On Webpage,

There are so many texts with same name

You can use Python slice feature, get the last two Explore, and get the only Explore if there is only one Explore

eles = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//*[contains(., 'Explore')]")

for ele in eles[-2:]:
  ele.click()

Try select this element by CSS - Selector for example if your 'EXPLORE' element is a paragraph:

locator = (By.CSS_SELECTOR,'p *:last-child')

# Alternative 
# locator = (By.CSS_SELECTOR,'p:last-child')

# Alternative
# locator = (By.XPATH,"//p[contains(text(),'Explore')][last()]")

def click_button(self, *locator):
   button = self.driver.find_element(*locator)
   button.click()

If you would like click pre-last element :

locator = (By.CSS_SELECTOR,'p:nth-last-child(2)')

I hope it will be helpfull.
