SINGAPORE, 15 September 2026: Explora Journeys introduces two new Journey Collections for the traditional Northern Winter 2027-2028 season, offering South America aboard EXPLORA I and the Mediterranean and Atlantic Islands aboard EXPLORA V.
These new Journey Collections join the previously announced programme, complementing EXPLORA II and EXPLORA IV in the Caribbean and EXPLORA III in Asia.
EXPLORA I
From December 2027 to March 2028, EXPLORA I takes full advantage of the Southern Hemisphere summer, charting a course through the contrasting landscapes and natural wonders of Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, the Falkland Islands and Chile.
Guests will experience tropical shores, golden coastlines and festive celebrations, including Christmas at sea and New Year’s Eve on the Brazilian seafront.
Five overnight stays in ports such as Buenos Aires, Puerto Madryn and Rio de Janeiro promise lingering evenings, complemented by eight late departures in coastal cities ranging from Balneário Camboriú and Port Stanley to Rio and Maceiจฎ. Unveiling 20 maiden destinations along the way, including 12 in Brazil, the ship will move from lively cultural hubs into the raw, untamed majesty of the far south.
Sweeping towards Patagonia, the itinerary connects Montevideo and the wildlife-rich waters of the Beagle Channel with Puerto Williams, Punta Arenas and the legendary shores of Cape Horn. The route passes glaciers, fjords and isolated archipelagos, delivering pristine wilderness alongside refined oceanfront living.
EXPLORA V
From December 2027 to April 2028, EXPLORA’s inaugural season begins by exploring the Western and Central Mediterranean and North Africa. In January, the ship sails into the Atlantic before returning to the Mediterranean in March.
