My friends & I, a group that amounted to over 200, had a wonderful time on the
Explorer. The crew was very helpful, hospitable, and skillful at their assigned
tasks.
I would especially like to ask that if anyone knows how to contact a crew
member, via email or otherwise, to let me know by sending a message to my email
here listed. It would be greatly appeciated so that a message of importance may
be sent to them.
We found the ship to be very well designed to keep one happily busy with
activities ranging from onboard tours of the science lab to theater
shows/comedians. And, as I mentioned, the crew knows how to treat you like
royality and does so with sincerity. A huge thank you to our great waiters,
Ercan (pronounced Er-john) and Xavier, from Turkey & India respectively. Then
also our stateroom attendant, Ophelia from Jamaica. Each of them did their part
very well to make it a voyage of happy memories.
Our ports of call did not satisfy us, however. We found the sellers in the shops
to be too pushy and greedy with high prices. Grand Cayman was the only one we
all seemed to like best. I especially liked visiting the Turtle Farm there.
All in all, I truly recommend the Explorer for a fabulos experience at sea. It
made going home quite the disappointment as a vacation should.
