The journey in focus
This cultural private jet journey follows an ocean rather than circling the globe. Madeira's green slopes contrast with Lanzarote's volcanic landscapes; Tangier and Dakar introduce North African and West African perspectives; Salvador and Buenos Aires reveal different South American identities. Linking these destinations gives the route a clear theme: how travel, commerce and cultural exchange have connected communities across the Atlantic.
With a published duration of 14 days, Atlantic Crossroads is the shortest journey in this featured five-program collection. It offers a distinctive choice for travelers drawn to art, food, architecture and the character of cities. Deluxe Cruises can help you review the detailed itinerary, compare room arrangements and plan around arrival in Dublin and the conclusion in Buenos Aires, including any additional time you would like to discuss.
Travelers seeking a two-week cultural expedition with both island scenery and city life. Consider Atlantic Crossroads if you are drawn to the connections between Europe, Africa and South America and want a focused alternative to a longer around-the-world private jet tour.
Tell Deluxe Cruises how many people will travel, your room preference and whether you would like extra time in Dublin or Buenos Aires. Ask for the confirmed start and finish arrangements, walking requirements, entry guidance and baggage limits, together with a complete quote for the published August 2027 departure.
Travel format: an escorted National Geographic group expedition by privately chartered aircraft, with individual places sold per person.
Follow the published 2027 route below. The descriptions introduce each destination; specific visits, hotels and activity choices depend on the selected departure. Where the route gives alternatives, they are choices rather than additional stops.
Dublin provides the opening point for an Atlantic journey that will continue through Europe, Africa and South America. The Irish capital's literary associations and maritime setting create an appropriate introduction to a route about cultural exchange. Confirm the program's start arrangements before deciding how much independent time to allow in the city.
Funchal sits on Madeira's southern coast, between Atlantic waters and steep island slopes. The Portuguese island's maritime history, garden traditions and volcanic landscape give this stop a character distinct from mainland Europe. It introduces the island thread of the journey before the route turns toward Morocco and the southern Atlantic world.
Tangier stands near the meeting of the Atlantic and Mediterranean, with Europe visible across the Strait of Gibraltar in clear conditions. Its history reflects this position between regions, expressed in Moroccan urban life and longstanding international connections. The stage brings North African culture into the route before the return to Atlantic island landscapes.
Lanzarote's volcanic terrain gives the Atlantic journey a striking change of scenery. Dark lava landscapes, a dry climate and distinctive whitewashed architecture contribute to the island's visual identity. As part of Spain's Canary Islands, it also illustrates the Atlantic's overlapping island, African and European geographies without resembling the greener landscapes of Madeira.
Dakar occupies the western edge of the African mainland, facing the Atlantic from Senegal's Cape Verde Peninsula. The city brings a contemporary West African perspective to the journey through its cultural life and coastal setting. Its position makes it a compelling point for considering the ocean's connections before the itinerary crosses to Brazil.
Salvador introduces a Brazilian city where Afro-Brazilian culture is central to local identity. The historic urban landscape, Atlantic setting and traditions of music and food distinguish it from the journey's earlier stops. This stage deepens the route's transatlantic theme, connecting present-day cultural expression with a complex history of movement between Africa and the Americas.
Buenos Aires concludes the route beside the Río de la Plata, bringing broad avenues, distinctive neighborhoods and Argentine cultural life into focus. Its architecture and tango associations offer a different South American setting from Salvador. Review the final program arrangements before booking your homeward flight or planning additional time in the city.

Its route follows an Atlantic theme from Dublin to Buenos Aires, linking islands and cities in Europe, Africa and South America. The emphasis is on connections across one ocean rather than a global circuit. Madeira, Tangier, Lanzarote, Dakar and Salvador give the journey its distinctive cultural and geographical sequence.
The published route begins in Dublin and finishes in Buenos Aires. Arrange your independent flights around those different cities, using confirmed start and finish timings. If you wish to spend additional time in either place, tell Deluxe Cruises before finalizing your travel plans.
They offer contrasting Atlantic settings. Madeira is associated with steep green landscapes and Portuguese island culture, while Lanzarote is known for drier volcanic scenery and its Canary Islands identity. This contrast is part of the route's appeal; specific sightseeing arrangements should be checked against the departure you choose.
The combination of Moroccan, Senegalese, Brazilian and Argentine cities creates rich cultural context, alongside the European and island stages. It may suit travelers who enjoy comparing architecture, traditions and urban life. Ask for the detailed program if particular museums, performances or artistic interests will determine your choice.
Plan for different climates rather than one beach-weather wardrobe. The route spans northern and southern hemispheres and includes cities, islands and historic areas. Comfortable walking shoes, adaptable layers and respectful clothing for cultural settings are useful starting points; confirm seasonal guidance and baggage allowances for your departure.
