Tahiti & Society Islands - 7- Night Cruise

In 1891, when Paul Gauguin arrived in Tahiti, he captured the charm, culture and languid grace of the natives in oils. You won't find his paintings here, but the original models still call this piece of French Polynesia home. This 7-night itinerary is perfect for those who want a core Polynesian experience.

Call on Raiatea and its reef-bound lagoon and Taha'a, it's companion island, where you'll enjoy a full day of exploration. Then sail to Bora Bora, and her siren sister, Moorea.

There's a reason these islands are world-renowned - their beauty is unmatched.

Paul Gauguin

The m/s Paul Gauguin was designed specifically to sail the shallow seas of Tahiti and French Polynesia, visiting small ports that larger ships can't reach and effortlessly blending into the stunning natural beauty of the South Seas. She offers an extension of the informal, relaxing environment of the islands, coupled with five-star service, comfort and luxury. Spacious suites and staterooms (more than 70% with private balconies), an onboard watersports marina, a choice of three open-seating dining venues and an extensive spa are among her luxurious attributes. The atmosphere aboard ship radiates warmth, informality, and Polynesian flair. And our beloved troupe of Gauguines—a local Tahitian group who serve as cruise staff, entertainers and storytellers—add the unique personality of Tahiti to every sailing.

Paul Gauguin Cruises

Polynesians have been greeting visitors for centuries with open arms, broad smiles, generous souls, and an infectious lyrical mirth. Paul Gauguin Cruises embodies this Polynesian spirit of welcome, warmth, and geniality.

It has infused our flagship, the m/s Paul Gauguin, for 14 years, earning the distinction of “Top 20 Small Cruise Ships" from readers of Condé Nast Traveler again in 2012—the 14th year in a row, since 1998. The Gauguin treats guests to the joyful ambiance and casual lifestyle of Tahiti, French Polynesia, and the South Pacific, on unique itineraries that draw close to idyllic ports that larger vessels simply can't approach.

We will also extend this spirit of Polynesian hospitality to the new ship in our fleet, the m/v Tere Moana—literally, “Ocean Traveler." Like The Gauguin, The Moana will specialize in warm-weather destinations, with an emphasis on delivering unique itineraries that larger ships cannot offer and exploring hidden ports throughout the Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe.

And as you explore the world with us, you'll enjoy the high standard of quality and service for which Paul Gauguin Cruises is renowned. We look forward to welcoming you aboard.
