What to Expect on Explora IV
01
"Home at Sea" — Spacious Oceanfront Suites
Explora is designed more like a luxury hotel or private yacht at sea than a traditional cruise ship. Suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows, private terraces and generous living space. EXPLORA IV includes Ocean Suites, Penthouses and multiple Residence categories.
03
EXPLORA IV's Chef's Table
One particularly interesting offering for your executive group is The Chef's Table, an intimate private dining experience exclusive to EXPLORA III and IV. Guests collaborate with the chefs to create a personalized menu.
05
Sophisticated Social Spaces Instead of Traditional Cruise-Crowd Entertainment
Explora emphasizes elegant lounges, bars, pools, enrichment and entertainment rather than making the ship feel like a conventional mass-market cruise. EXPLORA IV includes offerings such as Shore Club on 11, The Cellar, Journeys Lounge, Explora Lounge, Helios Pool & Bar and Astern Lounge.
02
A Highly Inclusive Luxury Experience
Explora includes nine distinct culinary experiences, unlimited beverages—including fine wines, champagne and premium spirits—Wi-Fi, Ocean Wellness thermal-area access, group wellness activities and onboard gratuities.
04
Ocean Wellness & "Ocean State of Mind"
Explora's wellness philosophy combines spa, fitness, beauty and wellbeing, with experiences intended to promote relaxation, mindfulness, energy and personal renewal.
06
Adult Social Life & Sophisticated Nightlife
Explora Journeys is designed around refined adult social experiences rather than a traditional family-cruise atmosphere. Guests can move between upscale bars, lounges, live entertainment, cocktails, wine and spirits, late-night conversations, and intimate social settings throughout the ship. EXPLORA IV offers venues such as The Cellar, Malt Whisky Bar, Journeys Lounge, Explora Lounge, Astern Lounge and Helios Pool & Bar, creating multiple environments for adults to socialize and connect.

Steinway Piano Bar
Explora IV
The sophisticated sound that emulates from the fingers of a talented piano musician in the Explora IV piano bar. This concept is not only strikingly beautiful, it also creates a social and calm environment during performances.
