Boarding Explora 2 – Inside Our Luxury Cruise Experience | EXPLORA JOURNEYS

Is Explora Journeys the best luxury cruise line around today? Join us as we board Explora II and share our first impressions of the Explora Journeys experience — the new luxury cruise brand from MSC Cruises. Filmed during our 7-day sailing of the Eastern Caribbean in December 2024 — embarking in Bridgetown, Barbados and disembarking in Miami, Florida.

Newly delivered in September 2024, the ultra-luxury ship Explora II is an intimate mid-size ship that pampers guests with inviting interiors, relaxing outdoor spaces, and perhaps the very best food at sea. Watch and see if you agree with us that Explora Journeys is changing the game in the luxury/ultra-luxury cruise market.

  1. Thank you for the tour. We are sailing on Explora II next year for our Anniversary – which is Valentine’s Day. We are looking forward to trying the Explora Journey’s experience. Cheers!

  2. Great to see you are making videos again. With only 300 passengers in the 900 passenger ship, the service on Explora must have been exceptional with no lineups for anything on the whole cruise. Lo
    oking forward to seeing the dining video.

  3. Just got off Explora II on January 6. It was an absolutely fantastic cruise. The service was stellar. The spaces ample and the food delicious. For me this was the best cruise I’ve been on. For my parents this was their 60th cruise and by far their most enjoyable.

    Thanks for sharing your experience.

  4. Another great ship tour! Definitely looks like the line for foodies. Like the number of pools. Has more of a high-end yacht look than a traditional cruise ship. Is that how it feels?

  5. Great video and agree wholeheartedly on the buffet, easily the best at sea or on land! If you could only combine Explora's buffet with Oceania Riviera aft outdoor seating you would have the perfect venue. No doubt the finest ship at sea, but there is something about the fellow passengers on Oceania that makes it hard to pick a no. 1 overall. Thanks for your hard work and looking forward to your next video!

  6. Diana, this video was excellent!! So helpful for our first Explora cruise in November. I’ll be watching all of your Explora videos!

  7. Great video and look into Explora II. My wife and I are thinking about booking a cruise with Explora Journeys because we are MSC Cruise vets and always cruise in the MSC Yacht Club. Have you two ever cruises in the Yacht Club? If so, how would you compare the two?

  8. I'm so glad I found your video! A small-ish ship, lots of space, great style, amazing food and not a child in sight, maybe this is the cruise line of my dreams… Thank you so much for sharing so much helpful insights.

  9. Very nice video , looking forward to see more content 😊 my wife and me are going on Explora II in march , gonna try to make some memory video ourselfs, thanks for the inspiration 😊

  10. I've seen a lot of videos giving a general tour of Explora and I really think yours was the best. It seemed like I could feel the vibe of each of the spaces. Not sure whether it was the lack of passengers that gave you the freedom to be more relaxed with your shots or what, but I wanted to compliment you on capturing the essence of the public spaces, lounges and restaurants. Definitely makes me want to try the line as soon as we can.
