The Avid Cruiser

The creation of a cruise ship itinerary around a particular theme, be it golf, bridge, music, gastronomy, wine, history or wildlife, etc. is quite common across many cruise lines, with varying degrees of intensity or focus. Nevertheless, there are few cruise lines that offer cruises entirely devoted to classical music; Hapag-Lloyd and Ponant are the exceptions to this general rule. The post Ponant’s Music Cruises appeared first on Avid Cruiser.

On June 14, Ponant took delivery of Le Dumont-d’Urville as the ship left the port of Søvik, Norway for Bergen, ready to depart on her maiden cruise. The post Ponant Takes Delivery Of Newest Ship appeared first on Avid Cruiser.

This week on Avid Travel With Britton Frost I am passing over the torch, and the mic, to my father Ralph Grizzle as he discusses his recent Backroads sailing aboard Ponant's Le Lyrial. The post Avid Travel With Britton Frost – Sailing With Ponant & Backroads Featuring Guest Host Ralph Grizzle appeared first on River Cruise Advisor.

Ponant has announced a new itinerary for 2020. An Exploration In Nature In Costa Rica & The Panama Canal, a 10-night/11-day nature experience, will take place aboard the new explorer ship, Le Dumont-d’Urville. The post Ponant Offers Costa Rica Sailing For 2020 appeared first on Avid Cruiser.
