Come aboard Le Soléal for an unforgettable voyage.

In collaboration with The Explorers Club, this unique voyage will feature Dr. Alison Ormsby, an interdisciplinary environmental scientist who specializes in forest conservation, park management, environmental education, biocultural conservation through sacred natural sites, and global sustainability.

In New Guinea, the traces of the modern world end at the edge of impenetrable rainforests, mysterious volcanic fjords and pristine coral reefs. These last wild frontiers are home to countless communities with ancestral and secret traditions. In Papua New Guinea, on the shores of Alotau, Tufi, Madang and Kopar, at the mouth of the Sepik River, meet them amidst traditional ceremonies and fascinating landscapes. In Indonesian territory, unspoilt nature reveals its treasures: whale sharks in Cenderawasih Bay, the karst islands of Triton Bay and the immaculate beaches of the Kai Islands are all invitations to explore.

The wildlife encounters are possible experiences and cannot be guaranteed.
