Paul Gauguin Polynesia cruise - fares from £1,103

The m/s Paul Gauguin was designed specifically to sail the shallow seas of Tahiti and French Polynesia, visiting small ports that larger ships can’t reach and effortlessly blending into the stunning natural beauty of the South Seas. She offers an extension of the informal, relaxing environment of the islands, coupled with five-star service, comfort and luxury. Spacious suites and staterooms (more than 70% with private balconies), an onboard watersports marina, a choice of three open-seating dining venues and an extensive spa are among her luxurious attributes. The atmosphere aboard ship radiates warmth, informality, and Polynesian flair. A troupe of Gauguines-a local Tahitian group who serve as cruise staff, entertainers and storytellers-add the unique personality of Tahiti to every cruise.

Luxury river cruises are growing in popularity and today’s modern river cruise ships offer 5-star accommodation, wonderful amenities and high quality food. Many also include shore excursions and port tours adding to the great value a luxury river cruise offers.

The benefit of a luxury river cruise is that the river boats can dock in the heart of the destination - allowing you quick and easy access to the wonderful sight-seeing offered. You will enjoy having scenery outside your balcony all the time, and of course there is no sea sickness. Stopping at small villages is also a delight of a river cruise - and with just a few other passengers on board (from 60 to about 150) no area feels swammped when you disembark - its very relaxing and thouroughly enjoyable.

You can cruise on the Nile, Danube, Rhine, Russian Waterways, Douro, Elbe, Mekong and Yangtze. Below are some of the more popular luxury river cruise itineraires - we can of course book your flights, pre cruise hotels stays and private transfers.

Tonight enjoy the chance to meet your fellow travellers at a Welcome Reception. After dinner, settle in to your suite, relax in an onboard lounge or take a stroll through the city.
14 Night Stay: A luxurious APT river ship. D

CRUISE FROM BUDAPEST TO AMSTERDAM
Day 2. APT EXCLUSIVE! Budapest, Hungarian State Opera House.
With its intriguing history, incredible architecture and rich cultural heritage, Budapest deserves its reputation as the Paris of Central Europe. Following breakfast, disembark for a sightseeing tour that includes such places as 500 year-old Matthias Church, St Stephen’s Basilica, the distinctive Fisherman’s Bastion, the marvellous Royal Palace and historic Buda Castle, where you have views of Buda and Pest over both banks of the river. In the afternoon, exclusive to APT, visit the Hungarian State Opera House which hosted its inaugural concert in 1884, and is today widely recognised as one of the most splendid examples of Neo-renaissance architecture in the world. Absorb the grandeur of the building from outside, then ascend its majestic steps and venture inside to bask in the intimacy of an exclusive guided tour, a glass of champagne and a delightful private opera recital of two or three ariettas. Following time at leisure, tonight head to the ship’s elegant restaurant for the Captain’s Gala Wel-come Dinner. Afterwards, as the lights of the city are sparkling on the water, enjoy the first of many performances on board in the ship’s Showroom - tonight, enjoy the sweet sound of music performed by local Gypsy violinists. BLD

THE BLUE DANUBE
Day 3. Bratislava, Freedom of Choice Touring.
Having crossed the Hungarian border, this morning your ship reaches Bratislava, the Slovakian capital. Upon arrival disembark and visit Bratislava Castle, where you will marvel at the sweeping views across three countries - Slovakia, Austria and Hungary. Then join your selected Freedom of Choice Touring activity. You might like to embark on a medieval tour of the city, taking in the Old Town Hall, Mirbach Palace and Gothic St Martin’s Cathedral. Or perhaps take a Communist tour that will examine the architectural landmarks of the city’s not-so-distant Communist past. After your tour, the rest of the day is at leisure for you to further explore. This evening, the ship continues cruising towards Austria and its capital, Vienna. BLD

Day 4. Vienna, Freedom of Choice Touring.
Today enjoy a full day to savour the elegance of Vienna. This morning, select from our Freedom of Choice Touring options. The first, a city tour, takes you to see Hofburg Imperial Palace, the Vienna Opera House,
St Stephen’s Cathedral and Ringstrasse as well as a traditional coffee house to sample delicious Austrian coffee and cake. Your second option is to travel by coach to Schönbrunn Palace, the summer palace of the Hapsburgs and former home to Empress Maria Theresa. Tour the inside of this magnificent residence then enjoy ample time to explore the beautiful gardens at leisure. Both groups then return to the ship for lunch
on board. The afternoon is yours to further explore Vienna at your leisure. After dinner tonight, perhaps join us for an optional Mozart and Strauss concert (own expense). BLD

