Auckland in New Zealand is the starting point for this 29-night voyage. The beautiful beaches of the Bay of Islands are our first stop, before we set sail for Suva in Fiji, from where you can explore lush, tropical rainforests. Next, discover the colonial-era architecture of Samoa`s capital Apia and snorkel on the coral reefs off the coast of Pago Pago in American Samoa. French Polynesia beckons now: visit Raiatea, steeped in local mythology, Bora Bora, the honeymooners` favorite, and Moorea, a cluster of peaks wrapped in a blue lagoon. Two days in Papeete is plenty of time to explore Tahiti`s black-sand beaches, before we head to Huahine for impossibly blue waters, Rangiroa for world-class snorkeling, and Fakarava for beautiful pink-sand beaches. Then we have some time at sea, during which we sail past the beautiful Pitcairn Islands. In Chile, we spend two days marveling at the moai of Hanga Roa (Easter Island), visit the remote and rugged Robinson Crusoe Island, and end our adventure in the colorful city of Valparaíso.

Itinerary

01.

Auckland, New Zealand

feb 14, 2029

Set on New Zealand's North Island astride a narrow isthmus between the shimmering waters of the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean, Auckland – or Tamaki Makaurau in Maori – is an urban oasis ringed by natural beauty. The CBD (Central Business District) is brimming with artisanal coffee shops, fine-dining restaurants, and cultural institutions like the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki, but venture just beyond the skyscrapers to discover ancient mountain ranges, sculpted fjords, black-sand beaches, and lush rainforests.

Suva, Fiji

feb 18, 2029

8:00 AM - 5:00 PM

5 EXCURSIONS

Explore Suva, Fiji's enchanting capital, where a kaleidoscope of colonial architecture, bustling markets, and a fusion of Fijian, Indian, and Pacific cultures merge to create a uniquely vibrant urban experience. Suva sits on the southeast shores of mountainous Viti Levu ("Great Fiji"), largest of the over 800 islands which comprise the Republic of Fiji. Local folk traditions remain strong, like fire-walks and welcoming ceremonies, wood-carving and the fabrication of tree-bark cloth. The island's proud history is showcased in the Fiji Museum, with its impressive collection of war canoes.

feb 20, 2029

9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

8 EXCURSIONS

Cradled along the northern shore of Upolu, picturesque Apia's thatched-roof fales blend into the emerald-hued countryside. Jagged mountains rise above deserted beaches where trade winds sigh on coconut palms. Western Samoa's friendly, carefree islanders will welcome you to their bountiful homeland and proudly show you the former home of their adopted son, Robert Louis Stevenson.

Pago Pago, American Samoa

feb 20, 2029

8:00 AM - 4:00 PM

4 EXCURSIONS

It's all about the welcome in the beautiful port of Pago Pago (pronounced Pango Pango), on the shores of a deep natural harbor in the shadow of jungle-cloaked Mount Pioa – more lyrically known as Rainmaker Mountain. This is a place that has long-established, valued customs and traditions, passed down the generations over many centuries, where the offer of a drink made from the kava root has been turned into a ritual, Sunday is still a day of rest, and myths, legends and a turbulent history are shared through storytelling, dance, crafts and, of course, tattoos. But the capital of American Samoa is also a modern urban center with shops and sights including the Jean P. Haydon Museum, with its displays of war canoes, jewelry made from coconut shells and seeds, and a curious exhibition about the island chain's role in the U.S. Apollo Space Missions

Raiatea, French Polynesia

feb 23, 2029

10:00 AM - 11:00 PM

7 EXCURSIONS

This halcyon island is as spiritual as it is beautiful. The second-largest of the Society Islands after Tahiti, Raiatea is the ancient ancestral home of the Polynesian people and, legend has it, the birthplace of gods. While neighboring Bora Bora is a magnet for visitors, Raiatea has a serenity that's unmatched, thanks in no small part to its sacred place in Polynesian history and culture. Learn more at Taputapuatea marae, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which would have been used as a ceremonial and social space, and a point where the human and spiritual worlds met. Elsewhere, while Raiatea doesn't have the impressive beaches found on other islands, its mountainous interior offers calf-stretching hikes with glorious views, while its impossible clear waters reward divers with shipwrecks and a colorful array of marine life.

8 EXCURSIONS

Bora Bora is the jewel in the crown of French Polynesia, a blissful paradise of white sands, turquoise waters, and lush, jungle-clad peaks. It's no surprise that honeymooners retreat here – the romance is palpable. Spend your time snorkeling through kaleidoscopic coral gardens in crystalline lagoons, stand-up paddleboarding amid the island's iconic overwater bungalows, exploring the rugged foothills of majestic Mount Otemanu, and soaking up the sun on secluded motus (islets).

Papeete (Tahiti), French Polynesia

feb 25, 2029

arrival 8:00 PM

8 EXCURSIONS

Fringed by emerald peaks and the turquoise waters of the South Pacific, Papeete serves as an ideal stepping stone to the wonders of the island of Tahiti. But there's plenty to do in the French Polynesian capital itself. Wander along the lively waterfront and through bustling markets to immerse yourself in the rhythms of daily Polynesian life; admire the colorful Notre Dame Cathedral, one of Papeete's last remaining examples of early colonial architecture; and pay a visit to the Robert Wan Pearl Museum for an insight into the history and cultivation of Tahitian pearls (plus the opportunity to acquire a lustrous keepsake).

