Multigenerational Journeys - onboard Explora I with children

[aururab]

I am currently onboard Explora I with my kids, ages 11 and 7, and we have been beyond impressed with everything 24 hours in! 
 

There has been a lot of discussion on here regarding luxury cruise lines and kids, and this sailing is probably the first time the Nautwith 22 kids onboard.

 

All the hosts have been so sweet with them, and the Nautilus Club is small but amazing, taking them all over the ship, swimming, basketball etc. They currently ditched us to go hang out with their!

 

We are in connecting suites, as the max occupancy is 3 per suite, and of course it is an amazing amount of space for the 4 of us. The connecting suite had beds thar converted to twins, and a bathtub instead of a shower, which is perfect for them! 
 

Today we had lunch at Sakura, and the chef modified the salmon a bit to make it perfect for the kids palettes.

Glad to hear this. Yes 22 is the most kids they’ve had.

22 kids is fine, especially if well behaved. But a kids luxury cruise line is not something we see ourselves doing on a regular basis. I don’t think the other luxury lines have anything to worry about!

Would love to hear an update on how things are going. Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Everything is going great, we are enjoying a beach day in St Barth’s, and my kids are bargaining regarding how much time they can spend in the kids club today!
