Part of the Ponant fleet, select Le Soleal itineraries are available through Tauck. Travel to mystical destinations and secret paths only a modest-sized ship can get to. There are very little limitations for Le Soleal, making her an excellent choice for those who want to see beyond the average sites. After all, isn't that what traveling is all about?

With its sleek shape and intimate atmosphere, Le Soleal is a mega-yacht that follows in the steps of her sister ships, L'Austral and Le Boreal. Le Soleal sails under the French flag, and joined the Ponant fleet during 2013.

Containing 132 staterooms and suites, some with balconies, this luxurious yacht provides top of the line service. The contemporary decor is inspired by the glamorous yachting world. With its fluid lines and vibrant colors, combining natural wood with shades of grey and white, Le Soleal is quite a sight.

Le Soleal's cultivated climate is polished by the quality of workmanship and architecture. The warmth of the leather that dresses the ships hull is contrasted by the white corinthian counters in the lobby. Ocean-themed sculptures populate certain areas. You will also notice the tennis stripe by the long bar, representing the elegance that France has to offer.

Le Soleal's capacity is up to 264 guests, which means that you will not have to deal with an over crowded ship. There is a well-trained team of 140 crew members, dedicated to providing guests with excellent and discreet service. Elevators make it extremely easy to get around to all decks. This ship is held to the highest standard in cleanliness, service and overall quality.
