Once the original capital of Saint Lucia, Soufrière lies within the Qualibou Depression, the crater of a dormant volcano. Visitors can unwind in mud baths, explore sulphur springs, and marvel at the iconic lava domes, Gros Piton and Petit Piton.

The World Heritage-listed city of Cartagena is a beautifully preserved walled city full of churches, monasteries, bustling plazas and colourful terraces with balconies draped in bougainvillea.

Renowned for vibrant festivals and exquisite cuisine, Cartagena is a treasure trove of Latin American culture and history. Wander its Old Town, with cobblestone streets that are frequented by artisans and food vendors touting tropical fruits. The surrounding landscape of pristine beaches, tropical forests and a 17th century fortress adds to its allure.

Day 10
Guna Yala, also known as the San Blas Islands, is governed by Panama’s Guna Indigenous people, who work tirelessly to ensure this pocket of paradise is preserved and protected for future generations. The narrow territory is made up of 365 islands, of which only 50 are inhabited by Guna people – the rest are blissfully unpeopled and untouched.

Look out for stalls selling molas, a traditional textile made from layers of coloured fabric crafted to form patterns and pictures inspired by their cosmogenic beliefs – these one-of-a-kind souvenirs are as eye-catching as they are intricate.

Scenic Discovery: Join your Discovery Team for a kayak or stand-up paddleboard excursion, spending the day exploring the sparkling waters of this stunning archipelago. Paddle through breathtaking scenery, swim or snorkel over vibrant coral reefs, and then relax on a sandy beach under a palm tree, soaking in the beauty around you.

Day 11
Today, we are passing through the Panama Canal, the most famous attraction in Panama. Considered as one of the ‘Seven Wonders of the Modern World’, this canal was built to significantly decrease the travel time for ships between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea.

Later, you may choose to rejuvenate in the expansive Senses Spa#. Choose to indulge in a range of treatments and wellness experiences, including massages and facials, body wraps and scrubs, manicures, and pedicures. Alternatively, take time out on one of the thermal lounges designed to purify your body.

As dusk falls, the hardest decision you have to make is which direction to wander. Elements is the main dining experience, where the menu ranges from Italian to steak and seafood. Or, journey to France at Lumiere (available by on board reservation), replete with a champagne bar, or dine in the privacy of your suite, choosing from a comprehensive 24-hour menu.

Day 12
Your unforgettable journey concludes in the dynamic capital of Panama, where a striking skyline of modern skyscrapers meets the colonial charm of 17th-century churches and historic plazas. A melting pot of cultures, this cosmopolitan city is alive with history, vibrant markets, and a thriving culinary scene.
