Hilton and Explora Journeys have teamed up to bring a new dimension of luxury travel to Hilton Honors members with the launch of Hilton Honors Adventures, a program focused on immersive, adventure-driven experiences at sea and on land. This exclusive collaboration allows members to earn and redeem Hilton Honors Points on ultra-elegant ocean voyages, opening a world of curated itineraries from the Mediterranean and Northern Europe to the Caribbean and beyond.
Explora Journeys, the privately owned luxury cruise brand of the MSC Group, currently operates two ships, with a fleet of six expected by 2028. Known for its spacious suites, exceptional dining, and thoughtfully designed experiences, the brand emphasizes a slow, intentional approach to travel it calls “The Ocean State of Mind.” Guests are encouraged to immerse themselves in each destination while enjoying personalized service and tranquil spaces aboard the ship.
Starting this summer, Hilton Honors members will be able to book these voyages directly using their loyalty Points, seamlessly integrating luxury ocean travel into Hilton’s award-winning program. Ahead of the full launch, Hilton Honors is offering a limited-time preview offer through June 7 featuring 16 specially curated Journeys at exclusive savings. These voyages give members a first look at the extraordinary ocean experiences, combining exploration with the comfort and familiarity of Hilton’s hospitality.
Anna Nash, president of Explora Journeys, said in a press statement, “This partnership unites two brands committed to thoughtful travel, meaningful connection, and deep discovery. 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, Hilton’s president of global brands and commercial services, added, “Explora Journeys defines the pinnacle of luxury ocean travel. This partnership is the perfect moment to launch Hilton Honors Adventures, introducing new ways for our members to experience iconic destinations and hidden gems around the world.”
Hilton Honors Adventures expands beyond the sea with additional immersive experiences on land, including a partnership with outdoor hospitality provider AutoCamp. Members can continue to enjoy Hilton’s flexible loyalty benefits across more than 9,000 properties, including over 1,000 luxury and lifestyle hotels.
With this collaboration, Hilton Honors Adventures offers members unprecedented opportunities to combine curated adventure with loyalty rewards, redefining what it means to travel luxuriously while earning and redeeming points. Whether exploring oceans or iconic destinations on land, Hilton Honors members now have new ways to turn dream trips into memorable experiences.
