Form the moment you enter your suite ( it is an all-suites cruise with terraces), you can’t believe the size of the suite, the size and comfort of the bathroom, and the comfort of that bed. The balcony is a very nice size with a table and 2 chairs, for in room dining and a launch chair for a total relaxation. The details of the room from the automatic light on the bottom of your night table so ...
I set out on my inaugural cruise in February 2024 from Panama, South America, aboard Explora 1!! I can't say enough about the gorgeous modern cruise ship, our sumptuous cabin, delicious food, amazing wines, the staff and service - all absolutely fantastic. Luxurious and first class! The easy embarkation and luggage in our room on arrival set the tone for the cruise.
We had amazing culinary ...
I was a little scared to board Explora 1 after all the mixed reviews I had read, but the price was right and this was going to be my first so called "luxury cruise" so I was still very excited. If you have never been on a high end cruise the embarkation and disembaraktion is worth it alone, you basically just walk on and walk off the ship at your leisure, that goes for all the ports as well, ...
We booked this cruise when we were on the Apex cruising Ireland and Iceland in 2022. We wanted to experience an E-class ship on a warm weather itinerary. Just my husband and I looking for a warm getaway from a winter in the Northeast. Of course, the last 2-3 winters have been pretty mild. We got a great deal on an Aqua Sky Suite with $1500 on board credit and used the last of our pandemic future ...
We are frequent cruisers, averaging about 1.5 cruises per year. We have come to the conclusion that every Viking Ocean Cruise will be wonderful and so easy for the passengers.
We chose this cruise as we would get the full Viking experience without having to take long flights. 5 hour flights, LAX to Miami and back.
Every aspect of this cruise was first class and amazing. We can’t wait till ...
Explora Journeys has set out to redefine luxury travel for the next generation, creating an experience for affluent travelers who want a luxury experience while being given plenty of options in a less stuffy atmosphere. During their fifth month of sailing, we spent eight nights traveling between Miami and Colon, Panama. Throughout the cruise, Explora met or exceeded every promise they set out to ...
I have been on a few cruises in my life, from budget to Luxury cruises. Let me tell you, when it comes to luxury, comfort, attention to detail, Explora Journeys figured out the perfect balance, between high end luxury and comfort. From the day you set foot onboard till the day you get off, the friendliness of all the hosts the luxury, the laidback lifestyle you will adopt while on board to the ...
I can't imagine any more luxury AND any better price/value than Explora for best in class cruising. We've booked 2 more cruises with them because we're afraid once this gem is discovered, pricing will go up. From the luxurious accommodations on Explora I to the staff to the cuisine to the entertainment, the specialty coffees, I honestly can't suggest any improvements. We were giddy everyday; ...
This was the BEST cruise I have ever been on. The excursions were exciting and informative. I learned so much about the Panama Canal that I never expected. During our days at sea, there was so much to do and so many wonderful people to meet from all over the world. The entertainment was great and there was something to do for everyone. Some of the activities really opened everyone up. We had so ...
We took a two week back to back cruise from, and back to, Montego Bay, Jamaica. We went to some really interesting places including Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia the first week, then Cozumel, Cuba and Gran Cayman the second week. Different experiences and feel to each port of call visited. Marella Explorer 2 was a fabulous adult only ship. Staff were so friendly and great at what they do. Our ...
