The Gulf of Bothnia, at the Gateway to the Arctic

Between gastronomy and diplomacy, enjoy a unique experience aboard the Commandant Charcot, where culinary arts serve the cause of international relations. In partnership with the Club des Chefs des Chefs, you will travel in the company of Gilles Bragard, founder and president of the Club; Cristeta Comerford, former Executive Chef of the White House; Guillaume Gomez, former chef of the Élysée Palace and ambassador of French gastronomy, present on board during the first days of the cruise; as well as Sylvie Bermann, the first woman to serve as France's ambassador to the United Kingdom, China, and Russia. It’s raining stars in our bed. This sensitive evocation of the Arctic night, which is the title of Scandinavian poetry collection, invites us to the best seats in the house to watch the union between the vault of heaven and the earth’s crust, beneath a multitude of stars. In the delicious comfort of Le Commandant Charcot, experience winter at the gateway to the Arctic, admire the spectacle of the Gulf of Bothnia, between enchanted landscapes and traditions, and from the Stockholm Archipelago discover a magical world in half-light. Experience the period of Kaamos, the polar night, during which luminosity is reduced to a twilight of 4 to 5 hours per day, representing everyday life for the local population  The itinerary may be altered based on port approvals and to comply with applicable government regulations  Please also note that the sailing programme, shore visits and activities cannot be guaranteed, as they are subject to weather conditions. *The land-based activities and excursions can be conducted in English with a translator if required.
