In collaboration with The Explorers Club—an organization renowned for supporting scientific research, conservation, and trailblazing expeditions to the farthest reaches of the globe, this unique voyage will feature Jad Davenport, a National Geographic photographer, filmmaker, and author with a special love for the South Pacific.

Let French Polynesia's destination expert guide you through an unforgettable exploration of the Tuamotus and Society Islands. Discover the ethereal beauty of the Tuamotu atolls, where crystalline lagoons harbor underwater gardens bursting with marine life. The majestic Society Islands beckon with Huahine's emerald jungles and Raiatea's rich spiritual heritage. At the heart of this 11-night voyage lies an indulgent double overnight stay in Bora Bora, where the iconic silhouette of Mount Otemanu stands sentinel over her world-famous lagoon.

Highlights

  • Jad Davenport, a celebrated member of The Explorers Club for over 20 years and a National Geographic photographer, writer, and filmmaker, will be joining us as a special guest speaker on our journey through French Polynesia.
  • Experience pure Polynesian bliss on Motu Mahana, our exclusive retreat in Taha'a's sheltered lagoon. Paddle to our whimsical floating bar, unwind under swaying palms, feast on local delicacies, and breathe in the sweet essence of vanilla carried on the tropical breeze.
  • Plunge into the pristine waters of Fakarava, a UNESCO Marine Biosphere Reserve, then witness nature's artistry in Rangiroa's living "aquarium," where rainbow-hued fish dance through crystal-clear waters.

Embarkation 29/05/2027 from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Departure 29/05/2027 at 6:30 PM


The largest of French Polynesia's 118 islands, Tahiti and it's capital city of Papeete are the perfect place to begin (and/or end) your South Pacific sojourn. The Gauguin waits patiently in the harbor, a vibrant and bustling market across the street and in the evenings roulottes (food trucks) line the nearby square offering tasty local fare.

Huahine, Society Islands

May 30, 2027 Huahine, Society Islands


Arrival 30/05/2027 at 7:30 AM

Don’t be fooled by the vibe of this laid-back, secluded island. Many treasures are hidden among the lush rainforest and dramatic terrain.

Raiatea, Society Islands

Departure 31/05/2027


Blanketed in a lush landscape dotted with waterfalls, fertile valleys, and the cloud-capped Mt. Temehani, Raiatea is Polynesia’s most sacred island; it was from here that the earliest migrations set forth to settle in Hawaii, New Zealand, and beyond. The island boasts a rich Maohi history–it is home to the UNESCO-listed Marae Taputapuatea archaeological site–verdant mountains ideal for hiking, and a stunning lagoon perfect for snorkeling, swimming, and soaking up the heavenly tranquility.

Like a priceless Paul Gauguin painting come to life, storied Bora Bora is colorful and unforgettable. The landscape alone will have you searching for adequate adjectives, especially once you see the lagoon—“turquoise” just doesn’t do it justice. 

 

*Subject to availability as conditions allow. When unable to call there, we will be offering a tender to the pier and a free shuttle to Matira Beach, the island’s award-winning public beach that features restaurants, public facilities and shopping. Voted #1 in the best things to do in Bora Bora by U.S. News & World Report, Matira Beach boasts powdery white sand, waters in a thousand shades of blue, and is wonderfully uncrowded.

m/s Paul Gauguin

Designed specifically to glide in luxury through the shallow seas of the South Pacific, The Gauguin is a small-ship cruiser’s dream. She delivers travelers to intimate ports inaccessible to larger cruise ships, all the while providing a travel experience that is nothing short of luxurious. Once on board, guests enjoy newly-decorated spacious suites and staterooms (nearly 70% with private balconies), an onboard watersports marina, three dining venues, an extensive spa, and five-star service. Life on The Gauguin also reflects the beauty and rich cultural heritage of the islands she calls upon, with a warm, friendly feel, informal setting, and even a beloved troupe of Les Gauguins and Les Gauguines—local Tahitians who serve as onboard hosts and hostesses, entertainers, and storytellers.
