Explora Journeys, Hilton set sail with debut of Hilton Honors Adventures

Explora Journeys and Hilton have unveiled Hilton Honors Adventures — an extension of Hilton’s guest loyalty program focused on immersive, adventure-driven travel, with Explora Journeys as the exclusive luxury ocean travel partner.

By summer 2026, Hilton Honors members will be able to dream, book, earn, and redeem their Points to set sail aboard Explora Journeys voyages from the Mediterranean to Northern Europe to the Caribbean and beyond.

Now through June 7, 2026, to celebrate the announcement of Hilton’s partnership with Explora, Hilton Honors members can participate in a limited-time preview offer created to reflect the spirit of the partnership.

While Hilton Honors Members can choose from all Explora Journeys’ global itineraries, a thoughtfully curated collection of 16 Journeys has been highlighted for this preview offer. The selection introduces Hilton Honors Members to the extraordinary experience of ocean travel, with exclusive value savings applied to these Journeys.

Anna Nash, President, Explora Journeys, said: “This partnership unites two brands committed to thoughtful travel, meaningful connection, and deep discovery. At Explora Journeys, we believe in giving our guests the time and space to slow down, choose intentionally, and feel truly in tune with their surroundings; this is what we call ‘The Ocean State of Mind.’ Together, we’re offering Hilton Honors members a stay at sea that blends the freedom of the ocean with the warmth of genuine hospitality. Our goal is simple: to create moments that are effortless, personal, and crafted with care, always guided by our commitment to the wellbeing of our guests.”

Chris Silcock, President, global brands and commercial services, Hilton, said: “Explora Journeys defines the pinnacle of luxury ocean travel and unparalleled experiences. This exciting new partnership creates the perfect moment to launch Hilton Honors Adventures, introducing new ways for our members to experience iconic destinations and hidden gems around the world.”

Highlights of the partnership include:

* This partnership invites Hilton Honors members to enjoy Explora Journeys’ modern vision of ultra elegant ocean travel defined by spacious suites, curated dining, and transformative Journeys.

* Explora Journeys is the luxury ocean travel brand of the MSC Group with two ships currently sailing and a fleet of six ships by 2028.

* By summer 2026, Hilton Honors members will be able to earn and redeem Points on luxury ocean travel experiences through a new partnership with Explora Journeys.

* Limited-time preview offer gives Hilton Honors members the opportunity to book Explora Journeys with exclusive benefits that reflect the spirit of this new partnership, ahead of the ability to earn and redeem Points from summer 2026.
