Explorer vs. Adventure?

[dongordon]

Are there major differences between these two ships?

 

My daughter was on the AOS and said it was the best cruise ship she was ever on.

No major differences except for their departure ports / itineraries.

I was on Explorer and she is my favorite ship. Except for decorative and art work the first three ships in the Voyager class (Voyager, Explorer, and Adventure) are nearly identical. Their itineraries are quite different though.

I was told that the AOS has a separate "Adults Only" pool. Is the same true with EOS?

They both have the exact same Solarium Pool which is billed as adults only. How that rule is enforced varies from ship to ship.

Agree with above posts. EOS and AOS are virtually identical except for decor.

Only major differences are ports of call. Have been on both several times and choose the ship based on which islands I want to go on. Had great time on both.

Thank you...I thought that AOS had 4 pools and EOS had 2 pools.

 

Perhaps I misunderstood.

They have the same # of pools: main pool (1 pool area with 2 separate pools), solarium pool, kids pool (very small, deck 11 aft). Again, they are carbon copies of each other, other than the decor. Only between the first 3 Voyager ships and the last 2 Voyager ships are there any variances, and those are minor.
