Tahiti and its sister islands are a flower-draped Pacific playground.
Explore the ruins of stone marae on Huahine, dive the protected reef off the Tuamotu atolls and chat with locals on Rangiroa. This ten-day, expedition-style cruise will unlock the secrets beyond French Polynesia’s beguiling beaches; with only 102 guests on board, you’ll have easy access to the archeologists, naturalists and photographers who accompany the sailing.
The water is at your doorstep on a private motu on this sevenday Polynesian escape. Your bungalow comes with a view of Bora Bora’s iconic Mount Otemanu, and days are filled with snorkeling, reef-diving, mingling with manta rays, kitesurfing, hiking or sipping tropical drinks and eating poisson cru. This tour includes one night in Papeete, plus a day spent exploring the lagoon by boat.
Soft ukulele tunes float through the breeze as you glide on an outrigger canoe to a private motu. Here, settle into a seaside lounge decorated with traditional Polynesian textiles and flora, where you can nibble appetizers and relax while dinner is prepared. Your meal is served under the glow of tiki torches; dancers and musicians complete the scene. Take in some southern hemisphere stargazing or a night swim before heading back to your hotel.
An abundance of cultural treasures
Traveling across Europe opens your eyes to a world of unparalleled culture and history. It often seems impossible to choose between the Renaissance art of Florence and the Impressionist paintings of Paris; Germany’s Bavarian castles and the bustling multicultural London streets. The wealth of knowledge acquired in Europe is an asset of a lifetime – its only rivals being the people and food you’ll encounter along the way! Close proximity of individual countries makes it easy to incorporate any number of them into your trip, while each country is more than worthy of a focused, extended stay as you immerse yourself in the culture and communities.
The Possibilities Are Endless
Set to a backdrop of an impressive variety of landscapes, from lush tropical rainforests to the breath-taking Rocky Mountain range, North America offers a unique adventure for every traveler. Take a road trip along the Pacific Coast highway, zip-line through Canada’s temperate rainforests, or journey through Mexico’s Copper Canyon by train. The endless opportunities of the land will leave you wanting to discover more.
