Paul Gauguin Cruises, a specialist in French Polynesian destinations, has announced its 2027 voyages. The cruise line will offer 34 voyages ranging from 7 to 20 nights, exploring the Society Islands, Tuamotus, Marquesas, Cook Islands, and the South Pacific on 10 unique itineraries. These include the Boutique Crossing Collection, comprised of three voyages of 13, 17, and 20 nights between Singapore, Australia, Fiji, and Bali.
The itineraries, designed for up to 330 guests aboard the beloved m/s Paul Gauguin, will allow them to discover unique destinations. The ship will re-emerge in April after a multi-million dollar refurbishment. Those who book early can enjoy fares starting at $2,960 per person, with an additional savings of up to 30%.
“Our 2027 voyages represent the art of exploration at its finest, from our immersive 7-night Society Islands itineraries to our exclusive Boutique Crossing Collection, with voyages of up to 20 nights exploring Fiji, Bali and beyond,” said Samuel Chamberlain, CEO of the Americas for PONANT EXPLORATIONS GROUP, parent company of Paul Gauguin Cruises.
“As experts in French Polynesia, we design each itinerary to offer an authentic glimpse into each destination. Strategic overnight stays on board and extended port calls are not just stops on the map, but gateways to a deeper understanding, allowing our guests to experience these destinations like locals, not visitors. This is the difference that comes from calling these waters home for over 25 years, and the reason why discerning travelers consistently choose us to discover the South Pacific.”
