Explora Journeys Overview
Explora Journeys represents the ambition and long-held dream of the MSC Group and the Aponte family to create a transformative luxury ocean travel experience and brand that redefines the luxury cruise category.
Why are they unique? They don't think of themselves as a cruise line but rather a creator of journeys - enriching, respectful journeys that are inspired by the thing they are most passionate about - the sea. Explora Journeys is reinventing and redefining the classic luxury cruise, breaking conventions to deliver a uniquely different, new style of transformative ocean travel that inspires exploration in all its forms, all with a spirit and style of vibrant, cosmopolitan and relaxed European luxury.
With the first of four luxury ships scheduled to set sail in 2023, itineraries will elegantly blend renowned destinations with lesser-travelled places for a journey that celebrates discovery and connections.
Onboard Ecplore I, Explora Journeys will provide spaces that offer guests relaxed luxury - creating a home at sea - with 461 spacious and elegantly designed oceanfront suites, penthouses and residences, all with a private terrace. Guests will be spoilt for choice across nine distinct restaurants with flavors from around the world, whilst the array of indoor and outdoor pools, and the holistic wellness and fitness facilities ensure guests can take time for themselves and truly let go.
Explora Journeys' style of service is authentically warm, cultured, intuitive and effortless - it's why they think of themselves as the perfect hosts, ensuring guests' expectations are always met and exceeded, while allowing them to truly relax and be themselves. This is perhaps the most important point of all - by intuitively understanding their needs, Explora Journeys helps their guests restore life's essential balance with a combination of discovery and appreciation for wellbeing and nature.
All this, to help guests discover the Ocean State of Mind - reached only with Explora Journeys.
