Description

Jean-Philippe Nuel was able to make this yacht, built for Ponant by Fincantieri, into a true jewel that combines elegance and simplicity, using a style that characterizes the units of this fleet. Onboard, tradition and innovation intertwine in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere where guests are sure to enjoy fantastic experiences together. The size permits L’Austral to reach unusual destinations, including exclusive expedition itineraries to Antarctica, in which Pontant is one of the most active and specialized companies. Enjoying French or international cuisine, magnificent landscapes all around, and the highest comfort in the various types of cabins with light colors and sophisticated details, are only a part of what this mega-yacht offers.

Un'esperienza indimenticabile su una nave da sogno in un luogo da sogno. Esperienza da fare una volta nella vita, immagini e senzazioni davvero uniche. Le navi Ponant sono dei piccoli gioielli senza paragoni. Raccomando al 100%

Eine neue Erfahrung in jeder Hinsicht. Zum ersten Mal in Japan, zum ersten Mal mit Ponant. Exzellenter Service, tolle Betreuung der Gäste, komfortable Kabine. Ich hoffe, ich kann diese schöne Schiffsflotte erneut versuchen.

Crociera di spedizione meravigliosa in luoghi da visitare almeno una volta nella vita. Escusioni organizzate in modo impeccabile con guide pofessioniste e massima efficienza. Molto bello il clima familiare creatosi a bordo. Esperienza da ripetere in un futuro.
