Those looking for a cruise on the more exotic side are increasingly spoiled for choice these days - and that choice is about to get even broader with the latest news from boutique French operator Compagnie du Ponant.

Ponant's new itineraries for the winter 2014/2015 season include seven innovative cruises to Australia and New Zealand, with the new itineraries taking passengers to the South Pacific Ocean and Oceania. Destination highlights include not only Darwin, the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, Melbourne and Tasmania, but also Auckland and Rotorua, cradle of Maori culture.

The voyages will all aboard the sleek and stylish yacht-like cruiser L’Austral, with 132 staterooms and suites, and a high-quality array of public rooms and dining choices.

Highlights of the eye-catching programme Down Under include:

 
  • Combining wide open spaces with the delicate “French Touch” on board the latest generation luxury yacht.
  • Zodiac® outings with experienced naturalist-guides to explore unspoiled wildlife.
  • Expedition programmes designed to explore Australia’s most emblematic sites and meet the Aborigines.
  • Snorkelling in the turquoise blue waters of the Great Barrier Reef.
