Sail around the world in comfort and style with Explora Journeys, a new ultra-luxury cruise line offering impeccable service, refined accommodations, exquisite cuisine, and unique destinations.
I recently had the opportunity to experience an Explora voyage first-hand during a 10-day sailing to Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, and Mexico. I was truly impressed by the world-class Explora cruise experience and wish to share a few of the unique features that set this luxury cruise line apart.
Explora Cruise Ships Are Brand New and Gorgeous
Explora Journeys is a brand-new ultra-luxury cruise line that debuted in 2021. The company’s first ship is Explora I, a sophisticated and well-appointed vessel that can accommodate up to 922 guests. Designed to feel like a private yacht, Explora I has cosmopolitan European elegance at every turn.
Explora cruise ships feature 461 ocean-front suites in various configurations. Though each accommodation is absolutely stunning, one of my favorites was the Premier Penthouse, which offers 560 square feet of living, dining and sleeping space. The walk-in closet, spacious bathroom and large verandah make this suite an ideal place to unwind in ultimate seclusion.
Beyond the elegant suites, Explora cruise liners boast six gourmet restaurants, 12 upscale bars and lounges, five heated pools, and an expansive spa. The ship is the pinnacle of modern luxury.
Travel Tip: Every detail is considered with Explora Journeys. For instance, the cruise line created a signature scent for its ships in partnership with master perfumer Alberto Morillas. Called Mandala Blue by Explora Journeys, the fragrance is lovely and timeless.
Explora Cruise Service Is Outstanding
The service onboard Explora I was flawless. From the moment I arrived until the end of the journey, the crew made me feel special and pampered. Get ready to be spoiled!
Explora Journeys features a 1.25:1 guest-to-host ratio, meaning your every whim will be catered to at a moment’s notice. The hosts are attentive and discreet, offering unmatched precision and careful attention to detail throughout the voyage.
Return Home Refreshed and Rejuvenated with Explora Wellness Offering
Wellness is a top priority of Explora Journeys. During my recent sailing, I enjoyed daily restorative activities such as yoga, Pilates and strength training. The spa is tranquil and chic, with 11 treatment rooms and a wellness area featuring heated, cold, water and relaxation features.
Explora Cruise Entertainment is Thoughtfully Curated
Explora Journeys specializes in enriching and thoughtfully curated entertainment. On my voyage, for instance, we marveled at the beautiful sounds of contemporary violinist Doug Cameron. Explora also partners with Steinway & Sons to bring renowned pianists onboard, and the Gallery d’Arte offers a sophisticated immersion into the visual arts.
Explora Voyages Sail All Over the Globe
Though my cruise traveled to Central America and Mexico, Explora Journeys sails to an array of unique locales around the globe. From the Mediterranean and Western Europe to South America and the Amazon, Explora voyages explore the world’s most exclusive destinations.
Travel tip: Explora Journeys partners with leading hoteliers offering bespoke accommodations around the world. To delve even deeper into the destination, I recommend a pre- and post-journey hotel stay.
