Itinerary

Day 1

Papeete, Tahiti Island – Embarkation (Docked)

Sunday, October 3, 2027

Capital of French Polynesia, the city of Papeete is on the north-west coast of the island of Tahiti. You’ll find a relaxed atmosphere here, where urban buzz combines with the legendary laid-back Polynesian lifestyle. Culture is not lacking. You can enjoy sites narrating the history of the archipelago, including the colonial cathedral and the Maison de la reine Marau. The Vaipahi public gardens will win you over by their abundant plant-life. The large municipal market offers local specialties: fresh fruit, spices and all kinds of fish abound on their stalls. (Dinner)

Day 2

Moorea Island (Anchored)

Monday, October 4, 2027

A part of the Windward Island archipelago just to the west of Tahiti, famous Mo’orea will leave you with a series of unforgettable images and memories. Bask on its heavenly beaches, enjoy a dip in the turquoise waters of its lagoon, and soak up its luscious vegetation and the heady flowers that carpet the inland areas. Get the most out of this natural gem with a trip to the Mo’orea Belvedere. Exceptional views of Mount Rotui unfurl before your eyes, with the Opunohu Bay and its valley to the left, and the famous Cook’s Bay, surrounded by notched, cathedral-style peaks, to the right. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 3

Makatea, Tuamotu Islands (Anchored)

Tuesday, October 5, 2027

Day 4

Rangiroa, Tuamotu Islands (Anchored)

Wednesday, October 6, 2027

A secluded atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago, Rangiroa, meaning “vast sky” in Polynesian, is very aptly named. The lagoon of the largest atoll in Polynesia is reminiscent of the heavens, imprisoned by hundreds of islets formed by sand that veers from immaculate white to pink. But the beauty of Rangiroa, classed by Captain Cousteau as one of the most beautiful diving spots in the world, is most evident in its underwater life: you will have the occasion of admiring all the richness of the site on a snorkeling tour or on a glass-bottom boat tour. Rangiroa is also the high seat of Polynesian pearl culture. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 5

At sea

Thursday, October 7, 2027

During your day at sea, make the most of the many services and Signature Brand g activities on board. Treat yourself to a moment of relaxation in the spa or stay in shape in the fitness center. Depending on the season, let yourself be tempted by the swimming pool or a spot of sunbathing. You’ll also have the opportunity to enjoy the conferences or Brand g Signature Entertainment, Activities and perhaps Parties proposed on board, or to do some shopping in the boutique or meet the PONANT photographers in their dedicated space. As for lovers of the open sea, you’ll be able to visit the ship’s upper deck to admire the spectacle of the waves and perhaps be lucky enough to observe marine species. A truly enchanted interlude, combining comfort, rest and entertainment. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 6

Hakahetau, Ua Pou Island (Anchored)

Friday, October 8, 2027

In the north-west of the island of Ua Pou, the third-largest of the Marquesas Islands, Hakahetau captivates with its wild splendour and the calmness that reigns over its legendary lands. With a luxuriant valley sheltering a tropical forest on one side and a paradisiacal bay of crystal-clear waters on the other side, the former capital of the island is a perfect spot for nature lovers. Here, like across the entire island, the inhabitants live primarily off fishing, farming and crafts: their wooden and stone sculptures are renowned. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 7

Hatiheu, Nuku Hiva Island (Anchored)

Saturday, October 9, 2027

Entering Hatiheu Bay, you will quickly make out the statue of the Virgin, which, standing more than 300 metres high, overlooks this beautiful little village. Located on the north of Nuku Hiva Island, this locality is dominated by impressive basalt pitons. In the past, the fear of tsunamis and attacks from other clans led the tribes to settle in the interior of the valleys. As a consequence, many archaeological sites remain preserved and make for interesting excursions. You will find many of the ceremonial plazas, called tohua, notably those of Kamuihei and Hikokua where you will be able to observe several reconstructed traditional houses. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 8

Taiohae, Nuku Hiva Island (Anchored)

Sunday, October 10, 2027

Taiohae Bay welcomes you in a sumptuous setting. Your ship will drop anchor a few kilometres from the black sandy beaches, nestled between majestic valleys. You will find yourself in the middle of the main village on the island of Nuku Hiva. You can follow the footpaths on foot or in an all-terrain vehicle. From the top of the hill of Mount Muake, a breathtaking panorama allows you to clearly identify the rocky islands that emerge on either side of the bay. Further on, the site of Piki Vehine shows its tikis, sacred statues used for religious practices. In addition, do not miss the Notre Dame des Marquises cathedral. Its distinguishing feature is that is was built using stone taken from the six Marquesa Islands. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 9

