If heaven were a place on Earth, French Polynesia would probably be it. It has always fascinated and moved all those who have stepped foot on it. Its nature and culture have the power to enchant, and have been creating extraordinary landscapes and recounting ancestral legends for thousands of years. The Marquesas, steeped in mystery and a source of inspiration to artists like Jacques Brel or Paul Gauguin, will unveil their wild and mystical soul, between majestic cliffs and lush green valleys. Go back in time to encounter Tikis on the sacred Te I'ipona archaeological site on the island of Hiva Oa, or to see the “petroglyphs” on Nuku Hiva.
A mosaic of French Polynesia’s most beautiful archipelagos between the Society Islands, Tuamotu and the legendary Marquesas.
Discover Marquesan history and its giant sculptures on Hiva Oa, its ancestral handicrafts at Fatu Hiva and Polynesian landscapes (Fakarava lagoon and other paradisical sites).
Included activities designed and operated with local guides and transport or led by our naturalist guides, subject to capacity.
Papeete will be your gateway to the tropical paradise of French Polynesia, where islands fringed with gorgeous beaches and turquoise ocean await to soothe the soul. This spirited city is the capital of French Polynesia, and serves as a superb base for onward exploration of Tahiti – an island of breathtaking landscapes and oceanic vistas. Wonderful lagoons of crisp, clear water beg to be snorkelled, stunning black beaches and blowholes pay tribute to the island's volcanic heritage, and lush green mountains beckon you inland on adventures, as you explore extraordinary Tahiti. Visit to relax inside picturesque stilted huts, which stand out over shimmering water, as you settle into the intoxicating rhythm of life, in this Polynesian paradise.

In keeping with the philosophy of PONANT and the PONANT EXPLORERS, Le Jacques-Cartier combines the desire for adventure with five-star travel. A modern ship with slender, tapered lines, it is environmentally friendly and equipped with innovative technology.
Tastefully decorated, Le Jacques-Cartier reflects the universe so dear to PONANT, with its light tones and open-to-the-sea design providing soft light and luminosity at every instant of the day. Its ethnic chic ambiance pays homage to the destinations we visit.
Located below the waterline, the Blue Eye, the first ever multisensorial lounge, offers a unique experience: the opportunity to enjoy undersea views and the sounds of the marine world whilst sharing a glass together.
