Luxury French Cruise Line Offers Adventure Voyages from Colon to Cape Horn
  
MARSEILLE -- (November 6, 2013) – Compagnie du Ponant, the luxury French-flagged cruise line sailing to all seven continents, offers captivating itineraries in South America, with 10 different cruises starting from Panama in Central America and crossing the famed Panama Canal all the way to the Tierra del Fuego archipelago of southern Chile, and around Cape Horn, calling on countries including Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia.
Compagnie du Ponant’s South America cruises explore the vast continent from its Equatorial forest, to the wide expanses of the Atacama Desert, the lush plains of Patagonia, and the glaciers of the Chilean Fjords. Passengers will discover its varied landscapes, indigenous peoples and cultures, passionate history, and extraordinary wildlife, as well as have an opportunity to delve into the secrets of the lost cities at Machu Picchu, the great civilizations of the Maya, Inca, and Aztecs, and the mysterious Nazca Lines.
Compagnie du Ponant offers expedition-style cruising aboard three 132-stateroom sister ships, Le Boreal, L’Austral and Le Soléal, which just launched in July 2013. Unlike most expedition trips, Compagnie du Ponant provides guests with a private yacht-like feel, luxuriously appointed staterooms and suites, gourmet cuisine, and carefully curated excursions, all presented with a refined French flair.[Back to Press Releases Main]
