Intimate Yachts Built for Expeditions

Ponant's fleet of luxury small ships and intimate yachts welcomes on board a limited number of passengers, so guests maintain their privacy and enjoy the feeling of being on their own private yacht — able to call at iconic, international ports as well as secret harbors accessible only to smaller-sized ships.

All-Inclusive Luxury & Gastronomy

PONANT offers an award winning cruise experience with top rated gastronomy designed in partnership with Ducasse Conseil, the luxurious Sothys spa, fabulous Hermés stateroom amenities, sumptuous macarons from Ladurée, Veuve Clicquot Champagne and select wines from Maison Taillevent.

Sailing to All Corners of the Globe

Each year PONANT offers more than 400 awe-inspiring cruises, calling at over 450 ports on all seven continents. From Zodiac® landings in Antarctica to hikes in the Arctic; from immersion in Japanese culture and revisiting classic Europe, to the natural beauty of the Seychelles, PONANT presents these destinations through a new lens.
