Explora Journeys, the luxury ocean travel brand of the MSC Group, has announced Endless Worlds, its first-ever World Journey. The World Cruise will set to sail aboard EXPLORA I from 6 January to 14 May 2029.

Spanning 128 days, the extraordinary voyage will carry guests east to west across four continents, 29 countries and territories, and 63 destinations, offering a seamless global exploration from Dubai to Barcelona.

Sailing The Globe

Designed for travellers with the rare luxury of time, Endless Worlds marks a defining moment for the brand, guided by its signature Ocean State of Mind philosophy. Purposeful and unhurried, the Journey traces historic routes of trade, culture and human connection, crossing the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans in one continuous narrative of discovery. Notably, it also marks Explora Journeys’ first visit to Australia and New Zealand, expanding the brand’s global footprint.

Cross Continents

The Journey unfolds across seven distinct Passages, each crafted as a complete experience with its own rhythm and story. From Dubai, EXPLORA I sails to India’s spice-laden ports and the Maldives’ shimmering atolls, before continuing to Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia.

Guests will explore Bali and Komodo, then venture into Oceania with extended stays in Sydney, Cairns, Airlie Beach, Brisbane, Melbourne and Tasmania, followed by the dramatic fjords of New Zealand.

The Pacific chapter reveals some of the world’s most remote destinations, including Fiji, Tonga, the Cook Islands, French Polynesia and Easter Island. Crossing into the Americas, the ship transits the Panama Canal before continuing along the Pacific coast through Chile and Peru. The final Atlantic crossing features island calls such as Bermuda and the Azores, before concluding in the Mediterranean.

Luxury Abodes

Life on board reflects the rhythm of the sea, with ocean-front suites, regionally inspired cuisine, wellness experiences and curated enrichment evolving throughout the Journey. With intuitive service, seamless transfers and immersive destination experiences led by local experts, Endless Worlds is designed to remove friction and allow guests to fully embrace a truly interconnected voyage across the globe.
