Explora Journeys’ third ship, Explora III, will operate a preview sailing next June, ahead of its inaugural cruise from Barcelona in August 2026.
The five-night ‘Mediterranean Prelude’ sailing will depart from Genoa in Italy on 24 July, finishing in Civitavecchia (Rome) on 29 July.
Explora said: “Designed as an intimate and immersive behind-the-scenes preview, this one-time journey is an invitation to discover the elegance and innovation of Explora III before she is introduced to the wider world during her inaugural journey from Barcelona to Lisbon, 3 to 10 August, 2026.”
The preview cruise will stop at Marseille, St Tropez and Villefranche-sur-Mer in France, and Livorno in Italy, before arriving in Civitavecchia.
