Ultimate Small-Ship Experience with PONANT

Europe has always been connected by the sea. Long before highways and railways, merchants, explorers and pilgrims travelled these waters, linking coastal towns, islands and great trading ports that continue to thrive today.

These voyages are designed for those who believe the greatest luxury is time. Spanning weeks rather than days, each voyage reveals Europe's diverse coastlines, from grand maritime cities and celebrated wine regions to secluded islands. Journey north through the British Isles to the Faroe Islands and Iceland, follow the Atlantic coastline into the Mediterranean or learn about the mythology of the Greek Islands. With each destination thoughtfully connected by sea, these voyages offer a rare opportunity to experience Europe at an unhurried pace, where every arrival unlocks another chapter of its cultural heritage.

With more time in each region, included guided excursions and the comfort of PONANT's intimate ships, these voyages are designed for those who enjoy travelling beyond the highlights and discovering the places in between.

From the moment you step aboard Le Dumont d'Urville, the pace slows and the Aegean takes centre stage. Sail between islands where mythology, religion and everyday Greek life intertwine. Stand inside the Cave of the Apocalypse on Patmos, where St John is believed to have written the Book of Revelation, wander the preserved ruins of Delos, birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, and watch Santorini's towering cliffs appear as the ship sails into the caldera. Explore the colourful harbour of Symi, stroll the marble laneways of Hydra, where cars are replaced by donkeys and water taxis, and linger over long lunches of fresh seafood and local wines overlooking the sea.
