Regent's Gauguin Celebrates 10 Years in TahitiPublished on: May 2, 2007 Modern AgentRegent Seven Seas Cruises' 330-guest Paul Gauguin is celebrating 10 years of operating year-round in Tahiti and French Polynesia. The ship has carried more than 100,000 passengers to these islands. A selection of 43 voyages in 2008 includes itineraries from seven to 11 nights calling on the Society and Tuamotu Islands, as well as longer voyages to the Marquesas, Cook and Austral islands. In response to increased demand from guests, Regent Seven Seas' 2008 program features a greater number of shorter, seven-night cruises than in recent years. Guests aboard the Paul Gauguin can extend their vacation with seven pre- and post-cruise land programs in Tahiti in 2008. In addition to the established programs offered on Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea, two new properties are offered: Le Taha'a Private Island and Spa; and the Moorea Pearl Resort and Spa. Special extensions are also offered to Australia and New Zealand in conjunction with select departures. Through an exclusive partnership with Jean-Michel Cousteau and his conservation organization, Ocean Futures Society, young guests and their parents may participate in "Ambassadors of the Environment" Circles of Interest aboard 12 sailings in 2008. Jean-Michel Cousteau will sail aboard the 14-night Cook, Austral, Tuamotu and Society islands voyage departing Sept. 27, 2008. Regent President Mark Conroy will sail on a 14-night Marquesas, Tuamotu and Society Islands cruise departing from Papeete on Jan. 5, 2008. Paul Gauguin's 2008 voyages start at $2,195 for seven-night roundtrips from Papeete, Tahiti. Cruise fares include all shipboard gratuities; complimentary beverages, including select wines and spirits served throughout the ship; complimentary 24-hour room service; refrigerator stocked with soft drinks, beer and bottled water replenished daily; and an in-suite bar setup in butler suites. Many sailings also offer a "third guest sails free" option, available in select staterooms. For more information, call 800-300-4567 or visit www.regent-seven-seas-cruises-discount.com |
