Activities

When it comes to activities available on board, guests won’t be disappointed with the array of enriching experiences available. There’s traditional favourites including a library and card room and of course the sublime swimming pool with ample sun bed space and two luxurious whirl pools to melt away your troubles. However, the Explorer has something more unique available with its Culinary Arts Kitchen offering guests a chance to get hands on and learn new recipes and cooking skills from the talented Regent Chefs. On selected sailings, guests can even join the Chefs as they go ashore to gather ingredients for the evening menu, giving tips on how to pick the freshest and best quality items and sharing information on how they’d use the ingredients to create the dishes.  The Canyon Ranch SpaClub is also a true highlight of this stunning ship, featuring an array of treatments including seaweed wraps and ayurverdic and aromatherapy massages. For guests that like to be pampered then the salon offers manicures, pedicures, hair care and other luxurious beauty treatments. For guests who don’t want to skimp on their exercising at sea, then the Fitness Suite and Recreation Areas on the ship will certainly come in handy. Equipped with state of the art machines, the fitness centre has treadmills, weight benches and a Nautilus machine. Qualified Canyon Ranch fitness experts even provide several exercise classes throughout your cruise. When you’ve worked up a sweat and your muscles are aching you’ll feel like you’ve earned your reward which is a blissful soak in the infinity pool which is the most impressive pool we’ve ever seen at sea.
