Hosted by Tiffany Hines · Seven nights from Rome to Barcelona, by way of Capri, the Aeolians, and the Riviera — group space held
- ShipExplora I
- DatesAug 30–Sep 6, 2027
- FromRome
- ToBarcelona
- Length7 nights
I’ve been waiting for the right moment to put a group on Explora, and this is it.
We sail from Rome at the end of August 2027 and finish in Barcelona a week later, with Capri, the Aeolian Islands, Corsica, Monte Carlo, and Provence in between. Explora Journeys is a different feel from a traditional luxury line — ocean-front suites, no formal nights, and a pace that leaves you time to actually enjoy where you are.
We’ve blocked space on this sailing, which means better suite choice and group amenities for everyone who joins — and it means the categories we’re holding go first come, first served. If you’ve been thinking about the Mediterranean, come with us.
Warmly, TiffanyTiffany Hines · CEO, Global Escapes
Why this sailing is special
- We’re holding space. Better suite selection and group amenities for everyone who books with us.
- An evening in Capri. We arrive at eight and stay until one in the morning — the island after the day crowds have gone.
- Lipari, in the Aeolians. A volcanic island small enough that the big ships sail past it.
- Truly all-inclusive. Dining, beverages, Wi-Fi, and gratuities are covered before you board.
- Ocean-front suites. Every suite on Explora I has a private terrace.
- No formal nights. Dress the way you’d like to on vacation.
- A refundable deposit. It holds your suite until final payment.
