Discover one of the world's most remote destinations -- the lush tropical region between French Polynesia and Easter Island -- on an expedition voyage aboard the comfortably elegant Clipper Odyssey. Take full advantage of the ship's ability to reach seldom-visited islands that are alive with abundant flora and fauna and are mostly inaccessible to larger vessels. Embark in Tahiti, inspiration for artist Paul Gauguin, and set sail for Bora-Bora, the low coral atolls of the Tuamotu Archipelago, and the United Kingdom's Pitcairn Island Group -- isolated between Australia and South America with a footprint of only 14 square miles. Visit Pitcairn (home to descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers), as well as uninhabited Henderson and Ducie -- rich with subtropical plants and endemic wildlife. Disembark the Clipper Odyssey at Easter Island for an overnight hotel stay and time at leisure to wander among the mysterious stone moai of this World Heritage Site.
