The dreamy South Pacific islands of Tahiti, Tonga, the Cook Islands and Fiji can all be enjoyed in one idyllic cruise in 2027, with Australian boutique cruise specialist, Cruise Traveller, releasing a new fly cruise and stay package that comes with almost A$10,000 in savings for couples, a flight credit of A$3000 per couple and free hotel nights before and after the cruise aboard the luxurious, Polynesian ship, Le Paul Gauguin.
The itinerary of this bucket-list journey embraces the stunning lagoons and atolls of Bora Bora and Moorea in Tahiti, and Aitutaki in the Cook Islands, which are famed as some of the world’s most beautiful islands. Carrying just 330 guests in refined elegance, Ponant’s Le Paul Gauguin is purpose-designed with a shallow draft to access pristine lagoons and isolated islands.
Cruise Traveller’s exclusive, new 19-night package – ‘Lagoons and Legends’ , begins on January 11, 2027, with a flight from Australia to Papeete in Tahiti, using a bonus A$1500 flight credit per person from Cruise Traveller to help cover pre and post cruise flights. Two free nights in Papeete follow, allowing guests to unwind to the relaxed rhythms of Tahitian culture. Guests then board Le Paul Gauguin for an exotic, 15-night cruise from Tahiti to Fiji, beginning with the turquoise waters and dramatic peaks of picture-perfect Bora Bora, Moorea and Tahaa.
The famously translucent lagoons and brilliant coral atolls of Aitutaki in the Cook Islands appear next on the horizon, followed by the pearl-white beaches, coral reefs and crystal clear waters of Vava’u in Tonga. Fiji is next, including the traditional villages and copra plantations of Savusavu, the lively capital of Suva and the remote and beautiful island of Beqa known for its gorgeous beaches and lagoons and authentic kava ceremonies.
The voyage ends in the Fijian port of Lautoka with another two free nights of accommodation before guests fly back to Australia, again using the flight credit of $1500 per person.
