Ponant
Discover Ponant
Passengers will enjoy the intimate small yacht environment on the two cruise types offered by Ponant: a ‘5-Star Culture and Relaxation Cruise’ or a ‘5-Star Expedition’. An expedition immerses you in the National Geographic World and its wealth of expertise; access a National Geographic photographer or pick the brain of a local National Geographic Expert.
The Ponant experience
- Truly original itineraries in exceptional destinations, designed in-house.
- Access to the Blue Eye – a World First underwater lounge.
- The Open Bridge Policy* means guests can visit the bridge to learn about navigating the oceans.
