On board one of Ponant’s luxury Explorer cruise ships, you’ll have ten days to explore this untouched paradise, discovering beautiful beaches and awe-inspiring coral reefs among countless other wondrous attractions.

From the far-flung shores of the Seychelles, your adventure will begin with a luxury pre-cruise stay.

Experience a treasure trove of natural beauty at every stop, including the gorgeous beach of La Digue, snorkelling in crystalline waters and finding yourself face-to-face with rainforest critters.

On board Ponant’s Le Dumont-d'Urville, you’ll combine the adventure of visiting remote ports with the comfort and privacy of an intimate ship. Some of the luxuries include a SOTHYS™ spa, underwater lounge, hydraulic swimming and bathing platform, pool deck and 188-capacity theatre.
