THE NEW JOURNEYS COLLECTION
SEPTEMBER 2027-MAY 2028
Explora Journeys’ brand new collection of voyages invites travellers seeking ultra-luxury destination discoveries to explore inspiring itineraries and gain fresh perspectives on each new port of call, curated with curiosity, wellbeing and connection at the core.
Authentic cultural encounters, enriching experiences and an onboard ambience that exemplifies modern, European luxury await in each of these new voyages, encouraging discerning travellers to explore the world with a renewed outlook and deeper connection.
For the very first time, EXPLORA III will sail to Asia, where vivid culture meets natural wonder, unveiling sacred temples, tranquil gardens, and dazzling skylines.
The latest addition to the fleet, EXPLORA V, will make her debut in the Mediterranean during the quiet season, before joining EXPLORA I in the Red Sea and Arabian Peninsula.
EXPLORA II & EXPLORA IV will return to the turquoise waters and sun-soaked beaches of the Caribbean, with EXPLORA II venturing into the raw, untamed beauty of the Amazon.
INTRODUCING: EXPLORA V
The newest addition to the Explora Journeys fleet, EXPLORA V, will take to the seas in 2027 for her inaugural season in the Mediterranean. With the intimacy of a private yacht and the elegance of ultra-luxury cruising, she will intertwine refined design, attentive service and immersive destination exploration for a cruise experience that exceeds expectations.
Emphasising space, light and connection with the open seas, EXPLORA V will showcase expansive outdoor public spaces, luxurious interiors and cutting-edge features. Her debut season will include itineraries sailing the historic treasure troves and golden coastlines of the tranquil Mediterranean, before journeying east to the Red Sea and Arabian Peninsula to join EXPLORA I in pursuit of dramatic landscapes and rich, ancient heritage.
