Aranui 5 - On the "big way" to paradise

You still cannot believe it. You are sitting on your balcony in front of your cabin with a tropical drink aboard the modern Aranui 5. The ship is just leaving the port of a Marquesa Island. In the Maori language, Aranui means "the great way". A South Seas dream came true.

The Aranui 5 of DERTOUR Kreuzfahrten commutes as a mixture of cruise, ferry and freighter between the most remote islands of the South Seas. This combination can create authentic contacts with the inhabitants of the South Sea islands. They think back to yesterday's meeting with the young islander who visits his parents.

The Aranui 5 has comfortable cabins and suites with balconies for the travelers as well as swimming pool, sundeck and restaurant. There are also simple hostel cabins for the ferry guests. Here the passenger experiences a truly heavenly journey.
