Obviously make sure you have watched DS9, the best Star Trek (fight me!).
Star Trek: Enterprise is not bad like the internet would lead you to believe. I say watch it, and skip around if you find you don't like it. But if you watched all of Voyager, I think you will like all of Enterprise.
...But if you skip it... hmm. Chronologically and character-wise (other than movies) ST Picard seems like the next step. It kinda 'picks up' from where TNG and Voyager left off. Discovery and SNW are more standalone.
Of course I already watch Deep Space Nine, I'm following the order of Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and then Voyager.
Ah, right!
I'll also add that Enterprise is pretty 'standalone' too. It's not like how Voyager and DS9 directly continue TNG's politics/characters; you can go back and watch it later. You can watch other series without missing much from Enterprise.
If I were you, I'd watch Picard as "scenery change" to modern, high res, serial Star Trek, while all those characters and plots are still fresh. Call it a breather after your Voyager marathon, and a farewell VOY, DS9, and TNG, as it's basically built on Voyager and TNG lore.
Then I'd go back to classic, more episodic ST and watch Enterprise.
I dunno about movies, as I am not an expert on those (and which ones are good or not).
