Ponant has released a new series of expert-led themed itineraries for 2025 that welcome notable experts and special guests and include tailored programming and shore excursions.

Each themed itinerary is designed to inspire guests by blending cultural immersion with expert insights, allowing for a richer appreciation of the history, sights, sounds, and flavors of the destinations.

New itineraries feature an exploration of the Iberian Peninsula’s rich tapestry of cultures, and a musically themed voyage from Glasgow to Bordeaux with special appearances by Boston Pops conductor Keith Lockhart and six internationally renowned musicians.

“While PONANT is known for our immersive expeditions and exploration, we also curate themed voyages that invite guests to embark on a more personalized journey of discovery that speaks to their individual passions and curiosities,” said Samuel Chamberlain, PONANT Exploration’s CEO of the Americas. “With robust expert-led enrichment tailored to pique a unique range of interests—whether gastronomy, history, or culture—these bespoke voyages offer enriching onboard programs and illuminating shoreside experiences to reveal each destination through a distinct lens. The result is journeys that exceed expectations and deepen both understanding and connection on a profoundly personal level.”

Where traditional PONANT voyages are operated in both French and English, these themed departures are operated in English only while preserving the company’s signature French flair and heritage in onboard delivery and service.
