Dear Traveler,


Over the 25 years that I’ve been welcoming guests to the shores of Tahiti, I’ve been amazed by the number of people who’ve told me that they had always dreamed of visiting French Polynesia—but wonder why it took them so long to get here!


Only about an eight-hour flight from Los Angeles (about the same distance as Europe), Tahiti is much closer than you think. And I can assure you that there’s no better way to experience the unsurpassed beauty, warm hospitality, and exotic culture of French Polynesia than aboard our very special ship, the m/s Paul Gauguin. No other ship brings you closer to the soul of the South Seas.


Aboard this special vessel, you’ll enjoy the highest standard in best-in-class amenities. I think Kathy Stacken of Topeka, Kansas, put it best when she said, “Te ship and its crew exceeded our expectations. Of course, this can be hard to do, because it always has been the best cruise ship ever, in my opinion.”
