PONANT EXPLORATIONS Announces 2026 Europe Collection for Exceptional Value

“Europe is where PONANT’s story began over 35 years ago, and it remains at the heart of our expertise,” said Deb Corbett, CEO Asia Pacific, PONANT EXPLORATIONS GROUP. “We’ve been proud to share the region’s beauty through intimate voyages that reveal its culture, coastlines, and character from a unique perspective at sea. The 2026 Europe Collection reflects that heritage, offering great value for travellers looking to explore more intimately.”

Exploring Europe in Style

Bringing together the spirit of exploration and French-inspired sophistication, the 2026 Europe Collection showcases the continent’s cultural and natural diversity — from Greece, Italy, and the Adriatic Coast to Scotland, Ireland, and the Arctic Circle. The new release offers exclusive savings and early-booking value across three standout programs:

• European Grand Voyages: Ranging from 14 to 19 nights, these extended itineraries invite guests to double their discovery on back‑to‑back adventures, saving 10% on the second voyage. Featured routes include journeys from Copenhagen to London and Barcelona to Lisbon.
• Cruise & Land Packages: Combine a European small‑ship voyage with a curated land program and receive an AU$800 PONANT PLUS credit. This offer includes thoughtfully arranged pre‑ and post‑cruise experiences such as guided tours, city stays, and transfers in destinations like Paris, Valletta, Edinburgh, and Dublin for a seamless travel experience.
• Iconic Croatia Sailings: Discover the Adriatic aboard boutique yachts, including the Relais & Châteaux‑accredited sailing yacht Le Ponant. Guests can enjoy up to 30% off selected 2026 sailings with the PONANT Bonus*, unlocking the ultimate in small‑ship luxury and coastal charm.

Immersive and Intimate Voyages

Designed for travellers seeking authentic, smaller‑scale exploration, PONANT’s European itineraries balance cultural immersion with exceptional comfort. Guests sail aboard elegant, human‑sized ships featuring refined dining, environmentally sensitive operations, and access to ports unreachable by larger vessels.

Each journey captures the essence of Europe — from the art and architecture of the Mediterranean to the dramatic landscapes of the Scottish Isles and Arctic Circle. PONANT’s considered approach ensures every voyage tells a story of culture, coastline, and connection.

Travellers can take advantage of these exclusive early-booking offers for new reservations made before 15 December 2025, subject to availability. Terms and conditions apply. Learn more and explore all itineraries at au.ponant.com/europe‑2026.
