Sponsored by: Explora Journeys With the cruise industry booming, the new luxury lifestyle brand, Explora Journeys, is offering travelers an upscale and transformative ocean experience. Explora I is the first state-of-the-art luxury ship that has launched, with five more ships coming in the next five years. Premier Travel Expert Laura Begley Bloom joins our Laura Cavanaugh from on board the brand-new ship from Explora Journeys to give you an inside look at the ship and its plans to offer passengers an “Ocean State of Mind.” “This is not just a cruise line. It’s a luxury lifestyle brand,” said Bloom. “It’s aimed at discerning travelers, offering immersive, amazing journeys around the globe that will inspire and transport passengers.” Explora I’s design is inspired by super yachts and luxury resorts, making it more like a floating boutique hotel at sea with a European sensibility and a vibrant, cosmopolitan vibe. Passengers can curate their experience with top-tier culinary experiences, wine pairings, ocean wellness, spa treatments and adventures. For more information, visit www.explorajourneys.com
