Cruise Description

18 days | Papeete • Moorea • Gambier • Adamstown • Ducie Atoll • Hanga Roa • San Juan Bautista • Valparaiso

In the infinite expanses of the South Pacific, you are on the way with the VASCO DA GAMA to the most beautiful places in the world. In French Polynesia you will not visit the overcrowded Tahiti, but the much more tranquil Moorea and look over the shoulders of the locals in their everyday life. On Gambier you relax between glittering lagoons and extinct volcanoes. On the Pitcairn Islands, you'll be amazed at how diverse a single archipelago can be. And on Easter Island, the 800 or so moai (stone statues) will captivate you. On a Sunday you will anchor - without any Friday - in front of the island, which served as a model for Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe".

Highlights:
- Dive into the world of two classics of world literature: "The Mutiny on the Bounty" (Pitcairn Islands) and "Robinson Crusoe" (San Juan Bautista).
- Experience slow cruising in its most beautiful form: With plenty of time in areas of the South Seas where hardly anyone but you is on the move - for example on the uninhabited Ducie Atoll.
- Enough time on Easter Island to look at the moai so closely that you will end up recognizing the differences between each stone statue.
- During your time aboard the VASCO DA GAMA, you will not only enjoy magnificent views of the endless expanses of the South Pacific, but also top-notch entertainment.
