Following the opening of reservations suites with three-day Grandstand access, Explora Journeys is pleased to announce that sales are now open for two of its most exclusive Formula 1® hospitality experiences aboard EXPLORA I during the FORMULA 1® LOUIS VUITTON GRAND PRIX DE MONACO 2027. Returning to Port Hercule from 2 to 7 June 2027, EXPLORA I will be the only ship of its kind docked in the harbour, placing guests alongside one of the world's most prestigious sporting and social events. Guests can now secure F1® Paddock Club™ VIP Hospitality, starting from €37,000 per person, or Monaco Triple Crown Paddock Club™ Hospitality, starting from €40,000 per person, with both experiences including a five-night stay aboard EXPLORA I. With a limited number of places available, guests are encouraged to reserve early to secure their preferred experience.
“Few sporting events capture the imagination quite like the Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco, and there is no better vantage point than Port Hercule from which to experience it,” said Anna Nash, President of Explora Journeys. “Our return for a third consecutive year reinforces our connection with Monaco and our ambition to offer guests exceptional experiences that extend beyond the traditional ocean journey. With EXPLORA I positioned just moments from the circuit, guests can enjoy the excitement and atmosphere of race weekend, before retreating to the space, privacy and refined hospitality of their own floating hotel. It is this seamless combination of access, exclusivity and the Explora Journeys experience that makes our presence in Monaco so compelling.”
