A Gastronomic Discovery
Taking guests on a unique culinary journey through Italy.
Refined Italian Cuisine
As our signature fine-dining experience, Anthology elevates Italian cuisine, offering an unparalleled gastronomic adventure.
From the renowned flavours of Piedmont’s truffle-rich countryside in the North, to the famed specialities of Italy’s South, each plate celebrates the local produce and time-honoured techniques of every region in Italy.
The menu is an ingenious display of creativity – a vibrant tapestry of regional flavours and authentic ingredients which invites guests to immerse themselves in the different styles and tastes of Italy’s universally loved cuisine.
Contemporary, Refined Elegance
With the opportunity to dine outdoors, Anthology offers an intimate yet elevated dining atmosphere with flawless, attentive service.
An immersive, authentic dining experience offering the finest Pan-Asian cuisine
Named after the cherry blossom – the national flower of Japan – and symbolic of renewal and optimism, Sakura offers Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, and Malaysian flavours for a taste of Pan-Asian cuisine that is both authentic and energising.
The space takes inspiration from Japan’s rich cultural heritage blended with distinct Japanese design cues, to create an intimate and welcoming environment. The ancient tea rooms of Kyoto provide the inspiration for Sakura’s aesthetic, where dark wood frames lead your eye to the ceiling, adorned with a blossom tree canopy which envelops diners in a warm atmosphere of festoon lights.
Authenticity extends to the kitchen, where chefs follow traditional techniques – using only the very best carefully sourced ingredients.
Expansive ocean views, a Sake sommelier, Asian-influenced beverages – including a curated selection of sakes and shōchū – combined with seamless further enhance the experience.
Signature Dishes at Sakura
Wagyu beef tataki, wakame salad, smoked Madagascan pepper
Our sustainably sourced prime grade five Japanese wagyu beef is delicately torched by our chefs: an authentic method of cooking that ensures that the cut’s best qualities are preserved.
Makrut lime pavlova, mango brunoise, passion fruit, mango sorbet
A fusion of east and west, this unique interpretation of pavlova is a perfect representation of the passionate, creative expertise and multicultural diversity of our talented pastry team .
Kale salad
Another example of our chefs’ ingenuity, a humble kale salad is transformed into culinary art for our guests to enjoy. This superfood salad represents a fusion of clean living with the flavours of Asia.
Inspired by the marbling found in only the finest beef, Marble & Co. Grill serves exceptional cuts, personally sourced and sustainably farmed.
The menu has been designed to take guests on a journey of discovery, with sumptuous, rare meats sourced for their flavour and distinctive provenance. More than a steakhouse, Marble & Co is the realisation of a vision where careful attention to ingredients and passion for cooking come together to create a truly special dining experience.
This redefined European steakhouse experience is reflected through the modern, understated yet sophisticated design with soft lighting and relaxed, attentive service. The experience is augmented by an in-house dry ager and a cellar boasting a superb selection of fine wines.
Signature Dishes at Marble & Co. Grill
Grilled prime rib, aged 30-days, cherry tomatoes, Hollandaise sauce
Provenance and quality take centre stage, to create the finest version of a steakhouse classic. From a local producer in Deux Sévres region of the lush Loire Valleé, it’s clear why the famous Jersiaise breed, renowned for its sensational flavour and intense marbling, is one of the most sought-after cuts or prime rib. To truly appreciate this beautiful cut, it is topped simply with cherry tomatoes and a sumptuous Hollandaise sauce.
Crushed fingerling potatoes, Le Beurre Bordier butter from Normandy, Calvisius Oscietra caviar, crème fraîche, chives
A simple dish executed with the finest ingredients. The crushed fingerling potatoes are made with Bordier butter, arguably, the finest butter in the world, served only in the finest establishments. Potatoes are topped with Calvisius Oscietra caviar, known the world over for being some of the best quality caviar available; the caviar is sustainably produced in Italy, in an area rich with fresh spring water, contributing to its high quality and low-salt flavour.
A relaxed celebration of the flavours, ambience and la dolce vita of the Mediterranean.
Inspired by sailings across crystal clear waters, the Med Yacht Club is influenced by sophisticated, beachside Mediterranean restaurants, embracing the varied cuisines of the region.
Effortlessly refined in its design, space creates a relaxed, convivial atmosphere, where bright sunshine streams through large portholes and Med-influenced music transports guests on a culinary journey inspired by the sea.
Infusing the tastes and textures of Italy, Spain, Greece, France, and North Africa – while incorporating plant-based, vegetarian and wholesome ingredients – the menu serves sharing plates for guests to enjoy with friends and family alike.
Wines too showcase the rich vineyards of the Mediterranean, with fresh juices and cocktails honouring regional produce.
Signature Dishes at Med Yacht Club
Grilled octopus, San Marzano tomato sauce, Taggiasca olives, green beans, parsley
If ever there were a singular dish to represent the importance provenance plays in the ingredients used onboard Explora Journeys, then this is surely it. Sharp sundried Taggiasca olives compliment the sweet San Marzano tomatoes, creating a perfectly balanced bed for the expertly grilled, sustainably sourced octopus.
Sweet caprese with cherry tomatoes, strawberries, burrata, pesto
A true representation of the creativity and skill of our chefs, this sweet interpretation of an Italian classic will surprise and delight in equal measure. The finest cherry tomatoes and strawberries create an intriguing base, upon which our burrata sits adorned with even more sweet tomatoes and strawberries with a drizzle of pesto from Sicilian Bronte pistachios.
Energetic all-day dining, celebrating the finest flavours from across the globe.
Drawn from the Greek word emporion (ἐμπόριον), an Emporium is defined as a place offering many different things.
Onboard Explora Journeys, the Emporium Marketplace draws on this origin, providing an effortless all-day dining space, bringing global culinary talent and produce to the fore. Offering diverse cuisines with a focus on quality, Emporium Marketplace allows guests total flexibility in what they choose to eat, and when.
Bathed in natural light, several separate cooking stations evolve throughout the day with white marble and minimalist design accents, allowing the freshest ingredients to take centre stage.
Dishes include sushi, fresh seafood and a daily rotisserie offering grilled, roasted, and slow-cooked meats. Pasta is cooked to order, and freshly baked pizzas and bread are on offer as are home-made sandwiches. Charcuterie, fromagerie, boulangerie and patisserie stations add even more choice.
A selection of wines, champagne and beverages are also available to complement meals throughout the day.
Signature Dishes at Emporium Marketplace
Handmade tortelloni, ricotta cheese, spinach, tomato-sage butter
It’s often the simplest dishes that take great skill. Our tortelloni are made onboard from scratch every day in the authentic Italian way. Carefully selected flour is used to make dough that has the correct degree of elasticity; this is essential to giving the tortelloni their mouth-watering light and silky texture.
Plant based chia yoghurt
Our chia yoghurt is daily made from homemade cashew milk, creating a fusion of delicious creamy flavours for guests to enjoy each morning.

