Explorer of the Seas Review

Additional details
First of all, I’d like to mention that this was our first experience with RCI. Before we’ve cruised with NCL and Celebrity.
Positive experiences:
- Entertainment for bigger kids; like the Flow Rider, tennis tables, the Mini Golf and the shows on ice.
Cabin Review
Superior Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony
Good cabin, everything we needed. Enough space for two adults and a 9-yr old boy. We loved the balcony. Two nice chairs and a table.
Port Reviews
Gibraltar
Beautiful views, clean streets. We booked a tour with Gibraltar Inside Out Rock Tours and had four stops: Pillars of Hercules, St. Michaels Cave, Top of the Rock with the apes and the Great Siege Tunnels. Very, very good tour, a lot of information and a very nice guy.
Malaga
We liked this city very much. Of you want, you can walk directly from the boot to the beach. You can also walk to the center. Because of the heat, we took a short suttle for a few dollars (RCI). Nice shops, nice buildings and pavements.
Lisbon
Make sure you are on deck of your balcony when you arrive. Beautiful views of the city. And very cool to sail under the famous bridge when you berth in the new cruise port. Impressive! You dock at the center of the city, just a small walk. Very nice trams, views and cute buildings and shops. Make sure you ride the tram. We love to go back!
