The common areas have been refitted including the restaurant; wellness area and sun lounge area.
The ship is equipped with all the latest technologies to optimise emissions reduction:.
“Le Ponant has regained her splendour and more, while setting new eco-responsible navigation standards,” says Herve Gastinel, CEO of PONANT.