Hane, Ua Huka (Anchored)

Monday, October 11, 2027

Ua Huka, a hidden gem in the Marquesas, invites you to leave the world behind for a while. Its red-tinged cliffs overlook an endless ocean, while its tropical valleys are home to sacred relics and unspoilt wilderness. Accessible only by sea, this mysterious island invites you to discover its ancestral crafts and magnificent panoramas. Surrender to the soothing tranquillity of these landscapes, where each moment reveals the authenticity of a Polynesia that time forgot. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 10

Puama’u, Hiva Oa Island/Hanaiapa, Hiva Oa (Anchored)

Tuesday, October 12, 2027

In the stunning Marquesas Islands, nature reigns supreme. The island of Hiva Oa and the town of Puamau are no exception to this rule. The archaeological site of Meae Lipona, one of the most beautiful places for admiring the famous “tiki” statues, ancient religious stone sculptures depicting men, is itself hidden at the heart of a dreamlike décor. The waters of the nearby stream babble as the only peak in the valley keeps watch from above. The stories and myths you hear will take on a whole new meaning here. Fall under the magical spell of Polynesia.

Hanaiapa, a peaceful jewel in the north of the island of Hiva Oa, captivates visitors with its authenticity and serenity. This village nestled between verdant mountains and turquoise waters reveals an idyllic setting where time seems to stand still. Its unique tropical vegetation invites contemplation, and its inhabitants warmly and readily share their culture and traditions.

(Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

Day 11

Omoa, Fatu Hiva Island/Hanavave (Bay of Virgins), Fatu Hiva Island (Anchored)

Wednesday, October 13, 2027

Your ship will take you to Omoa, a peaceful fishing village far from all civilization, nestling in a magnificent bay on the island of Fatu Hiva. In the valley, you will be able to spot some tohua, former sacred sites, as well as the many burial caves lost in the island’s abundant tropical forest. During your port of call, you’ll be able to discover the Maison Grelet, a museum that houses remarkable wooden sculptures and local works of art. Right in front of you, the village’s artisans will demonstrate how they make tapa, a bark cloth obtained through the technique of beating layers of wood, and explain the manufacturing processes of umu hei, a bouquet garni made from a delicious mix of fragrances.

Grandiose, striking and powerful, the Marquesas are more rugged than their Polynesian sisters. The archipelago’s charm lies in its extraordinary wild beauty: waterfalls flowing down vertiginous peaks, jagged cliffs sinking into the indigo sea, and lush vegetation. On the island of Fatu Hiva, you’ll discover the famous Hanavave Bay, considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world. Make the most of your free time to stroll among the houses and gardens of the village. Its inhabitants, specialised in the manufacture of tapa (bark cloth), will welcome you with ukulele music and traditional songs. You’ll also have the pleasure of tasting the soft and juicy citrus fruits that grow on the island.

(Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)

Day 12

Hapatoni, Tahuata Island (Anchored)

Thursday, October 14, 2027

Located on Tahuata, the smallest of the inhabited Marquesas Islands, the village of Hapatoni will open its doors to you. A road built in old stones will lead you from the seashore to the village cathedral. You will also find a craft centre presenting various sculptures and engravings in bone or wood. Marquesan art is, in fact, recognised all over French Polynesia. Further on, vegetation takes over, inviting you to walk among its beautiful green valleys. Here, the population will give you a proper welcome, with traditional singing and dancing. A moment of conviviality you’ll remember! (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)

Jonathan has gone out of his way each time we have used Purple Light Vacations! We always know we will get the best price and best location on a ship or at a hotel. Our favorite part is the destination guides that he provides so we can know the best of each city.

Jenny H., Kansas City, MO.

Purple Light Vacations handled our two-week trip to France, including Paris, Normandy and Provence. It was a pleasure working with them and they reflected professionalism, expertise and responsiveness at every step.

They were gracious and accommodating, and supported and checked in with us all along and made us feel very secure.

Martin Z., Los Angeles, CA

I was lucky enough to find Jonathan just by googling. He was very personable, friendly and professional. He was able to put our entire trip together in just a few days and checked on us every day of our trip to make sure we were satisfied. He is the best and only travel agent I will use going forward.

Jonathan went above and beyond to make our three week honeymoon in Southeast Asia the trip of a lifetime! He was also particulaly sensitive to our needs as a gay couple, and recommended locations that would be LGBTQ-friendly. Unlike other travel agents we consulted, Jonathan was perfectly happy to work within our budget. Despite the complicated logistics of our trip (8 different cities), Jonathan made the process seamless for us and provided an extremely helpful trip schedule as well as destination guides for each city. All of the recommended hotels were gorgeous, and we were treated especially well since Jonathan notified them that were were celebrating our honeymoon. We would highly recommend Purple Light Vacations to anyone looking to plan a special trip!

