Ponant will offer nearly 30 one-of-a-kind itineraries for the 2023-24 winter season, of which 13 are new.
New sailings include the 10-night “Nordic Discoveries & Traditions” itinerary in Norway aboard Le Bellota, which will include meetings with the Sami people, “the last European Indigenous people who have practiced traditional reindeer herding since the 17th century, plus authentic experiences like dog sleighing, ice fishing, and snowshoeing,” Ponant said.
