Ponant releases 2023 luxury expedition programme

PONANT has launched a selection of new expedition itineraries for 2023.

The new expeditions include journeys to Antarctica, the Arctic, Northern Europe, Oceania, and Asia Pacific.

The company will set sail with nine new luxury expeditions in warmer waters off North-West Australia and through Indonesia and South-East Asia, as well as five new departures to the Arctic, Alaska and Antarctica.

Among the tropical expeditions includes an odyssey between North-East Australia and Indonesia where travellers can experience UNESCO site Komodo National Park, exploring pristine reefs.

Komodo National Park is also part of a new itinerary from Bali to Singapore, with other highlights including a visit to the island of Sumbawa as well as southern Borneo, home to a vast population of orangutans.

In the Arctic, the PONANT’s new addition Le Commandant Charcot will set sail from Greenland to Spitsbergen, exploring the world’s largest icebergs and fjords.

Also on Le Commandant Charcot, guests will travel deep into Antarctica, as it travels from New Zealand to Argentina, crossing the Antarctic Circle to the Bellingshausen Sea.

Of PONANT’s 75 expeditions departures scheduled for 2023, a total of 14 new sailings are aboard the company’s 10 small-luxury ships.
