Great video! I think I'm now sold on Eplora! The best part is I learned what a diffuser is! Who knew? haha.

You are so welcome! We had an amazing time!

Thank you for these videos on Explora Journeys - there are so few on KZread (that aren’t from travel agents). We are trying them out in March 2025 in the Caribbean - looking forward to it.

Thanks so much. We really enjoyed it!

Glad the staff had time off. We agree price will go up considering gratuities, and everything included wow. We leave extra for staff anyway.

Forgot going to try that sole. Thanks.

Splurging on the Serenity Residence east. med this Oct, can't wait. Regarding the limit of people in rooms, I think it is a choice. Have sailed many times with kids in a suite w/ them on a couch bed... there's no getting around the fact that if feels less luxuious (though it's obviously more cost-effective)

Great video as always ❤ I'm assuming that the price you mentioned did not include airfare like ncl offers?

Thanks so much! The price does not include airfare.

Thanks for the review really useful unfortunately not so cheap for solo travellers but love the sound of the dining options Have you tried Viking? interiors are very similar Keep up the good work 😊

We haven’t tried Viking yet. Definitely on the list though. When we find good deals on our list we book.

Found your channel searching for Explora 1. Nice information. We’re going January. I have a question. We have 300 euro on board credit. We can use it for excursions. Do you know anything about excursions?

@lindsayslivealittle

Thanks so much and glad you found our channel. We looked at the excursions while onboard and they offer a great variety. Seemed to have a good mix of both cultural and activity focused.

I am pretty sure the prices have already exploded. Glad you got such an amazing deal! $5,000 for a week in a suite is very reasonable.

We were just looking last night and still saw some pretty good deals in the Med. not as good as we got but still around $7000 for 7 nights in the Med is a good deal.

@@lindsayslivealittle that is a good deal for everything you get! Retreat for a week on the edge ships are over that!

Sailing in the Greek Isles late September. I am happy to hear good things. I have a large 'OBC' or whatever they call it. It can't be used until we board and with everything except excursions I am not sure what I will use it for. Any thoughts? I worry that the good excursions will be sold out before I get a chance to book them with OBC.

@lindsayslivealittle

They have an extensive list of excursions once you get onboard. Don’t believe you will have trouble finding a perfect excursion once you board.

Je recherche les navires de qualité, luxe , calme , adulte , plein d’autres compagnies pour les enfants . Excellents navires

Question, was there enough shade up on deck? We love sitting in the open air, but try to hide from the sun and read our books.

@lindsayslivealittle

We felt there was plenty of shade both permanent with awnings/covers and plenty of large umbrellas.

How did you find out about explora ? I went on their website and most of their sailings are not from the the US . I would consider your itinerary but I couldn’t find anything in the near future on the west coast. Love your content

We sailed Explora last Sept and they have Starlink and one of the fastest implementations we’ve experienced - 120mb plus download speeds!

Is there a BID FOR UPGRADE type of program on Explora?

@lindsayslivealittle

Not sure they have an upgrade program.

How do you think it compares with Seabourn, Silversea, etc.? The 6 star lines.

@lindsayslivealittle

Not sure it is fully up to the standards of the 6 star lines but we have never done those lines.

We’ve sailed Crystal, Regent, Silversea and Seabourn and would rate Explora Journeys right up there - the food is top notch and the ship well designed. Happily returning next year for another month on board

Hate to say it but it sounds kind of boring. I’ve heard the ship has felt kind of empty on many sailings. But she’s a beautiful ship and glad to hear the food and service was so great.

Totally understand. Just like all cruise lines and ships, not everything is designed for everyone.
