking tour and we’ll see York
Minster, we’ll shamble along The Shambles, a
street lined with overhanging timber-framed
buildings and attend a Christmas concert by
‘Joglaresa’, a female vocal quintet which
specializes in medieval, folk and world music.
Near York is Castle Howard, one of Britain’s
finest stately homes which we’ll tour while
it’s decorated for Christmas.
We’ve squeezed a lot of excitement (and
shopping) into a week-long package which
will kick off your Christmas season with a
reserved British bang. And if shopping’s not
really your bag, just think of all the time that
frees up to explore these beautiful small cities
on your own. The markets are all located
city-center, so you could wander the nearby
alleys or lanes or relax in a pub while waiting.
Snow? Certainly not guaranteed, but Mother
Nature could decide to decorate the countryside—come with us to Britain and find out!
