Vista is a beautiful ship. The food is lovely but it does not justify the comment “best cuisine at sea”. The cabin is lovely with a large full sized shower in the very spacious bathroom. A coffee maker would have been an extra touch in the cabins. For us, the fact there was no night time entertainment beyond 11pm was a real disappointment. Even though we are in our late 60’s and early 70’s we are not ready to retire to bed so early in the way the majority of passengers seemed quite happy with. The age demographic was also a bit of a problem on our particular itinerary

Wonderful cruise from Rio de Janiero to Buenos Aires. Vista is a luxurious ship, with excellent food, particularly in the speciality restaurants which are included in the fare. The ship was almost full with around 1100 passengers which was ideal. Entertainment was varied and we enjoyed all the show. Our add on trip to Iguazu Falls arranged by Iglu was outstanding and thoroughly recommended. The waterfalls are stunning and our tour fuid was exceptional.

Vista is the most beautiful ship we have cruised on. I would describe it as understated elegance. The staff were incredible, the food delicious and the ship itself the perfect layout and size. It never felt crowded and the outside areas were spacious with very comfortable loungers. The speciality restaurants were wonderful but we enjoyed eating in the Grand dining room equally as much. The cabin was spacious and the bathroom the largest, most stylish and best storage ever. Entertainment was varied , we particularly liked the 7 piece band. There are so many things we liked, too many to mention, we would definitely like to cruise on Vista again.

Papeete, Tahiti
DAY 2
23 Mar 2026
Time at Port: from 12 AM to 8 PM
The capital city of French Polynesia, Papeetee – which is located on the iconic island of Tahiti – is a bustling, yet picturesque, port known for its stunningly clear waters, beautiful natural scenery, and interesting attractions. Despite being a rather small island, every type of traveller will find something they can enjoy here; Papeetee has beaches for sun lounging and swimming, bustling marketplaces for culture vultures who want to soak up the atmosphere of somewhere new, museums to explore if you’re someone interested in the history of this unique culture. The Gardens of Paofai and Bougainville Park also make for excellent places to stroll, with more adventurous hiking routes available further inland. Fort de la Fachoda, which is about a 20-minute drive from central Papeete, is a particular highlight of the area; home to an impressive waterfall, this is a beautiful spot to see more of the vibrant rainforests and intriguing ruins that litter this inland area. Although, really, however you decide to spend your time in Papeete, you’re in for a fantastic shore experience.
Things to do in Papeete, Tahiti:
Gardens of Paofai
If you’re looking for a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of Papeete’s city centre, then heading to the Gardens of Paofai is far from a bad idea. Beautifully landscaped gardens in the heart of this vibrant city, this wooded area is the ideal destination to take a stroll in the shade or sit and relax.

This is the ideal place to sit and enjoy the laid-back coastal ambiance here.

If you’d rather admire from a distance, you’ll find somewhere to sit and sip on a coffee here, too.
Robert Wan Pearl Museum
Offering visitors a comprehensive look at pearls, including the process of collecting them and the legends associated with these unique cultured gems, the Robert Wan Pearl Museum is a truly fascinating place to visit when in Papeete. Immersing you in the intriguing world of pearls, with an exploration of historic individuals who held an affinity for pearls, how pearls are farmed around the world, and what it takes to spot the perfect pearl yourself, you’ll leave the Robert Wan Pearl Museum with a new appreciation for these interesting gemstones.
Bougainville Park
A small park in central Papeete, Bougainville Park is a beautiful spot to stroll when exploring this interesting city. Here, you’ll find tree-covered walkways and picturesque plant-life to admire. Once somewhere where important festivities and celebrations took place, perhaps most notably when King Pomare V ceded the islands to France in 1880, this park is now positioned as a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of this port city’s busier streets.

International Dateline (Lost Day) - Crossing
DAY 7-8
29 Mar 2026
Time at Port: TBD

