Bridging the Old and New Worlds, World Navigator will depart October 4, 2021, on a 13-night voyage, from Lisbon, Portugal. Guests will follow the winds of colonial explorers and call at some of the Atlantic's most beautiful islands, including Madeira, Tenerife, St. Lucia and Barbados.

From Barbados, a 10-night itinerary, departing October 19, will bring guests on an epic equatorial crossing, via the north coast of South America, to Recife, Brazil. On this journey, World Navigator contrasts the charm of small and elegant Tobago Island against French Guiana's rugged Devil's Island, en route to the historic and colorful cultures of Brazil's Fortaleza and Natal metropolises and the mouth of the mighty Amazon at Belem.

The subsequent, 13-night journey, departing October 29 from Recife, to Montevideo, Uruguay. Guest visit laid-back Brazilian ports of Buzios, and Paraty; explore the steep, cobblestone streets of one of South America's oldest colonial cities, Salvador de Bahia; and revel in Uruguay's resort city of Punta del Este. World Navigator guests also enjoy overnights in Rio de Janiero and in Itajai, where samba and adventure await.

Adventurers and like-spirited travelers can also explore the ecological diversity of Patagonia and the Falkland Islands on World Navigator's November 11 departure from Montevideo. This eight-night itinerary provides a late-night stay in Buenos Aires for guests to immerse in the city's art, culture, and architecture, and savor dinner and a tango, before heading to Patagonia's northernmost city, Puerto Madryn, and the Falkland Islands for incomparable wildlife-spotting of large indigenous birds, whales, sea lions and seals, five species of penguins, and more. World Navigator then charts a course towards Tiera del Fuego to begin her inaugural winter-2021/22, Antarctica Expeditions season.

World Navigator's construction in Portugal is on schedule and the ship will launch in mid-2021. Safety is the basic building block for the Polar Category-C and Ice Class-1B, expedition ship, and all of the most-modern hygiene and cleanliness measures are incorporated into World Navigator's design. The ship also utilizes underwater, forward-looking sonar to confidently navigate coastal, harbor and icy polar waters. In addition to propeller propulsion, World Navigator's alternate hydrojet propulsion system, helps guests quietly cruise into wildlife-rich waters without disturbing marine wildlife. Furthermore, Atlas Ocean Voyages' ships are among the first to employ the latest conservation and sustainability technologies – leaving nothing behind but footprints– to help preserve the breathtaking locales and waters they ply for future generations to enjoy. The ship's Rolls-Royce hybrid power management and propulsion system maximizes World Navigator's fuel efficiency, consuming as low as one-fifth the fuel compared to cruise ships with conventional systems.
