thecakebox Posted May 25, 2015 Author #26 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Really enjoying these photos. I'm on Explorer in October and have been trying to find photos since the refit. Looking forward to seeing some more of the ship and the bars, lounges etc. :) Sorry, those are all the ship pictures I have! Obviously with a baby I didn't spend any time in the bars or lounges ;) haha Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best one so far since the refit.We are cruising in September and really looking forward to our holiday, more so now since seeing all your photos ☺ That's weird, we are on the same cruise as you but I'm sure we sail in august, .

Topbuzzer Posted May 25, 2015 #31 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thanks for this review. I'm sailing on the Explorer in 5 weeks time - one of my children is also 1 year old. I know they haven't put the nursery in the refit but I had heard they have 'playgroup' sessions for 6-18 and 18-36 months - is this correct? Did you go to any? Where they good? I also heard there is a room (I think the playgroup room) fitted out with toys where parents can bring infants/toddlers - is that correct? Is it good? Also I wondered if they still do the toy-lending service where you can borrow toys and bring them back and swap regularly? Sorry for all the questions!

cymru cruiser Posted May 25, 2015 #32 Share Posted May 25, 2015 You aren't getting $500 unless it's a suite on a really long cruise, lol. We booked a balcony room on a 10 day and it was $150 obc. Same prices you can find online right now but the deposit was $150 vs $1350 or so I would have paid so that made it a good deal for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk so it should say UP TO $500 obc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never saw any playgroups advertised but that doesn't mean they didn't have them. There is a room, it looked nice but we never used it. My daughter isn't into toys so I never checked!

cruisexlife Posted May 25, 2015 #35 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I will be following along. I have no cruises planned for this region, nor on the Explorer, but I love this area of Europe and I hope to cruise it sometime soon. Thanks for taking the time to write this review! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin' Along Posted May 29, 2015 #41 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thanks for taking the time to do a trip report. I've enjoyed seeing your photos and the copies of the Cruise Compass even though our Explorer cruise is still over a year away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
