The pleasant weather and longer days that accompany the arrival of spring invite us to break from routine, take a break, and why not treat ourselves to a getaway, even a short one. Whether for those who couldn't travel during Easter or for those who, after those days of rest, are already dreaming of the next one, the Mediterranean presents itself as a nearby, varied, and perfect option for disconnecting without complications for a few days.
In this context, Explora Journeys offers a different way to travel by sea, with short 4- and 5-night itineraries aboard EXPLORA I and EXPLORA II. These routes are designed to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace, where comfort, space, and thoughtful design are as essential to the experience as the destinations themselves.
On board, the idea is clear: travel well, at a leisurely pace. The spacious suites, each with a terrace and sea views, allow you to enjoy the journey in complete privacy. The cuisine focuses on quality and variety, and the wellness areas and common spaces invite you to relax, read, chat, or simply contemplate the sea. Everything is designed so that the time spent on board is as important as the time spent at each destination.
In addition to all this, a comprehensive offering is included as part of the experience, with nine dining options, unlimited premium beverages, access to the thermal spa, high-speed Wi-Fi, and wellness and fitness programs. It also includes transfers from the port to city centers (when necessary), a service fee, and welcome amenities such as wine, spirits, and champagne in the suite, along with the attentive and personalized service that defines the Company's style, with additional benefits in the most exclusive categories.
EXPLORA I itineraries explore some of the most interesting corners of the Mediterranean with varied proposals.
On April 29, 2026, it sets sail from Valletta on a 4-night voyage that combines history and Mediterranean atmosphere, with stops in Tunis (La Goulette), Ibiza, and Barcelona. A journey that blends very different cultures, landscapes, and lifestyles in just a few days.
On May 3rd, the ship departs from Barcelona on a 5-night route with stops in Cádiz, Tangier, Motril, and Cartagena. Here, the focus is on the south: cities open to the sea, Arab influences, and an identity shaped by a blend of cultures. This itinerary offers the chance to discover another side of the Mediterranean, warmer and more diverse.
A few days later, on May 8th, EXPLORA I embarks on a new journey from Cartagena to some of the most renowned destinations on the European coast. For five nights, it explores Saint-Tropez, Monte Carlo, Livorno, and Civitavecchia, combining history, landscapes, and the distinctive elegance of the Italian Riviera and coast.
Meanwhile, EXPLORA II offers a perfect getaway for those looking for something short but special.
On April 25 , 2026, it sets sail from Barcelona on a 4-night itinerary that includes Monte Carlo, Portofino, and Civitavecchia. This route packs some of the Mediterranean's most iconic ports into just a few days, ideal for disconnecting without the need for long journeys.
Beyond the destinations themselves, these getaways highlight a different way of traveling: more relaxed, more mindful, and without the need to always go further or for longer periods. It's about enjoying the journey, the sea, and every stop along the way, even if it's just for a few days.
Because sometimes you don't have to wait for summer vacation. Spring is also a great time to take a break, change scenery, and return with the feeling of having disconnected and made the most of your time.
