Hi All!
Just found out that we can tour the ship with our travel agent! He is setting up a date with RC for 9/20. We go on at 10am, get a tour of the ship and even have lunch! I am sooooo excited. Just wanted to share since I did not even know you could do something like this!

We cruised on EoS this past May, and also cruising on the ship again for our wedding next year. Its a beautiful ship. The service was outstanding.
I had found this site before our last cruise and I'm using a lot of the information for my welcome packets for our OOT bags. Explorer of the Seas

I thought it was fantastic! It is a huge ship and has lots to offer! It is very clean and in good shape considering it is 8 years old!The lunch was delicious. The cabins are nice....we decided on a junior suite just to have more room for all of the stuff we will be bringing with us to Bermuda. We checked out all of the bars and found our two favorites....his is the 19th hole! lol Portofino, the restaurant that charges $20 per person, does not accept reservations until 2 months before your sailing date. You can reserve the entire restaurant for 100 people at a cost of $2000. We decided not to have dinner there with our guests. Instead, we are going to buy wine for their tables at dinner. Right now we have 21 cabins booked! I am even more excited about sailing away to Bermuda to get married!

It sounds like you had an excellent time. You got to see alot more than I would have thought with the time limit and all. I am happy that you got a glimpse of where your wedding is going to be but I am so jealous! I wish other cruise lines did that.

I can't wait to be back on this boat again! She really is in great shape for not been in dry dock yet. It's a shame she's not scheduled for it until after both of our weddings!
We're going to book our group for Portofino's for the night of our wedding and treat our guests. Hopefully we'll have enough points on our Royal Visa for it not to cost us anything! We're paying off like 9 people's cruises using it once they give us the cash, so we get double points!
