SMALL SHIP LATIN AMERICA CRUISES





Experience Latin America in Windstar Style
Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Belize, Panama…this region is a literal who’s who of the world’s most biodiverse nations. From giant iguanas to howler monkeys, you’ll want to make sure you have your binoculars.
Meet the farmers who grow traditional Inca crops in the shadow of Machu Picchu. Travel through the jungle to meet the Ngobe-Buglé people in Bocas del Toro and the Embera Indians near Colón.
Experience the magic of a nighttime walk among nocturnal animals in the Curi-Cancha Reserve in Monteverde. Swim with pufferfish and sea turtles on tiny Isla San Andres, part of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
On Costa Rica cruises you’ll be accompanied by onboard naturalists who will help you understand the flora, fauna and ecosystems you encounter.
Our Latin America itineraries take you to at least 20 UNESCO World Heritage Sites and Biosphere Reserves including Machu Picchu, the Galapagos, Cartagena, Portobelo, Cusco, Lima, Quito and Chan Chan.






Get Closer to Latin America
A journey through Latin America is a journey into the wondrous and the improbable. Come and discover civilizations that thrived on high mountain peaks and in thick jungle, colonial treasures, an oasis of unique species in the Galapagos, cloud forests, steaming volcanoes, the Panama Canal, and stunning beaches that beckon with whisper-soft sand and rum punch. Dive into the history of civilizations that changed the world. And relax on some of the most beautiful islands and coastlines the Americas have to offer.
Windstar Takes You Where No Other Cruise Can
When you’re looking for things like capuchin monkeys in a rainforest, hidden Embera Indian villages, or the softest alpaca chullo hats, you need to get close. And nobody gets you closer than Windstar. We give you a unique perspective on the amazing Panama Canal as you view the locks and gates at eye level from our yachts. And we take you to must-sees like Machu Picchu, Lima, and Cartagena, as well as to tiny islands in pristine marine reserves, misty cloud forests and volcanoes, and the waters of Golfo Dulce where humpback whales play.
