Ports of Call

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Buenos Aires, Argentina
Buenos Aires is not a city you simply see; it's a city you feel. A captivating blend of grand European architecture and passionate Latin American soul, its character unfolds in its distinct neighborhoods, or *barrios*. With only a day, strategic focus is essential.
Buenos Aires, Argentina


The elegant Recoleta district is a must for its Parisian-style boulevards and, most famously, the Recoleta Cemetery. This city of the dead is an astonishing labyrinth of ornate mausoleums, including the final resting place of Eva Perón. Nearby, the MALBA (Museum of Latin American Art of Buenos Aires) in Palermo offers a superb collection, including works by Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, for a modern cultural immersion.
Buenos Aires, Argentina


For a completely different atmosphere, head to La Boca. Its Caminito, a vibrant street museum of brightly painted tenement houses, is undeniably tourist-focused but remains an iconic photo opportunity. Here, tango dancers perform on the cobblestones, offering a glimpse into the dance that defines the city's spirit. A more authentic vibe can be found in the historic San Telmo neighborhood, with its colonial buildings, antique shops, and bustling Sunday street market. It’s the perfect place to wander and soak in the city's bohemian heart.

No visit is complete without indulging in the culinary scene. A classic *parrilla* (steakhouse) experience is essential; the quality of Argentine beef, paired with a bold Malbec, lives up to its legendary reputation. For a quicker bite, savory empanadas are a staple. The city is vast, so using a taxi or ride-share service is the most efficient way to navigate between these distinct districts. We recommend choosing two neighborhoods to explore deeply rather than attempting to see everything in a rush.
Buenos Aires Buenos Aires, Argentina Buenos Aires, Argentina Buenos Aires, Argentina Buenos Aires, Argentina Buenos Aires, Argentina

Montevideo, Uruguay

Palacio Salvo in downtown Montevideo, Uruguay
Montevideo presents a compelling, more tranquil alternative to its bustling neighbor, Buenos Aires. It’s a city of subtle charms and faded European grandeur, best appreciated at a leisurely pace. Fortunately, the cruise port is perfectly positioned for independent exploration, located at the edge of the Ciudad Vieja (Old Town).

From the pier, a short walk brings you into a grid of historic streets lined with Art Deco and Neoclassical buildings. The heart of the old city is Plaza Independencia, a grand square watched over by the iconic Palacio Salvo. While the city lacks a single blockbuster attraction, its appeal lies in the aggregate: the quiet courtyards, the independent bookshops, and the relaxed café culture.
Sacromonte winery tour, Montevideo, Uruguay


The undeniable highlight for most day visitors is the Mercado del Puerto. More than a market, this historic iron-and-glass hall is a temple to Uruguayan barbecue, or *parrilla*. The air is thick with the savory smoke of grilling meats. We recommend finding a seat at the counter of one of the many bustling eateries, ordering a variety of cuts, and pairing it with a glass of the nation’s signature Tannat wine. It’s a quintessential and deeply satisfying local experience.

For a sense of the city’s soul, take a taxi or a long walk along a portion of the Rambla, the nearly 14-mile-long coastal promenade. Here, you’ll see Montevideanos jogging, fishing, and sipping *mate*, offering a genuine slice of daily life against the backdrop of the vast Río de la Plata. Montevideo doesn’t shout for your attention; it rewards those who take the time to listen.
Exterior of Mercado del Puerto, Montevideo, Uruguay Montevideo, Uruguay

At Sea - Cruising

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Rio de Janeiro, the *Cidade Maravilhosa* (Marvelous City), unfolds dramatically between granite peaks and the Atlantic, offering a day of unforgettable sensory experiences. Your visit is a study in breathtaking perspectives, beginning with an ascent of Corcovado mountain. A scenic cog train carries you through the dense Tijuca rainforest to the base of Christ the Redeemer, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. From this iconic vantage point, the entire city—from the deep blue of Guanabara Bay to the Maracanã stadium—is laid out before you.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil


For an equally stunning, but distinctly different, panorama, take the two-stage glass cable car to the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain. The 360-degree view allows you to trace the famous crescent of Copacabana beach and appreciate the unique geography that defines Rio. Back at sea level, immerse yourself in the city’s vibrant soul on the world-famous shores of Ipanema and Copacabana. These beaches are Rio’s living rooms; stroll the iconic wave-patterned promenade, watch locals play *futevôlei* (footvolley), and savor a fresh coconut water. For a dose of artistic passion, seek out the Escadaria Selarón, a brilliantly colored mosaic staircase connecting the Lapa and Santa Teresa neighborhoods. And if you desire a tranquil escape, the lush Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden provides a serene oasis with its majestic Imperial Palms and thousands of exotic plant species.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
  • Lost/stolen travel documents
  • Pre-trip information
  • Prescription replacements
