Having just returned from a special anniversary trip to French Polynesia, I would highly recommend this as a special "bucket list" adventure. Lorraine had suggested it a couple of years ago, and everything she described was right on. We spent 10 days on the Paul Gauguin cruising the islands and atolls in luxury with superb food, attentive service and spectacular scenery. As Lorraine says, "every view is a picture" and it is so true. She also encouraged us to take a helicopter tour of Bora Bora which will be a lifelong highlight memory, to go with swimming with sharks and rays! Lorraine is able to make suggestions based on her clients' interests and nature and so was able to recommend renting a car when most appropriate. She also follows up with her bookings and keeps in touch. It is a real benefit to have a skilled professional available when/if things "go wrong" and although this trip was flawless, she has helped us out in the past providing service "above and beyond". If tropical paradise is on your to-do list, French Polynesia is it and we plan on traveling again with Paul Gauguin Cruises.
Thanks Lorraine
