Paul Gauguin has been cruising in Tahiti for 25 years! They are the experts in Tahiti and have close relationships with the tour operators in this area! If you are going to Tahiti - do it right and go with the specialists!
Vicky started by giving us a great brand overview. We learned about their luxury ship that sails exclusively in this area all year round.

They hold the title of the longest deployment of a vessel in one area! They have relationships with the tour operators in the areas they visit. They are the ones that can get you into the heart of the areas you are visiting.

.

The French Polynesia is closer than you think!

To Papeete, Tahiti

from Los Angeles (LAX): 8 hours (non-stop)

Tokyo: 11 hours (non-stop)

Paris: : 21 hours

Honolulu: 5 hours (non-stop)

Auckland: 5 hours (non-stop)

Sydney is 7 hours


The secret to their success is how close they get you to the islands. Their ship has a shallow draft, and you can get up much closer to the island than the other ships that visit this area. This ship was built for Tahiti.

Why Paul Gauguin Cruises? They offer an Intimate, Small-Ship Experience.

Many destinations will be tendered, so being on a small ship is a very fast way to get ashore! No line ups with Paul Gauguin.

.

We touched on all of the restaurants onboard. Lots of great options with local food whenever possible!

.

Paul Gauguin has watersports equipment available for you to use free of charge - including Kayaking, paddleboards and Snorkel gear. You will be able to enjoy the crystal clear water this way! You can also get your PADI licence while onboard and swim with a certified diver.

Paul Gauguin has a private beach experience in Bora Bora! This is a highlight of every guest!
