This was our third trip on the Paul Gauguin. It is a great small ship, about 320 passengers. All inclusive including tips and alcohol. Only extra is for shore excursions. They do a spectacular job in this region. On our trip Jacques Cousteau's (sp?) son Jean-Michel was a guest lecturer which was great as was going on three dives with him.

Cruisecritic has tons of info on the ship and if you want any more infor feel free to PM me. Rangiora is very isolated and has spectacular diving and snorkeling.
