Africa Queen: the Bijagos Archipelago

As of the 18th century only few navigators ventured to this vast area of the South Pacific between Chile and French Polynesia. Today we are one of them, on a discovery of the mythical islands made famous by South Seas adventurers. The cruise begins in Valparaiso, the Chilean port once a pit stop for Cape Horners, a charming town on a hill covered with wooden houses reached by elevators from another time period. After two weeks, the Austral reaches Robinson Crusoe Island, where long ago a shipwreck on its deserted shores inspired Daniel Defoe to write his famous novel. Then onto Easter Island (Rapa Nui in Polynesian) with its mysterious giant statues, the Moais, and Pitcairn Island, where the mutinous of the Bounty found refuge after leaving Tahiti -- where our voyage comes to an end.
