As most of the continent is located below the equator, the seasons are reversed from the northern hemisphere. As such, most discount cruises to South America sail between November and April, when temperatures are largely between the 60s and 80s. With so many vibrant and historic coastal cities around South America, most itineraries include several countries, like Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, and Ecuador. Highlights include taking a cable car up Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro for a superb view of the city, ogling beautiful wildlife in the Amazon, and sailing past glaciers and penguins around Tierra del Fuego, the closest landmass to Antarctica.
