First Class on Ultra Luxury Cruise | MSC Explora

Get started with Odoo for free today: www.odoo.com/r/a7M
Today I’m trying one of the world’s most luxurious new cruise lines, MSC Explora Journeys on Explora 1. I’ll be spending the next 7 days onboard this ultra luxury ship, starting in Lanzarote and sailing for 2000 miles all the way to Barcelona, Spain. I’ll show you exactly what it’s like from my suite (which is one of the best onboard) to the fine dining at the many restaurants and all the luxurious amenities / facilities.

It’s insane to me that at such a high price point, you’re still charged for some of the dining options!

Totally agreed, you have to really watch out for all the exclusions / up charges. I love cruising too, but I’ve certainly been stung a few times not realising.

[@emman6941]

Couldn't agree more. On some lines the food that is included just is not up to par. You have to pay extra to get a decent meal. And on some of these new ships you have to pay to use the bells and whistles. The prices are now ridiculous and they want to Upsall on everything. They are fleecing passengers and there will come a time when passengers say that's enough. We were all prevented from holidaying properly for 2 years, but enough of ripping people off

[@harrynicol6599]

It’s very cheeky for them to swap out the room champagne to a cheap bottle while charging $21k to book.. this ship looked lovely but was quite style over substance from what I could see

[@ricebeansrockroll882]

The "champange is complementary everywhere, except here" in the resturant got me.

[@stuartrowena4371]

"Style over substance ": Funny you should say that as I was thinking the same thing but regarding the overy snobby food & not so much the ship. As an interior lighting & designer myself, I've always appreciated high quality materials and understated elegance. However, many would regard that level of design as perhaps pontzy and pretentious whereas I wouldn't. Yet when it comes to having hot-n-cold running chamber maids, overly pretentious food and wine, and private Butlers etc, oddly enough, that is where I draw the line. I guess we all have a slightly different take on what is "style over substance " to others.

[@harrynicol6599]

@@stuartrowena4371 what I saw as style over substance was a marble toilet and Rolex store on the sea but they can’t cook a crème brûlée and serve £30 champagne.. seems like they can’t make their mind up whether it is a premium product or not

[@ryandamon714]

Hi

[@Kayjee17]

I've said it before - Will has Hobbits in his ancestry, not enough to make him short, but definitely enough to be able to eat that much and still be regular sized! Seriously though, the travel-tubers who aren't paid to advertise and given comped trips will schedule all their various traveling for a month or two during the year, then work their regular jobs while they edit and release everything they filmed during their travel time. That way, guys like Will can give unbiased reviews by paying for their own trips, but still have jobs in order to make the money to pay for it. If a company gives Will something for free, he will tell us on the video, but he still gives it an honest review... that's why I like him.

[@aidanmullan]

I lost my Dad a few months ago and I would have loved the chance to do more things like this with him. I hope you and your Dad had a great time and continue to build memories together

[@thesitdownwithjeffnadu]

I lost my dad 8 months ago and watching this made me smile. I only wish I would’ve been able to do something like this with my Dad. All the best to you and your Dad Will. Looks like you had a great time. Soak up all the time you can with him

[@andreasniggemann]

Was on that ship in 2023 in an Ocean Suite #6038 (single occupancy) in the caribbean. Payed only 5800 Euros for 10 nights. All in all a very good product for a reasonable price. 5 Restaurants, many drinks, fast internet included. Entertainment was so-so. Champagne on the arrival day in the suite was Veuve Clicquot Brut.

[@buzzweebee8685]

You can cruise for 7 days, in a lovely suite, for around $3k usd. The suite Will booked is almost top of the line. We thoroughly enjoyed our Explora Journeys experiences and have booked another. I am a little miffed about the Champagne change. At our suite level they served Veuve and the house pour was Moët, now it’s Mercier Brut.
