Explora Journeys has officially expanded its Greek portfolio, introducing inaugural calls to Pylos and marking a triumphant return to the island of Amorgos. These additions are a direct reflection of the brand’s “slower luxury” philosophy—prioritizing meaningful, immersive connections over the typical tourist track.
“We are inviting our guests to discover a different side of Greece—one that combines authentic cultural encounters, extraordinary natural beauty, and a profound sense of place,” explains Justin Poulsen, Head of Itinerary Planning and Shore Experiences.
Why These Stops Matter
-
Pylos (The Peloponnese): Debuting this year aboard EXPLORA II, Pylos offers a rich blend of history and coastal sophistication. Beyond its charming town, visitors gain access to the prestigious Messinia region, home to world-class golf at Costa Navarino and some of the most pristine coastlines in the country.
-
Amorgos (The Cyclades): A returning favorite, Amorgos remains one of the Aegean’s best-kept secrets. Sailing into the port of Katapola, guests can hike ancient pathways or visit the breathtaking Monastery of Hozoviotissa, which clings dramatically to the cliffside.
