Curacao
Mapped by Columbus. Fought over by the Spanish, French, Dutch, Danish and English. The Southern Caribbean is a parade of islands and idyllic harbours that beg to be discovered. The Lesser Antilles — Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao — are islands of desire that beguile with vivid flamingos, pink-sand beaches, wind-bent divi divi trees, and Dutch windmills. The curvaceous shore of Colombia leads to an overnight in Cartagena; a tropical city with a seductive blend of 500-year-old history, exuberant nightlife, and surreal beauty. Magical reality continues in Puerto Limon; skywalk in a virginal forest and ford rivers in search of anteaters, sloths and blue butterflies. Marvels continue as we glide under the Bridge of Americas to negotiate the locks of the Panama Canal. With front-row views aboard EXPLORA I, you experience one of the most amazing man-made wonders where the triumph of engineering and the human spirit connected two shining seas.

Oranjestad
Walk into a technicolour dream of sorbet-hued buildings in Oranjestad, where a Papiamento Indian past mingles with the trendy Dutch present. Slide into a submarine and descend along coral-crusted walls to see the magnificence of the ocean depths. Marvel at a landscape rugged and wild with wind-bent divi divi trees, kilometres of powder-white beaches and sandy deserts where cacti thrive under a luminescent sun. And don’t miss the Natural Bridge, formed by waves crashing on coral rock. Aruba is an island blessed.

Puerto Limón
Welcome to your reprieve from the 21st century. Slip beyond the bounds of the city and step into a primordial paradise that is 100% committed to wildlife preservation. Board a narrow-gauge railway, monster truck, tree-top tram, or quiet kayak to delve deeply into a ecological bio-sphere of surreality: howler monkeys call out in Cahuita National park; stealth jaguars and pumas prowl throughout Tortuguero; gentle sea cows and turtles curiously raise their heads in palm-fringed rivers. Pura vida, the good life, continues with yoga on the beach, hiking wondrous in cacao farms or in the convivial kitchen on a Master Chef. Live well, vivir bien.
