View Sailings Explora Journeys elevates ocean voyages for discerning travelers.

View Sailings Explora Journeys has debuted a glorious new ship, which will take its maiden voyage in August. Sailing from Barcelona to Rome, EXPLORA II (EXPLORA I debuted in 2023) will make six stops, including celebrated destinations like Ibiza, Spain, and lesser-known gems such as Italy’s Porto Santo Stefano. Its second voyage goes from Rome to Lipari, and then from Sicily to UNESCO sites, and Mount Etna before Alghero and an unforgettable overnight in trend-setting Barcelona.

View Sailings Explora isn’t content with simply helping passengers travel the world; the company is also committed to helping them taste it. Explora’s “journey of discovery” mindset introduces new cuisines and experiences served with a side of stories about the rare ingredients used in each dish. In all, Explora’s inaugural ship, EXPLORA I, offers 18 delectable experiences across six vibrant restaurants and 12 bars. Private in-suite dining and a chef's kitchen where guests can discover and enjoy diverse flavors from around the world are also on the menu.

View Sailings Uniworld Boutique River Cruises cater to those who prize authenticity over trends, and who have a deep understanding of humanity’s artistic spirit. Onboard, each ship’s journey is perfected with exquisite culinary offerings and premium beverages, all included to enhance your sojourn. Every element, from the lavish interior design to the impeccable service, is curated with a sophisticated sensibility.
