Soft adventure. The road less travelled. Cultural immersion. The trip of a lifetime. The heart and soul of Polynesia. Aranui 5, a custom-built passenger-freighter which launched in 2015, is unique in every way. Combining the comforts and modern conveniences of a cruise ship while providing a cargo service to remote areas, the ship acts as a lifeline for tiny communities far removed from civilisation. She accommodates just 230 passengers, offering an intimate and casual setting for guests to explore French Polynesia.

Scenic Luxury Cruises strives to go above and beyond to deliver luxury, comfort and satisfaction with exceptional service and unforgettable experiences across its all-inclusive, five-star river cruises, six-star Discovery yachts and fully-inclusive land journeys.

Situated to the east of Australia and Indonesia, it’s broadly made up of three distinct regions: Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia.

Polynesia is the largest of the three, and is also known as the Polynesian Triangle – with Hawaii, Easter Island and New Zealand the three major island groups marking its three corners. The Cook Islands, Samoa, Tonga and French Polynesia are some of the other main islands within Polynesia.

These destinations include the islands of Madagascar, Mauritius, Reunion, the Seychelles and the Maldives.

There are Unesco World Heritage sites throughout the region, including the Seychelles’ Aldabra Atoll, where the world’s largest giant tortoise population can be found, and Madagascar’s incredible rainforests, which are home to spectacular and unique wildlife such as the famed lemur. In fact more than 90% of Madagascar’s plant and animal species are endemic to the island. 

There are a total of 19 main islands, just four of which are inhabited, and which in total account for about 3% of the total Galapagos area. The remaining 97% is the Galapagos National Park, which is a Unesco World Heritage Site.

The Chilean Fjords are a spectacular network of narrow and winding inlets cutting through the Patagonian landscape of rugged mountains, lush forests, creaking glaciers and expansive ice fields. Only accessible by ship, this region belongs to nature, with no cities or roads and no human population. Instead, only nature, wildlife, and serenity. 

Approximately 750 miles in length, the peninsula is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Gulf of California – also known as the Sea of Cortez – to the east, with the iconic Cabo San Lucas marking its southernmost tip.

A designated Unesco Marine World Heritage Site, the Sea of Cortez and its 244 islands, islets and coastal areas are a dazzling ecosystem of remarkable biodiversity, much of it endemic, that is teeming with extraordinary marine and birdlife, plant species and stunning landscapes. 

It boasts unique sites such as St. Kilda, a remote Scottish archipelago that’s one of the few double Unesco World Heritage Sites, and The Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland.

Another significant highlight is its rich cultural heritage of ongoing Celtic and Gaelic traditions, as well as the plethora of ancient castles, medieval ruins and long-deserted settlements that go back thousands of years and span Viking invasions, Roman conquests and Tudor history.

An immense and complex landscape of towering red cliffs, dramatic gorges and arid savannah intertwined with mangrove forests, thundering waterfalls, wild rivers and secluded white-sand beaches, it also boasts the world’s largest inshore reef and the only two ‘horizontal’ falls on the planet. It’s also home to the world’s largest living reptile – the saltwater crocodile, the largest population of migrating humpback whales anywhere on Earth, and important seabird and marine turtle breeding colonies.
