Showcasing Cruises in Tahiti, French Polynesia, the Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe
Paul Gauguin Cruises (www.pgcruises.com), operator of the highest-rated and longest continually sailing luxury cruise ship in the South Pacific, the m/s Paul Gauguin, and the newly acquired m/v Tere Moana, debuts its colorful and comprehensive 2013 Voyages by Gauguin brochure. The 86-page brochure showcases a variety of dream cruises to enchanting destinations and can be viewed on-line at www.pgcruises.com/e-brochure.
The brochure outlines five award-winning itineraries in French Polynesia that are available aboard the elegantly renovated Gauguin and 13 new itineraries encompassing the Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe on the cruise line’s new luxury small ship, The Moana. Detailed itineraries are grouped by region and include cruise schedules, maps, highlights, and fares.
The Gauguin’s voyages in exotic French Polynesia feature a host of exquisite islands with white-sand beaches, aqua lagoons, mist-laden mountains, and warm Polynesian culture. Itineraries include: 7-night Tahiti & the Society Islands; 10-night Society Islands & Tuamotus; 11-night Cook Islands & Society Islands; 11-night Australs & Society Islands; and 14-night Marquesas, Tuamotus & Society Islands.
December and March, The Moana offers 7-night Caribbean voyages roundtrip from St. Martin visiting a mix of sophisticated islands and unspoiled gems in the French West Indies, British Virgin Islands, and St. Kitts & Nevis. In January and February, The Moana’s 13- and 14-night Latin American cruises feature a classic transit of the Panama Canal; Cartagena, Columbia; and the wildlife reserves of Costa Rica.
From April through November, The Moana operates a variety of European voyages. Highlights include 7-night cruises in the Black Sea and Greek Isles; a roundtrip Spanish Coast voyage; and scenic sailings along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast and French and Italian Rivieras. Three special voyages transit Greece’s Corinth Canal—an experience available only to small ships like The Moana.
