Travel as story, not itinerary.

Two decades shaping luxury brands including Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger taught Louis that the details most people overlook are often the ones that define an experience. Which suite faces the sunset. Which sailing actually matches how you travel. Which ship feels right.

He studied Folklore & Mythology at Harvard and design at Parsons, and both taught him the same thing: the best experiences have a point of view. When you reach out, Louis doesn't start with availability, he starts with you. The voyage follows from there.

Ocean-front suite interior on Explora Journeys

Why We Love Explora

Feels closer to a private yacht.

Every suite is ocean-front with a private terrace. The European design philosophy runs through everything, and the adult-leaning calm is the point. With one check-in, you experience a new destination every morning. One in three people who sail with Explora have never cruised before, and almost none of them expected to feel the way they do at the end of it.

Suite selection

The suite you choose changes the way the journey feels.

Every suite on board is beautiful. The right category depends on how you actually travel: terrace orientation, deck position, how much time you'll spend in the room, the intimacy of an Ocean Terrace Suite versus the extra space of an Ocean Penthouse. This is the most common reason people work with us.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nothing — I'm paid by the cruise line, not by you. You send me your details, I ask the right questions, and within a day or two I come back with a handful of sailings I think genuinely fit. From there we narrow it down together, I handle the booking, and I'm available from first inquiry through the day you board.

I specialize in the upper tier of the luxury market — lines where every cabin is a suite, the ships are small, and the all-inclusive model means you're not nickel-and-dimed once you're on board. The right line depends on how you travel, what you want the experience to feel like, and where you want to go. That's what I figure out before making any recommendation.

Maybe — and I mean that honestly. The luxury end of cruising looks nothing like what most people picture. Small ships, no crowds, no agenda you didn't choose, service that feels like a fine hotel rather than a resort. A lot of my clients came in as first-timers. What matters more than cruise history is whether the pace and style match how you like to travel.

That's the job. The differences between lines at this level are real — the feel of the ship, the food and beverage philosophy, how port-heavy or sea-day-heavy the sailing runs, the guest mix. Once I understand what you're after, I'll put two or three options in front of you that I'd genuinely stand behind, and explain why each one fits.

Most luxury lines include all dining venues, premium drinks throughout the day, Wi-Fi, gratuities, and often specialty coffees and in-suite minibar. Spa treatments, premium shore excursions, and certain rare bottles are usually extra. I'll walk you through exactly what's covered before you commit — no surprises.

Most sailings require a deposit of 20–25% at booking, with the balance due 90–120 days before departure. I'll explain the exact terms and cancellation schedule before anything is put down. Flexibility matters, and I'll tell you honestly when a sailing has more or less of it.

Yes. Several of the lines I work with have eliminated the solo supplement on select cabin categories — historically the biggest frustration for solo luxury travelers. I'll flag the sailings and cabins where it makes sense so you're not penalized for traveling alone.
