Our program requires only a modest amount of time and effort to take in all the knowledge you need to find, cultivate, sell to, and keep the type of client that will enjoy our luxury soft adventure cruises in Tahiti, French Polynesia, and the South Pacific.
We welcome you to the program and remind you that we want to hear from you all along the way as we continue to extend the spirit of Polynesian hospitality to some of the most magical places in the world!