Anchor

6 EXCURSIONS

This lagoon-looped island off the northwest coast of Tahiti is the place to delve into Polynesia's ancestral culture. Many legends swirl around the millennia-old marae (sacred meeting places) and archaeological sites, while a traditional dwelling now houses a museum under its vaulted bamboo ceiling. Once the home of Tahitian royalty, Huahine is impossibly green, its rich soil growing a bounty of crops: from bananas and breadfruit to more ornamental vanilla orchids. If you can bear to leave the island's knockout beaches behind, hikes through the lush countryside are rewarded with dips in cool pools fed by crashing waterfalls.

3 EXCURSIONS

A mesmerizing atoll in French Polynesia, where endless turquoise lagoons, vibrant coral reefs, and a laid-back island atmosphere provide the ultimate South Pacific sanctuary. As the second largest atoll in the world, this ring-shaped island is known for being a popular spot for scuba diving due to its diverse marine wildlife. Situated in French Polynesia, this tropical paradise offers many other activities such as dolphin watching, surfing, fishing or visiting the peaceful villages of Avatoru and Tiputa.

Fakarava, French Polynesia

mar 01, 2029

7:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Anchor

Few islands melt the heart like the 100 or so that make up French Polynesia. Cast adrift in the South Pacific, midway between California and Australia, this large atoll is a semi-autonomous territory of France, part of the Tuamotu archipelago, northeast of the main island of Tahiti. Together with six neighboring islands, it proudly bears the UNESCO stamp on its biosphere reserve, which is home to an astonishing array of coral and other marine life, from colorful clouds of surgeonfish to sleek manta rays. Intrepid divers come from across the world to swim with great grey reef sharks at Fakarava's southern edge – snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding are among the tamer watersport choices. Rotoava is the sleepy main village, and slower pleasures include wandering its few streets, shopping for the lustrous pearls farmed here, and wiggling toes in the island's white sands.

Adamstown, Pitcairn Island

mar 04, 2029

8:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Anchor

Of all the curious places in the world, Adamstown is surely one of the most intriguing. This tiny community is the only settlement in the four volcanic Pitcairn Islands, which are strewn across hundreds of miles of the largest marine reserve in the world. Its 35 residents are almost all descendants of the 18th-century mutineers from HMS Bounty and the Tahitians who accompanied them. Please note that we will not be disembarking in Adamstown; however, weather and sea conditions permitting, residents of the island may come aboard to meet guests, creating a rare opportunity for personal interaction with one of the world's most remote communities and insight into their unique heritage, all while enjoying the beauty and charm of this legendary, bucket-list destination from the comfort of the ship.

Hanga Roa (Easter Island), Chile

Overnight

Anchor

Rapa Nui, the Indigenous name of Easter Island, is one of the most astounding places on Earth. From the 10th to 16th centuries, its original inhabitants built immense stone statues, known as moai, of which nearly 1,000 still dot the island. These carved human figures made from solidified volcanic ash represent ancestral chiefs facing inland to protect the community. Some are lined up in imposing rows (Ahu Tongariki, Ahu Nau Nau), while others are staggered over hillsides and craters. What boggles the mind is how the inhabitants of this incredibly remote island, 2,300 miles from the Chilean coast, managed to carve and move such colossal sentinels, many weighing between 10 and 12 metric tons. Today's occupants of Rapa Nui live in Hanga Roa village, your port of entry to this mesmerizing island.

Robinson Crusoe Island, Chile

11:00 AM - 8:00 PM

Anchor

Robinson Crusoe Island – the once-home of a marooned Scottish sailor, who inspired the protagonist of Daniel Defoe's 1719 novel Robinson Crusoe – is a remote Chilean paradise of dramatic cliffs and soaring mountains. The island is a haven for rare plants and animals, and its surrounding waters support a diverse ecosystem of endemic marine life, including the Juan Fernández fur seal – once believed to be extinct – and the Juan Fernández rock lobster, a delicacy of the islands. Snorkelers and divers are rewarded with excellent visibility: discover underwater rock formations and the wreck of the German Cruiser SMS Dresden as schools of colorful fish zip around you. Back on dry land, epic hikes through lush green gorges and volcanic peaks await the intrepid.

Valparaiso, Chile

mar 14, 2029

arrival 7:00 AM

Valparaíso, Chile's most artistic city, is vibrant canvas where colorful houses climb steep hills, embraced by the Pacific breeze. Founded in the 16th century, the city's history dates back to the 16th century, when Spanish explorers discovered its natural harbor. Its strategic location along the trade routes made it a crucial port, attracting ships from around the world. Today, the city's diverse architecture reflects this history, blending colonial, European, and indigenous influences. The city's cultural scene flourished during Chile's economic booms in the 19th century and attracted many intellectuals, writers, and artists. Their legacy live on: Valparaíso was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2023, celebrated for its rich history and vibrant artistic culture. Its hills showcase colorful houses, connected by winding streets and iconic ascensores (funiculars). These elements are a living testament to the city's past, its role as a crossroads of cultures, and its enduring appeal to travelers seeking a taste of history and creative inspiration.
