"A journey outside of time and all its constraints. A world of pure moments of delight where everything is enchantment. Whether it's the ship itself and its crew, fully worthy of their five stars, or the places visited, everything is magical. By just looking at our photos, we find ourselves back in this state of well-being, which is well worth the trip to the end of the world. We found much more there than we went looking for. Thank you.”
Catherine O. - Le Boréal - Antarctica
"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 that wildlife, those landscapes."
Dominique H. - Le Soléal - Antarctica
"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, at which the French art of living is to be found. The comfort of the cabins, the gastronomy, and the especially attentive service provided by all the staff contribute to the pleasure experienced by the passenger. You also have to add the professionalism of the naturlist guides, both during the onboard talks and lectures and during the disembarkations at the iconic sites of Antarctica and South Georgia by Zodiac® inflatable boat. Always in complete safety, thanks to PONANT!"
