Exclusive Discerning Traveller Offer on Ponant’s Iconic Kimberley Cruise

  • Written by Rhea D'souza

Offering 30% in savings of up to $3,940 based on Ponant’s full fare price, travellers booking their next Kimberley cruise on Ponant can secure prices starting from $10,060 per person twin share for the Deluxe Stateroom. For any bookings made with Discerning Traveller, also receive €200 per stateroom shipboard credit per booking. Strictly limited availability and valid until booked.

 

These exclusive offers are valid for multiple sailings and dates between March and September 2022. Select departure dates will benefit from no single supplement.

 

Ponant’s Kimberley itineraries traverse one of the most picturesque parts of the region, the Hunter River, where guests discover wild mangrove forests, salt water crocodiles and different species of birds – all unique to the local landscape.

 

Guests also call in on Collier Bay, where they can admire the famous Montgomery Reef, home to vast expanses of coral reefs and lagoons. The promise of abundant falls, gorges, calm waters and desolate chains of mountains create a remarkable backdrop, delivering unforgettable adventures as guests discover untouched gems in their own backyard. One of the biggest highlights of the sailing is the magnificent King George River along with the highest falls in Western Australia, the spectacular Twin Falls.

 

Ponant’s expedition cruising also includes luxurious staterooms or suites, complimentary Wi-Fi, all meals served with fine wines plus open bar, 24-hour room service, steam and fitness room access, Zodiac outings, shore visits with expert guides and one of three complimentary excursions in Wyndham.

 

Ponant’s Kimberley itineraries have proven to be hugely popular with Australian cruise enthusiasts in the absence of overseas travel for the foreseeable future. This is the perfect time to secure a cruising adventure closer to home at a great price.

 

*Price based upon Deluxe Stateroom on 10n Le Soleal cruise departing 27 June 22 travelling from Broome to Darwin.