Pago Pago
DAY 7
28 Mar 2026
Time at Port: from 10 AM to 8 PM
Home to one of the world’s deepest natural harbours, and capital of American Samoa, Pago Pago is an idyllic cruise destination and somewhere where a world of adventure awaits. Surrounded by vibrant tropical rainforests teeming with interesting wildlife, anyone with an explorer’s itch will feel right at home in Pago Pago; however, there’s a lot of history to learn about here too – with the area being first-settled over 4,000 years ago by Polynesian navigators. Home to the world’s largest tuna cannery, and a fishing industry worth hundreds of millions of dollars annually, it’s safe to say that fresh seafood is among the food you’ll find here – and it’s well worth taking some time to tuck into something tasty when visiting Pago Pago. You may need to remember a coat when visiting, as Pago Pago enjoys the highest annual rainfall of any harbour in the world, but the incredible experience you’ll encounter here is worth getting a little damp for.
Things to do in Pago Pago:
Blunts Point Battery
Blunts Point Battery is a fascinating site to visit when in Pago Pago, and it tells an interesting story, despite never really being used. Located on Matautu Ridge, just a stone’s throw from Pago Pago, Blunts Point Battery was built as part of the island-wide fortifications developed following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. It’s a rare example of an American Second World War Pacific coastal gun in near-pristine condition, as American Samoa was never actually attacked during the war. However, as one of the only American military bases in the western Pacific, Pago Pago and American Samoa played a pivotal role in the Second World War. While both Blunts Point Battery and further fortifications built into the hillside beneath it are open to the public, the hiking trail to reach these sites is something to consider if you’re wanting to visit. It might sound like a lot of effort, but that effort is worthwhile – if anything, just to see the stunning views from the battery itself.
Rainmaker Mountain
Rainmaker Mountain is truly a sight to behold, and something you can’t miss when visiting Pago Pago. Also known as Mount Pioa or Mount Peiva, Rainmaker Mountain boasts a three-pronged summit and finds itself directly responsible for the increased rainfall the region enjoys throughout the year. Home to numerous rare species of animal and plant, the mountain is also an important part of Samoan folklore, with Rainmaker Mountain a once-angry brother who now stands brooding – with rainclouds around his head – across Tutuila Island from Matafao Peak – the other brother, and another breathtaking mountain you can see when visiting Pago Pago.
Jean P. Haydon Museum
A fascinating museum dedicated to the culture and history of American Samoa, the Jean P. Haydon Museum boasts an incredible collection of authentic canoes, coconut-shell combs, native pharmacopoeia, and more. It’s even home to a naval cannon from HHMS Kaimiloa, the only warship in the fleet of King Kalakaua of Hawaii. The exhibits you’ll find here focus on everything from the natural history of the region and kava bowls to traditional tattooing and historic war clubs. If you’re looking to learn more about American Samoa and its people, this is a must-visit destination in Pago Pago.
Apia
DAY 8
30 Mar 2026
Time at Port: from 7 AM to 6 PM
Apia is one port of call you won’t want to miss when cruising the Pacific Ocean; the capital and largest city of Samoa, on the island of Upolu, this destination boasts breathtaking natural beauty and a rich history to uncover – something which makes it ideal for every type of traveller. The adventurous among you will find excitement in the Palolo Deep Marine Reserve, where you can snorkel, while the fascinating Robert Louis Stevenson Museum will cater to those who prefer a more laid-back experience ashore. Beyond that, you’ll find plenty of places to tuck into some delicious local cuisine, and several small pockets of sand along the northern coastline to lounge on. Apia enjoys a healthy amount of rainfall throughout the year, though, so it’s worth bringing an umbrella – even if the average temperature year-round is roughly 27 degrees.
Things to do in Apia:
Samoa Cultural Village
If you want to learn more about Samoan culture while visiting Apia, the captivating Samoa Cultural Village is the perfect place to go. Offering you a fascinating insight into the historic culture you’ll find here, this experience will give you a chance to watch traditional dances, sample traditional cuisine, and learn more about the time-honed crafting techniques practiced here. In the heart of Apia, you won’t have to travel far to find this fun and interactive experience.
Palolo Deep Marine Reserve
Found in a secluded area just a stone’s throw from Apia Port, the Palolo Deep Marine Reserve is the perfect place to discover the region’s tropical marine life. Here, you’ll have the chance to hire some snorkeling gear and see the incredible fish and coral here first-hand; however, it’s also a fantastic place for a swim or sun lounging – you’ll also find toilets and changing rooms here. So, even if you’re not sure about snorkeling, the Palolo Deep Marine Reserve is well-worth taking the time to visit.
Papapapaitai Falls
Among the tallest waterfalls in Samoa, and home to a breathtaking vantage point, Papapapaitai Falls is a fantastic place to visit if you’re looking to stretch your legs while in Apia. Standing tall at around 100 meters, the untouched rainforest surrounding this stunning natural landmark gives the area an unusual sense of mystery – while also highlighting the vibrant natural life that thrives here. It’s one of the most photographed areas in Samoa for a reason, but you really have to see it yourself to appreciate just how stunning it is.

A luscious nature reserve just a short distance from Suva, the hiking routes here are exceptional; and, if you want, you’ll be able to swim and bird-watch here too.

Among the native flora here, of which there is a lot to admire, you’ll also find some African Mahogany, which was planted here throughout the 1940s and 1950s.
Suva Fiji Temple
A rather recent addition to the architecture of Suva, having only been completed in 2000, the Suva Fiji Temple is a remarkable temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the first of its kind to be built in Fiji. Designed with traditional designs and styles in mind, it’s located at one of the highest points in the city and features a 72-foot tall spire. With subtle nods to the local culture alongside the broader symbolism utilised by the Church, it’s a sight worth seeing and stands out against much of Suva’s other architecture.
Fiji Museum
Sitting in the heart of Suva’s Thurston Gardens, stunning botanical gardens worth visiting in their own right, the Fiji Museum is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in learning more about Fiji and Fijian culture.
