Your home for all 16 nights aboard Explora I — so you unpack once and wake up somewhere new each morning.
About This Cruise
The 16 Night A Grand Journey from Atlantic Exploration to Mediterranean Delights is a 16-night one-way itinerary aboard Explora I. You board in Miami and disembark in Barcelona, calling at 7 ports across 5 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Florida (Miami), Puerto Rico (San Juan), St. Maarten (Philipsburg), Madeira (Funchal) and Spain (Cadiz, Malaga, Barcelona).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Miami and home from Barcelona, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 10 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
