Los Angeles Times published an article about the Aranui Cruises

On January 30, 2017, Los Angeles Times published an article about the Aranui Cruises, written by Rosemary McClure. The journalist describes the itinerary of the Aranui which offers a daydreamer’s voyage to the dazzling shores of paradise. Read the full article here.

Extract:

„The ship came online in winter 2015, when it replaced earlier versions. Although it lacks some of the perks of large cruise ships, it makes up for it in the access it provides to a beautiful place that’s off the radar for most people.We visited six Marquesas islands, plus Bora Bora and two islands in the Tuamotu Archipelago. At each stop, I thought I had discovered Eden. But then on the next stop, I’d feel that way again.All of the ports were tiny; at some, virtually every resident turned out to greet us, dancing, singing and playing instruments.They were our entertainment, and we were theirs.“
