A luxury French flagged cruise ship, part of the PONANT fleet of modern ships, with country club casual dress and quite relaxed atmosphere. Very much inclusive, including WiFi, alcohol and wine (including French champagne, gratuities (though I gave extra to my cabin steward and my favorite waiter in addition to a gift to the crew welfare fund, which it gives me pleasure to do on all my cruises).
