Our guests say it best!

"A journey outside of time and all its constraints, a world of pure delight, where everything is enchanted. Whether it's the ship itself and her crew, fully worthy of five stars, or the places visited, everything is magical. By just looking at our photos, we find ourselves reliving this trip to the end of the world. We found much more there than we went looking for. Thank you.”

Le Boréal

"My most beautiful moment was opening the curtains in my cabin at 3 am and seeing these magnificent purple-pink icebergs after two days at sea in the Drake Passage: it was breathtaking, sublime, magical, exceptional! I just want to go back there as soon as possible. It was the journey of a lifetime, and you, PONANT, have been a big part of this MAGIC! I think about it every day… I still dream about the wildlife and those landscapes."

Le Soléal

"I had the wonderful opportunity of discovering the Antarctic on board Le Lyrial. The true luxury of this expedition cruise is the comfort of a real and genuine intimately sized five-star hotel. The comfort of the cabins, the gastronomy, and the especially attentive service provided by all staff members contributed to the joy we had. There was also the professionalism of the naturalist guides, both during onboard talks and lectures, as well as the disembarkations at the iconic sites of Antarctica and South Georgia by Zodiacs. Always in complete safety, thanks to PONANT!"
