We were just on this segment from Rio to Buenos Aires. I caught the stomach bug going around (norovirus?) but only lasted a day and a half. Thank goodness for room service! My husband had been feeling like he had a cold the last couple of days so after arriving home today, we did home tests and both tested positive for COVID. Will post a full trip report once I’m feeling up to it.

@boblerm I loved your detailed report! And especially the all the port information. You confirmed what I had thought about a few of them - why is that a stop? Our cruise is a few days shorter - here is the itinerary below. We might just stay in the boat in Santos or go to the beach. It’ll be our first trip to South America so even getting to hit Rio, Montevideo, and Buenos Aires will be a treat! 1 - Rio de Janeiro 2 - Ilha Grande 3 - Santos 4 - Itajai 5 - day at sea 6 - Montevideo 7 - Buenos Aires 8 - Buenos Aires

Thanks so much!

This will be our first cruise on Regent and I’ve been combing the forum here for tips and insight. Thank you for those handy bits of advice already submitted. More specifically, has anyone done the Rio to Buenos Aires cruise? We’re going in Jan 2024 and especially interested in hearing recommendations for excursions. Thanks!
