Day 12 – Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida
Arrives 06:00 am, departs 06:00 pm.
The vibrant gateway to Florida’s Space Coast, Port Canaveral is a place where adventure awaits at every turn. With an abundance of out-of-this-world activities, it can be hard to know where to begin. However, most visitors choose to start their thrilling journey on the sunny shores with a visit to the renowned Kennedy Space Center, a spaceport and visitor complex operated by NASA. Immerse yourself in exhibits and interactive displays that offer a fascinating glimpse into the history and future of space exploration. But the excitement doesn’t end there. Your day continues to look up at the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, covering over 140,000 acres of unspoiled wilderness. It serves as a safe haven for a diverse array of plants and animals, making it a birdwatcher’s dream. From the skies to the waterways, you can glide along the Indian River Lagoon and Banana River on a nature cruise in search of playful dolphins and majestic manatees. Alternatively, you can visit the iconic shores of Cocoa Beach, known as the surfing capital of the East Coast and the home of Major Anthony Nelson and Jeannie from the popular 1960s television series “I Dream of Jeannie.” Offering a golden-sand coastline, an abundance of natural adventures, and historical and cultural delights, Port Canaveral will unlock a magical adventure all your own.
Day 13 – Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
Arrives 06:00 am, departs 06:00 pm.
According to the popular 1960 beach movie, Fort Lauderdale is “where the boys are.” The city’s reputation as America’s Spring Break capital, however, has been replaced with the more favorable image of a prime family tourist destination, attracting more than 10 million visitors annually. The most popular beach resort in Florida is even more rightly famed as the “Yachting Capital of the World,” with more than 40,000 registered crafts calling its waters home. The city also prides itself on being the “Venice of America” with more than 300 miles of navigable waterways. Fort Lauderdale boasts world-class theaters, museums, sightseeing, and shopping. The city sits 24 miles north of Miami and is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale, who was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. Look hard and you might find remnants of three of them today. More people seem to be interested in taking a water tour aboard the “Carrie B.”

Day 18 – Barbados
Arrives 07:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.
Barbados is one of the few Caribbean islands solely colonized by one nation. It’s no wonder Bajans describe their country as being “more English than England sheself,” surnames like Worthing and Hastings abound. But look around and you know you’re not in England: rich and fertile tropical fields meet a glistening, azure sea. The soft pastels of old chattel houses blend with the vibrant reds, oranges, and greens of roadside fruit stands. In short, Barbados exudes a charm all its own. Perhaps it is due to Bajan culture, that celebrated blend of English tradition and the African heritage brought to the island by slaves imported to work the sugar plantations. The potent brew which results flavors every aspect of island life, from music, dance and art, to religion, language and food.

Brazil’s fifth largest city began life in 1654 as the Dutch fortress of Shoonenbroch. Soon captured by the Portuguese, the citadel was renamed Fortaleza de Pequena de Braganca. While Fortaleza has been the capital of Ceara State since 1799, the city’s true growth came in the second half of the 20th century as Brazilians began flocking to Northeastern Brazil, drawn by the area’s superb climate and beaches. Today, Fortaleza is a thriving city of some two million souls.Ceara State was the first state in Brazil to abolish slavery at the end of the 19th century. While travelers instinctively head for such famous beaches as Cumbuco, historic Fortaleza offers treasures of its own.
