Luxury cruise line Explora has unveiled its collection of Grand Journeys for 2025 and 2026.
The itineraries feature lesser-travelled destinations such as the Azores and Madeira, with immersive onshore experiences.
Guests will also get an enhanced programme of performances, workshops, and conservation sessions, ranging from live music by local artists to guided arts and crafts workshops.
New for 2025 are one-week Ocean Wellness retreats, including meditation, treatments, fitness, and beauty.
Explora Journeys President Anna Nash said: “Our Grand Journeys represent the epitome of transformative ocean travel.
“These journeys are designed to provide our guests with the ultimate luxury of time, space, and personal discovery, while delivering curated experiences both onboard and ashore. At sea, the slower pace invites reflection. Explora Journeys’ Grand Journeys are designed for those who seek not just to see the world but to be transformed by it.”
Grand Journeys include a 21-night ‘From Caribbean Coves to Iberian Charms’ from San Juan to Lisbon on EXPLORA II on 7 March 2025 and a 13-night ‘From Andalusian Shores to Coral-Laden Lagoons’ from Barcelona to San Juan on EXPLORA I, on 27 October.
