Experience the sublime paradise of the South Seas aboard the incomparable S.Y. Star Flyer. Following in the wake of Robert Louis Stevenson and Paul Gauguin, immerse yourself in the beauty of Tahiti and French Polynesia and learn about the timeless cultural traditions and the unique ecosystems of the South Seas. View ancient stone temples on tranquil Huahine; savor the seductive charm of Bora Bora, the Pearl of the Pacific; visit the tropical Eden of Moorea; and enjoy swimming and snorkeling in the pristine waters of idyllic lagoons. Along the way, you'll take part in a lecture by a resident environmental expert and, through a unique village forum, you'll meet local residents who will share their perspectives and insights into life in Polynesia. Extend your South Seas journey with the Papeete post-program option.
