Set your heart aglow and immerse your senses with jaw-dropping views painted in dreamlike colors, for here is an adventure you will never forget. Scenic, sacred, and sublime, the captivating splendor of the Society Islands has long been a muse for artists and authors—Matisse was greatly influenced by "the light and enchantments of the sky," and Michener declared Bora Bora the most beautiful island in the world. The same poetic beauty that inspired Melville, Stevenson, and Gauguin himself is revealed with artfully authentic insight on this enriching journey.

Fall in love with the "Pearl of the Pacific" as Bora Bora is known; an overnight here invites an escape to our private beach one day, and time to venture inland on an off-road adventure the next.
