Snackdaddy Posted March 15, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Greetings, After many, many years of being loyal to Royal, we just booked our first Regent cruise (Cat. E) on the 12/8/13 Mariner from Rio to Buenos Aires. This will also be our first time to South America, so if you have any suggestions, recommendations or tips, I would really appreciate hearing from you. Here are our ports of call: Rio De Janeiro, Brazil Ilha Grande, Brazil Buzios, Brazil Paraty, Brazil Santos, Brazil Porto Belo, Brazil @ Sea Rio Grande Punta Del Este, Uruguay Montevideo, Uruguay Buenos Aires, Argentina Many thanks.

Travel2Learn Posted March 15, 2012 #2 Share Posted March 15, 2012 SnackDaddy, check the roll call section and request a referral. Also, there is a section in Cruise Critic on ports of call. Passengers currently on the South America sailing are writing in nearly daily on another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great. :cool: Best, As good as Regent is, and we have sailed with them more than any other cruise line, we still enjoy sailing on a variety of lines, including the occasional (and I really mean occasional!) voyage with RCI. We tend to make our decisions on destination, timing and value. And we have enjoyed all of the lines we have sailed with, save for NCL, Carnival and a few no-longer in existence cheapos.
