The Seven Seas Explorer recently completed its 10th year of service after being delivered by the Fincantieri shipyard on July 1, 2016. Ordered three years earlier as Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ first newbuild in over ten years, the ship introduced a new design to the company’s fleet. Following a handover ceremony at Fincantieri’s Sestri Ponente yard in Genoa, Italy, the Seven Seas Explorer sailed to Monaco for its inaugural festivities. For its maiden voyage, the Explorer offered a 14-night cruise that sailed from Monte Carlo to Venice, Italy. Currently sailing between Whittier and Vancouver, the Explorer is currently offering cruises to destinations in Alaska and Canada.
