Paul Gauguin Cruises has released a preview of its 2024 itineraries, which include two, all-new voyages in the South Pacific region. The company is also announcing early booking bonus savings up up to 30 per cent.
Reservations open on 22SEP for the 33 voyages offered on the m/s Paul Gauguin on seven itineraries – two of them brand new – exploring Tahiti, French Polynesia, Fiji, and the South Pacific. Travelers who book early can enjoy up to 30 percent in bonus savings on all-inclusive fares starting at USD $2,990 per guest on cruises of 7, 10, 11, and 14 nights.
All voyages travel round-trip from Papeete, Tahiti, except for two 14-night itineraries between Papeete and Lautoka, Fiji that cross the International Date Line.

New for 2024 are a 7-night More Society Islands & Tahiti itinerary featuring the cruise line's return to Raiatea; and a 14-night Islands of the Marquesas & Tuamotus voyage with maiden visits to Hatiheu, Nuku Hiva; and Hakahau, Ua Pou, both in the Marquesas Islands.

"We look forward to welcoming our guests aboard the beloved Gauguin."
More 2024 Highlights
The 2024 deployment includes more Bora Bora, which Paul Gauguin says is a favorite port of call, featured on all seven itineraries with overnight stays on most. Several itineraries feature overnights in Moorea, and every cruise includes a visit to the line’s private islet, Motu Mahana on Taha’a.
Beyond the deep exploration of these Society Islands destinations, itineraries delve into the treasures of the Cook Islands, the Marquesas, and the Fijian isles. There is a rare visit to the Kingdom of Tonga, and discovery of Fakarava’s UNESCO-listed Biosphere in Tuamotus.
