My daughter Cindy just came back from Tahiti and the Paul Gauguin. She has been about four times before and said the product is now superior to any of her other trips. They spent a ton on updating the ship and she said the lunches were the best she has had on any ship.
I have some time in August and September 2013 and on August 17th there is a 11 night program, the regular Tahiti ports plus Aitutaki and Raratonga in the Cook Islands. This is a prime time to visit this area, temperatures are lower (their winter) and it is the dry season.
I have been to Tahiti 16 times before but it started to sound appealing to me. If anyone is interested I will see if I can get a group rate. Email me or post here.
