The “Charms of the Brazilian Coastline” leaves Salvador de Bahia on the 31st of October for a five-day round-trip voyage, exploring laid-back beach paradise Itacaré, the wildlife wonderland of the Abrolhos Archipelago Marine Park, and mesmerizing car-free Morro de São Paulo. The price of this restorative well-being voyage starts from £1,960 per person, inclusive of the full Chopra Well-Being Package (two sharing but only one needing to opt for “Explore & Restore”).
Soul, Samba and Sea: Journey to the Heart of Brazil leaves Salvador on the 4th of November. Following the Brazilian coast over 6 nights all the way down to Rio de Janeiro, this inspiring voyage takes in Itacaré, Trancoso with its UNESCO-protected main square and sandy white beaches, the Abrolhos Archipelago Marine Park and then cosmopolitan Búzios, known as the St. Tropez of Brazil. Prices start from £2,988 per person, inclusive of the complete Chopra Well-being Package (two sharing but only one needing to opt for “Explore & Restore”).
The included activities and itinerary are created for inner-exploration both on board and ashore. They include daily yoga, meditation sessions, breathwork, group connection and post-excursion reflection, as well as self-discovery workshops, self-care practices and nourishing Ayurveda-inspired meals.
A key feature of “Explore & Restore” is that it unfolds in parallel with the Swan Hellenic cultural expedition cruise experience. This means guests can enjoy different choices together. So, wellness retreat fans can finally enjoy a vacation together with partners and friends that have quite different passions, knowing they will be equally thrilled.
