As the original cruise company in French Polynesia, Aranui Cruises has been introducing the enchanting Marquesas Islands to avid adventurers for more than 30 years. Aranui 5, a custom built passenger freighter, 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. This boutique vessel offers an intimate and casual setting for guests to explore French Polynesia. Nearly all of the crew are proudly Polynesian and delight in sharing their beautiful homeland with visitors. Their insider’s perspective and openness creates an atmosphere unlike any other cruise line sailing Tahitian waters. Whether at special dinner events, as part of the on-board entertainment or assisting you from ship to shore on the tenders, you will become well acquainted with the lively and talented crew members.
See the Islands of Tahiti from a different view, take in the culture and have an adventure on this trip of a lifetime.