We are so grateful for all he has done for us and our travel plans. It certainly made our lives so much easier. My honest suggestion to anyone who needs a travel agent today is look no further! Book with Jonathan at Purple Light Vacations!

We just booked our second cruise within the past year through Purple Light Vacations due to their outstanding service. Jonathan Geen is not only highly professional, he is enjoyable to work with. What is the one thing we all want from the service industry, and especially dealing with travel and vacations-- timely and helpful assistance. Jonathan was quick to respond to any question or inquiry, whether by email or phone, any time or day of the week. He went over and above to make sure we were taken care of, and even provided information about places he didn't even book for us. Purple Light is now our go-to firm for travel and vacations.

Jonathan at Purple Light provided me with the most personalized, detailed service for my very first Atlantis Cruise this summer. Starting last fall and winter, he advised, suggested and planned with me to make this three week excursion a success. The key point I want to make is the sensitivity Jonathan and Purple Light were able to exercise with this professional gay male to plan his vacation so well and appropriately. I'll be relying on their judgement again.

Thank you Jonathan for making my dream come true! Bora Bora has been on our mind for years; for its exotic and remote location you are required to pay high $$$$! I thought it wasn't definitely within our budget.I was over the moon when Jonathan proved me wrong and found us an amazing deal! He made all our arrangements and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed right down to the time of our departure. During our trip everything was seamless! I couldn't ask for a better experience

My husband and I recently took a trip to Thailand on a vacation that was booked thru Purple Light. Southeast Asia was new to us, and we wanted a bit of extra help. We got a ton of extra help, for free! Purple Light was with us the whole way- from early stages of planning to the actual booking and throughout our travel. When we arrived to our hotel room, flat-out beat from travel, there was champagne on ice to greet us. Wow! We've used them before, and will absolutely use them from now on. I just can't recommend them highly enough to our family and friends.

My husband and I just came back from our 5 year anniversary trip to Cancun. We told Jonathan the dates we wanted, our budget and what sorts of things we were looking to do. He got right on it! Booked us airfare, an amazing all-inclusive resort, transportation to and from the airport (which I wouldn't have even thought of!) and even booked us a trip to Chichén-Itza. He even gave us some tips on what do and where to visit while we were there. Easiest trip we've ever taken! Purple Light will always and forever be my go-to for any traveling! Will definitely be referring them to any of my friends and family

We love Purple Light Vacations. We have used them for quite a few trips and they always surpass our expectations. Jonathon is the absolute best. He takes care of all of the details and is very prompt in answering all of our questions. We will definitely use Purple Light Vacations for all of our traveling needs.

Purple Light has made planning several vacations easier for me. They worked out a family trip getting parents and siblings in from various places. More significantly, they helped us arrange two international vacations. After recommending Argentina to us, Jonathan took care of everything and it was probably our best vacation together ever. He also recommended the RSVP river boat cruise up the Danube from Budapest to Prague...wonderful trip! We've booked an Atlantis cruise through P.L. as well. Of course we could have booked on our own, but using Purple Light was so less stressful and provided...extra help and advice at no extra cost!

Milo S. San Diego, CA

I used Jonathan and Purple Light to book a trip for my birthday celebration. He was very helpful and from the very first email contact to the end of the cruise Jonathan handled everything with excellence. His communication during the booking process to the day of starting the trip was very thorough and he missed no details. I will definitely be using Jonathan and Purple Light Vacations again for my future vacation and travel needs.

If you are looking for outstanding service, Jonathan @ Purple Light Vacations will blow you away. We just arrived at our hotel in Paris and it is exactly what we were looking for!! There were plenty of little details that he had customized for us to make our anniversary trip incredibly special. Thank you Jonathan. We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a CLASS ACT!

Jonathan of Purple Light Vacations guided us through the entire process to book our Atlantis Caribbean cruise at no additional charge to us. He kept us informed on all the details of the cruise and events happening on/off the boat. Upon arrival on the ship, a bottle of Merlot was waiting for us. Upon disembarkation, an email was waiting for us to see how we enjoyed the cruise as well as a card in the mail to welcome us home. This attention to detail did not go unnoticed and was very much appreciated. I hold Purple Light Vacations as the gold standard for high quality travel services.

CJ G Suitland, MD

Purple Light has booked vacations for us at Disneyland, Aruba, Charleston, Fort Lauderdale, New York City, Bahamas, Brazil and two cruises and all this since January 2016. We are discerning frequent travelers with a budget in mind. Working with Purple Light gives us the confidence to keep planning more travel!

