Our guests say it best!

"I have just returned from a Broome to Darwin 10 nights cruise on Le Jacques Cartier. It was a fabulous cruise - wonderful itinerary; spectacular scenery; exquisite food and wine, beautiful well appointed cabins, great entertainment and facilities. The excursions were wonderful with brilliant naturalists. We saw so much wildlife - birds, crocs, turtles, dugong, dolphins and sea snakes and were wonderfully informed by the naturalists. All the staff in board provided excellent customer service and were extremely helpful. Bi lingual staff for providing all information and activities. Great mix of French and international travellers. I highly recommend this wonderful adventure to explore such a beautiful and remote area of Australia - it certainly was an adventure of a life time!"
