For Journeys that Matter
LUXY Ride connects Explora Journeys guests with a professional chauffeur through our partner network, arranged in advance rather than hailed at the curb. The fare is set before the trip begins and includes gratuity and tolls.

Getting to Know Explora Journeys
Explora Journeys is one of the newest brands in ocean cruising, built around a smaller, design-forward fleet. Its Caribbean season runs primarily from Miami, with San Juan, Puerto Rico also serving as a departure point for select sailings on the newer ships joining the fleet.
For travelers newer to the brand, the terminal experience at PortMiami is the same one used by several other major lines, so the transportation side of the trip is familiar even if the ship itself is new. LUXY Ride's confirmed chauffeur and flat rate apply the same way regardless of how established the line is.
