Creator's Key Takeaways

Seriously, Explore 2 definitely nailed the outdoor spaces on this ship.

We didn't have a single bad meal on the ship.

We'd 100% sail them again and 100% recommend them.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go to the spa on a port day or earlier in the day to avoid crowds.
Plan at least one night at Anthology for the specialty dining experience.
Try the buffet, especially the stir-fry noodles and made-to-order pasta.
