Description

The second unit of the new generation of Ponant ships, Le Champlain, doesn’t betray the values of the company: the “Nordic” elegance of the rooms, the refined furnishings, and the attentive service. Le Champlain offers a beautiful pool suspended above the sea, a Spa with a sea view sauna, a series of inflatable boats on the highest deck that will be lowered into the sea to discover the most beautiful and interesting destinations. From the French inspired cuisine, to the service, to the luxury suites, Le Champlain offers all the right ingredients for an inviting cruise with great attention paid to the client and to destinations that few ships in the world can offer.

My first experience with Ponant. I wanted to try this new ship on a route from Spain to the Canaries. What can I say, excellent service, beautiful ship, really a great cruise company. I recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy intimacy, privacy and a family environment.
