Dear Traveler,
Even though it’s still early in 2010, at Paul Gauguin Cruises, we’re already looking ahead to next year. When we started making our plans for 2011, we listened to guests of the m/s Paul Gauguin to find out why they chose Paul Gauguin Cruises—and what we could do to make sure that every sailing continues to be the cruise of a lifetime.
During my recent President’s Cruise aboard the m/s Paul Gauguin, I was gratified that so many people told me, “Just keep doing what you’re doing.” One couple, Martin and Linda Ashley, enjoy the experience so much, they’re planning their twelfth voyage with us! (You can see their story on page 33.)
So, the biggest change you’ll find in this preview of our 2011 line-up is that we’re focusing even more on the region we know best: Tahiti, French Polynesia, and the Cook Islands, by adding even more sailings and offering you a powerful incentive to join us aboard:
FREE airfare from Los Angeles plus 2-for-1 cruise fares on all 2011 sailings

SMALL LUXURY CRUISE SHIP
CONDÉ NAST TRAVELER
We think you’ll agree with, Mr. and Mrs. Chittick, who recently wrote us to say, “We drank in the unspoiled beauty of French Polynesia for ten days while we were utterly spoiled by sumptuous meals and other services provided for us by your staff and crew. Thank you for making our 30th wedding anniversary trip so special.”
Join us in 2011, and discover why readers of Condé Nast Traveler named the m/s Paul Gauguin “Top 3 Small Luxury Cruise Ship” in 2009. With only 332 guests per sailing— coupled with extraordinary savings—space is bound to fill up fast. For best selection of
