Itinerary

1. 1

   Los Angeles, California

   Departs 03:00 pm.

   The City of Angels always hovers between dream and reality. Once a near-forgotten colonial outpost, the pueblo metamorphosed into an agrarian paradise before reinventing itself as a movie colony. Perhaps no other city owes so much to the technological innovations of the 20th century, from the automobile to the airplane. Little wonder that LA is oft described as the "dream machine." In LA, reinvention is a way of life. Yet this talent for change has created a city with a rich ethnic diversity and a sizzling culture. LA is the source for trends that migrate across the country and then the world. Where else can you enjoy a Thai taco or munch on a kosher burrito? Or travel from downtown's high rises to the beaches of Malibu, shopping in Beverly Hills along the way? Los Angeles is a port of embarkation and disembarkation for some cruises.

3. 3

   Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

   Arrives 01:00 pm.

   Millennia ago, Cabo San Lucas was part of the Mexican mainland. Then a massive rupture of the San Andreas Fault sent the waters of the Pacific crashing into the newly formed depression, creating the Sea of Cortez and the Baja Peninsula. Lying at the very tip of Baja, where the Pacific meets the Sea of Cortez, Cabo San Lucas - or "Cabo" - is one of the premier resort destinations in the Western Hemisphere. Swim in the transparent waters, marvel at the wealth of marine life, relax on one of the white-sand beaches or try your hand at some of the finest sportfishing in the world.Note: Your ship will anchor in Cabo San Lucas and use launches to transport all passengers ashore.

5. 5

   La Paz, Mexico

   Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

   When Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes sailed into this quiet little bay in 1535, he tried to establish a colony called Santa Cruz. He later abandoned it but, luckily, Sebastian Vizcaino arrived in 1596, renamed it La Paz and the colony has flourished ever since. Here, you'll find a playground of activities that Cortes couldn't even dream of. From a festive downtown full of attractions to sun-drenched beaches, renowned for their soft, golden sand, to warm, inviting water teeming with marine life, La Paz offers a little bit of everything for everybody. And isn't that what vacations are all about!?

6. 6

   Guaymas, Mexico

   Arrives 09:00 am, departs 06:00 pm.

   A land of endless surprises, Guaymas is a laid-back charmer and a quieter alternative to other towns along the Sonoran coast. Variety is a way of life here and so are the activities. With the Sea of Cortex at its doorstep, it’s easy to cruise into its welcoming waters in search of marine life or to lounge on the beach in nearby San Carlos. There’s plenty to do beyond the beach, too. Weave your way through Guaymas’s less-trodden streets, step back in time as you tour the neoclassic San Fernando Church and the Moorish 13 de Julio Plaza in the historic town center, visit a world class pearl farm or journey to magical Las Barajitas Canyon, a pristine area of beach, desert and mountains. Guaymas offers a little bit of everything you’re looking for and isn’t that what vacation’s all about?

7. 7

   At Sea

8. 8

   Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

   Arrives 08:00 am, departs 05:00 pm.

   Puerto Vallarta was sleepy no more; its transformation into an international resort had begun. Then director John Huston chose the village as the location for his film "Night of the Iguana," starring Richard Burton. Today, the city has its own "Gringo Gulch," a haunt of the rich and famous. Travelers are also drawn by its climate, its excellent shopping - which offers great values on leather goods, jewelry, and handicrafts - and mile after mile of palm-lined beaches.