Rainbows of the mist at Iguazu Falls
Iguazu Falls, Brazil, Argentina
Nestled in the cooling jade of a tropical jungle, there is no other place where you will feel more connected to the natural world than when you are standing before Iguazu Falls. Belonging to the realm of superlatives, Iguazu is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site with more than 250 falls that stretch 2.7 kilometers and plummet from heights up to 82 meters. Renowned as the largest waterfall system on earth, it is higher than Niagara and wider than Victoria Falls. It also boasts the greatest water volume with an estimated 1 million litres per second.
Your fantasy tour takes flight as you are buckled into a helicopter that flutters like a hummingbird over the site. Your accommodation at a celebrated 5-star hacienda-style hotel also has the distinction of being the only hotel within Brazil’s Iguaçu National Park.
Lochs, highlands, and epic history to match
Scotland, United Kingdom
Scotland is a destination of epic proportions. Green glens and rugged coastlines dotted with charming villages where a millennium of fascinating history and traditions are still relevant in a modern world. Helicopters whisk us to remote mountain ridges crowned with rarely seen lochs and staggering vertical drops.
Astronomers take us into the “darkest” dark sky park in the UK to study an infinite number of blazing stars. 900 years of tradition call us to a Highland “gathering and games”. And hikes into national parks lead us to picturesque reindeer herds. With accommodations in opulent castles and sumptuous dining experiences, this experience will introduce you to a side of Scotland that even the locals have never come across.
Polar Ice Cap, musk ox, and luxury camping
Greenland
No matter how well-travelled you are, it’s difficult to wrap your mind around the experience of camping on the world’s largest polar ice cap, where vibrant blue ice colours are surreal. Welcome to the wild and wonderful world of Greenland’s hinterland.
Two-thirds of Greenland lies above the Arctic Circle and for five glorious days you will too. Under 24 hours of sunlight, we ice climb on glaciers, hop in helicopters to view vast vistas of white at the edge of the ice cap, climb into snow trucks in search of herds of shaggy musk ox grazing on the tundra, and camp outside a remote radar station in off-grid, eco-luxury lodging tents that are environmentally light-on-the-ice yet wonderfully warm and welcoming. Immense landscapes experienced in the most intimate terms.

The Pillars of Seville: Flamenco and tapas
Seville, Spain
From the first strum of the guitar and dramatic step of a foot, you are captivated. The Andalusian flamenco dance is poetry in motion; a passionate choreography of music, dance and song that is immortalised in Spain’s cultural identity. The stage is set across the threshold of a graceful Andalusian hacienda that is lovingly converted into a multi-storied museum dedicated to flamenco and tapas. This distinctive experience lets you personally delve into how women combine graceful turns with dramatic steps. How guitarists perform with lightning-fast finger-rolls. How castanets are a complicated synchronisation of beats. And how much importance is placed on the wardrobe with a visit to the world’s premier designer of dresses that is considered the Christian Dior of Flamenco. The grand crescendo is a tantalising professional performance served with tapas, wine and passion. Salud!
The private world of the Pope’s summer retreat

An ode to olives, mamas & tapas
Málaga, Spain
Sip, savour and soak-up Andalusia, the best destination for olive oil, local wine, community and comfort. Flower-line rural roads lead us to the romantically white-washed villages with old stone churches, centuries old olive groves, and charming homes where you are invited to step inside and help grandmothers, abuelas, and mamas prepare tapas in the kitchen.
The conversation and laughter mix with the wine and a myriad of locally harvested almonds, pomegranates, and vegetables. Rustic and soulfully rewarding, a day in the Málaga countryside, surrounded by a crown of mountains, will make you feel whole again.
Soul-stirring experiences that touch the impossible, from the thrill of supersonic speed to the deepest fathoms of ocean trenches.

The only remaining question is how far do you dare to go to close the distance between your dreams and reality?
