A note from your charter specialist
If a client asks me for a yacht that simply gets it right, SPIRIT OF PONANT is usually my first call. With space for 12 guests, she works equally well for a multi-generational family week or a tighter group of friends who want every cabin to feel like a suite. In Africa especially, the itinerary options around her are exceptional — and the crew know every anchorage worth the detour.
