our trip to tahiti
If you’ve been following us on social media, you’ll know that we’ve been traveling up a storm, lately. First we were off to French Polynesia for a gorgeous (and safe!) cruise on our luxury yacht cruise partner, Windstar Cruises. And on the heels of that, we sailed on another of our preferred cruise partners to the Bahamas.
Why take a cruise, now? Well, honestly, it’s pretty much the safest way to travel. On each of these ships, everyone was vaccinated. Everyone was tested before boarding, and no one was making a fuss about wearing a mask when in public, indoor spaces (or outdoors where social distancing wasn’t possible). Can you say the same when you’re living your life at home? When you go to the grocery store? When you’re at a bar or restaurant? We think that the average cruise ship is probably a safer environment than just about anywhere. So, yeah, we’re absolutely comfortable to take a luxury yacht cruise right now.
And what a trip it was!
Our preferred supplier Windstar is the exact opposite of what most people think of when they think of cruising. The ships are luxury yachts — either motor yachts or with tall sails. No belly-flop competitions by the poool. No buffets. No crowded ports. These cruises are true luxury, with cuisine curated by the best chefs in the world (thanks to their partnership with the James Beard Foundation), and going to ports where the big ships can’t go.
And Windstar in in Tahiti most of the year! They really know French Polynesia, and there are lots of reasons to book your trip to Tahiti as a Windstar Cruise.