Jim M. Palm Springs, CA

I intended to book my own gay river cruise vacation from Prague to Budapest, but came across Purple Light. I then researched the relativity of using travel agents in this age of connectivity. I was surprised to find only positive articles and immediately contacted Purple Light! And am I glad I did. All I had to do is state my needs and the rest was taken care of by Jonathan. Above and beyond my expectations. He saved me so much time and money that I cannot wait to plan the next trip.

David E. San Diego, CA

Normally I research and book hotels on my own. This year, however, I was extremely busy at work and I had no time to do this, so I reached out to Purple Light for their help in planning a trip to the Greek islands, and am glad I did! Purple Light recommended excellent hotels that I probably would not have found on my own, and they even provided helpful city island overviews that were referenced often. In addition, they helped fill in some of our time with tours that we thoroughly enjoyed. I highly recommend Purple Light and plan to use them again for my next trip!

Alejandro L San Francisco, CA

We used Purple Light Vacations to help us plan our trip to Italy. Jonathan was extremely helpful when it came to planning hotel stays, site seeing tours, transportation and entertainment. He always got back to us in a timely manner and answered all of our questions above and beyond expectations. We had no idea what planning a trip to Europe entailed. Jonathan helped us with EVERYTHING and kept us in the loop the whole time. His services were no extra cost to us and we honestly got exactly what we wanted at an amazing price. Our trip to Italy was amazing and I know we could not have done it without Purple Light. I will definitely use them again and I highly recommend you do as well.

Nick P. San Diego, CA

We used Purple Light when we booked our Atlantis P.V. Mexico Resort Vacation. With no additional cost to us, Purple Light made what would have been a good vacation...an amazing vacation. They handled everything (airline, shuttles, etc.). Additionally, they provided excellent insight on what to expect on our vacation and what to see and what to avoid. I give them my highest recommendation.

Paul D. San Diego, CA

Thank you Purple Light Vacations, and to Jonathan especially. Jonathan helped us plan an amazing Cuba Cruise for my bachelorette trip. It is not easy to book a trip for a large group including all of the flights, rooming/accommodations and excursions. Luckily, we just proposed dates, destinations in mind with a budget and Purple Light took care of the rest. Jonathan researched the options, made suggestions and provided us with great advice. He was so patient and informative throughout our planning process, and really made sure that everything worked out well. After such a great experience, we also asked Purple Light in helping us plan a cruise for our parents too. Our parents were very happy and impressed with the entire trip. Thank you!!

Nise L. New York, NY

We used Purple Light Vacations to help us book our hotel rooms in Copenhagen and Stockholm recently during a Baltic cruise. I had previously booked room through an online travel website but I'm glad I decided to go with Jonathan instead, or our hotel choices would have been in the wrong area. You can trust Purple Light Vacations to make sure you have a wonderful, surprise free vacation!

Frank K. San Diego, CA

I took a short weekend vacation to Catalina Island with a friend and reached out to Purple Light and was amazed how quick they got me a hotel room and a list of great things to do! They went above and beyond! I don't think I will take a trip without them!! Thanks Jonathan and Purple Light!

Eric L. San Diego, CA

We were in New Orleans for Southern Decadence. Purple Light Vacations recommended a spectacular hotel right in the area we were interested in staying. We have also traveled to Italy, France, and Barcelona where each of their recommendations was excellent! Everything went exactly as planned.

Jennifer J. St Paul, MN

My partner and I really appreciated and got good use out of Purple Light’s city overviews for Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro during the Atlantis South American cruise. Purple Light's city overviews gave us a good idea of what the highlights were in both places. This was helpful, as we didn't know very much about either city going into the cruise.

Ed D. Chicago, IL

Jonathan booked our trip to Thailand and made the experience absolutely amazing and easy. The hotels were perfect and it was so nice knowing exactly what to expect when we landed. His recommendations for things to do once we got there were extremely helpful and he gave us a "city overview" for each city we stayed in. We will absolutely book any future vacations through Purple Light and cannot wait for our next adventure!

Jessica P. San Francisco, CA

Jonathan and Purple Light are great! Had them manage our reservations for a couple of Atlantis cruises and always been incredibly responsive and on top of things

Ryan M. San Diego, CA

I used Purple Light's Copenhagen overview to plan for restaurants and get a sense of must-see sights in the city. The suggestions were perfect and I don't want to take another trip without consulting Purple Light before I travel. Recommended for a first-class vacation that leaves you free to spend your time enjoying the city rather than struggling to navigate it!
