Only the best and delicious meals on board the Explorer of the Seas

No matter what kind of diner you are whether you prefer it more casual, eat only meat or like vegetarian and healthy options, everyone has been accounted for. To begin with the Main Dining Room forms the self-explanatory main dining area where you can sit down and eat at any meal of the day and choose from delicious multi course menus. However for a more casual atmosphere you should go to the Windjammer Café where there is a wide selection of food from all over the world, including appetising pasta, soups, meat dishes, sandwiches and food made to your specifications too. Jade Sushi is a brilliant place to try out delicious sushi and other Asian dishes including fusion dishes for a more healthy diet. Make sure you visit Portofino where you can sample the delights of fine Italian dining and have an excuse to dress up smartly. There is a small charge for the Portofino dining experience but this is a small price to pay for the amount of pleasure it gives to each and every guest who comes to visit.

The luxury suites are also especially serene and elegant.

The aforementioned Royal Promenade is the heart of Explorer of the Seas. Full of cafes, diners and shops, it resembles an all-American shopping mall. A good place to while away a few hours! Stroll along the Promenade with a milkshake or an ice cream and pretend you are in a movie.
