WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
I am not someone who enjoys booking holidays as I find the whole process quite stressful. However, Lisa was very helpful in giving me all the information and answering my many questions. She was also very efficient, friendly and patient, which made the whole process much easier.”
“We have returned from a 10-day break with Explora Journeys and have just rebooked for another sailing next year. The service and price are excellent. We deal with Laura and would highly recommend her as an agent. Experienced and professional.”

Our award-winning team of luxury cruise experts offer a truly exemplary service, only enhanced further by our first-hand experience of life on board Explora’s ships. Several of our Specialist Cruise Concierge at SixStarCruises have been lucky enough to step aboard the fleet, gaining knowledge which enables us to inform and provide unique expertise to our customers.
“The ship is stunning and I have to say, out of the 46 cruises I have now done, Explora Journeys was the best service I have experienced at sea.
The ship does have more of a hotel vibe to it as opposed to a regular cruise line, with lots of smaller, more intimate areas. There are three pools on different decks at the Aft and multiple dining options on board, The Sakura (Pan Asian) was my favourite restaurant, we dined here multiple times!”
Lisa, Specialist Cruise Concierge
“My first impression of the ship took my breath away, with opulent surroundings and a tranquil ambience everywhere on board.
When we weren’t exploring ashore, we were enjoying incredible cuisine in a variety of venues, an extensive range of fine wines and wonderful decadent entertainment. From three outdoor pools to an incredible selection of onshore activities, the Explora Journeys experience is truly unforgettable.”
Andy, Specialist Cruise Concierge
