The Shore Explorer will visit Osaka in Japan, Dubai, Norway, and many other countries. Each visit will include an exciting activity that the cruise line offers to passengers – think the world’s longest zipline and white water rafting, for a start. Being some of the first guests to visit the Royal Caribbean’s new private island is also part of the itinerary.

Instagram has become a huge social media platform for promoting businesses of all types. Being able to create adverts, sponsored content and commissioning influential accounts to promote a brand through such an easy platform has become an increasingly popular way to create brand awareness. Managing director of Royal Caribbean International UK and Ireland, Ben Boulding, said, ‘With Instagram it’s not just a content platform anymore, but an area of inspiration and influence, especially for the next generation of travellers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime role.’