Day 5. Dürnstein - Melk.
This morning reach the Wachau Valley and stop in Dürnstein to tour the medieval streets, which reveal 16th century townhouses and wine taverns. Here, high above town, lie the ruins of the castle where Richard the Lionheart, the King of England, was -imprisoned in 1192. At lunch, cruise to Melk, where you’ll disembark for a guided tour of Melk’s Benedictine Abbey, one of the world’s most famous monastic sites. Located above the town on an outcrop overlooking the Danube, it has survived as an active Benedictine monastery since its foundation. Later, a wine tasting highlights your visit to the Wachau Valley.

Here you’ll have the chance to see one of the oldest bridges crossing the Danube and take a tour of the city’s architectural highlights including the Old Town Hall, the World Heritage-listed city centre and the Porta Pretoria - gates to an ancient Roman fort built in 179 AD. The streets of Regensburg are bicycle-friendly, so you may even like to borrow one of our bikes and take in the sights from a different perspective. Tonight, enjoy a music performance on board after dinner. BLD

MAIN-DANUBE CANAL AND MAIN RIVER
Day 8. Nuremberg, Freedom of Choice Touring.
Today enter the Main-Danube Canal, straddling the Franconian Alps via 16 stair-step locks. Having taken 32 years to construct, the canal was completed in 1992 and is truly a feat of modern engineering. It links the North and Black seas, enabling ships to cross the entire continent. Cruise through the Altmühl Valley and dock in Nuremberg, a city that played a pivotal role for the Nazi Party and was thus systematically bombed by the British and US air forces during World War II. Today, select from two touring options. Perhaps take a medieval tour, visiting the 900 year-old ramparts that surround the city, the Imperial Castle, Kaiserburg Fortress and more. Alternatively, enjoy a World War II tour, visiting a range of significant sites that played
a role for the Nazi Party and the Allied army during World War II. BLD

Day 9. Bamberg.
Today, you’ll disembark your ship just outside Bamberg and travel by coach into this enchanting city. As one of the few cities in Germany that wasn’t destroyed by bombs during World War II, Bamberg was declared a World Heritage-listed site in 1993. Here, you’ll enjoy a tour of the city’s serpentine streets, which feature charming houses and 18th century mansions. Then, during time at leisure, perhaps visit a traditional Bamberg Beer Haus and enjoy a local brew compliments of APT, before you continue your cruise, now on the waters of the Main River. BLD

Day 10. Würzburg, Rothenburg.
This morning after breakfast, you’ll disembark the ship right in the very heart of Würzburg, the capital of Lower Franconia.

in styles from Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque to Modern.

After dinner, the ship continues along the Main River towards Miltenberg. BLD

CRUISING THE MAIN RIVER
Day 11. Miltenberg, Wertheim.
Still in Germany this morning, arrive in Miltenberg and travel by coach to Wertheim. Known for its glassworks, Franconian wine and friendly people, Wertheim is strategically located where the Main and Tauber rivers meet. The time you’ll spend here is an ideal introduction to a typical medieval village. After time at leisure to explore, return by coach to Miltenberg for a tour of this lovely Franconian town, revealing narrow cobblestone streets and half-timbered houses. Afterwards, re-board the ship and watch a glass-blowing performance then sit back and relax as you cruise through the valleys of the Main River. BLD

CRUISING THE LEGENDARY RHINE
Day 12. Rüdesheim - Rhine Castles - Koblenz.
Today, arrive in Rüdesheim, a great example of a Rhine Valley wine town.

views of the steep slopes covered in vineyards and dotted with ancient castles and castle ruins. Cruise past the pretty villages of St Goarshausen and Boppard, among others, as well as legendary Lorelei Rock. Then, after dinner, tonight’s Crew Show concludes a great day of cruising. BLD

Here, a guided tour of the city will take you through a selection of these pretty lanes and alleys, before your ship continues cruising. Late this afternoon, you’ll reach the cruise’s last port of call in Germany - Cologne. Here, enjoy a walk through the city and see Cologne Cathedral. BLD

Day 14. Cologne - Amsterdam, Freedom of Choice Touring.
After a morning of cruising you’ll have crossed the German border and arrived in the Netherlands. Dock in Amsterdam and select from our two Freedom of Choice Touring options.

Alternatively, visit the Van Gogh Museum, containing the world’s largest collection of Van Gogh paintings. Back on board tonight, join your fellow travellers for a special Farewell Dinner on board.
