Silverseas fleet of ultra-luxury, all-inclusive ships has recently returned to its worldwandering ways.
They are once again carrying discerning travellers to near and far corners of the planet.
Unlocking the secrets of some 900 destinations and countless cultures. Treating adventurous palates
to exquisite cuisine. And satisfying guests’ deep-seated cravings for authentic discovery.
The nimble fleet and dedicated staff deliver a level of adventurous, all-inclusive luxury unrivalled in its
generosity, quality, and creative innovation. No other line offers the ability to curate your travels to such
personalised detail as Silversea, yet none match the core value of our offerings – or the peace of mind and
comfort.
Whether your next travel dream leads you to the balmy Caribbean, exotic South America, the South Pacific
and land Down Under, or the polar wonderland of Antarctica, you’ll find tempting itineraries on Silversea.
But demand is on the rise, and fares will soon follow.
Silversea Cruises is set to take you deeper into the world than ever. We’ve worked hard to
enrich every aspect of our offering with your experience in mind. We’ve launched three
new ships – Silver Origin, Silver Moon, and Silver Dawn – for your comfort, we’ve extended
our luxurious service from door to door for your convenience, and we’ve enhanced the
hallmarks of luxury that make a Silversea cruise so distinctive, so memorable.
From that first welcome aboard to the final champagne toast goodbye,
your Silversea journey is designed to unfold with matchless perfection.
Often unseen yet always seamless, our extraordinary level of personalised
service leaves you free to more fully experience the joy of ocean travel.
Making your voyage unforgettable means not only taking you to the most beautiful and
remote destinations and experiences on the planet, but doing so in superlative comfort
and elegance: butler service, included shore excursions, multiple restaurants and in-suite
dining, and more. Our enhanced all-inclusive offering means you’ll want for nothing as
you travel deeper into the authentic beauty of the world.
Enjoy one of the highest space-per-guest ratios at sea, with finely appointed
suites featuring expansive ocean views and indulgent amenities. And, speaking
of indulgence, your butler will be happy to see to everything from unpacking
luggage to serving breakfast on your private veranda, handling laundry
requests, shining your shoes, and more.
With ships ranging in size from 51 to 364 suites, Silversea guests can find their
ideal balance between grandeur and intimacy. The modest scale of our ships
allows us to sail directly into the heart of the world’s most prominent cities,
and reach scores of tiny dots on the map that larger ships aren’t able to access.
Beyond the sundry luxuries to be savoured whilst on board, proper travel is
about experiencing the destinations themselves. With that as our guiding
principle, we include all shore excursions on Expedition voyages, while our
Classic voyages include one shore excursion per port per day – your choice
from a diverse range of options
The world is a vast place, yet few of its destinations are unfamiliar to Silversea.
We’re equally at home cruising the idyllic waters of the Caribbean as we are
navigating the icy realms of Antarctica. Whether travelling deep into the Amazon,
on expedition in Australia’s Kimberley, or enjoying a leisure sail through tiny
South Pacific Isles, we’re proud to translate our deep local knowledge worldwide
into authentically inspiring voyages.
Step away from the shallow and everyday – and into the depth and breadth of
discovery, Silversea style. Enjoy privileged access to sites both renowned and
undiscovered. And take advantage of our comprehensive programme of expertled, small-group shore excursions designed to put you in the know, everywhere.
The pages that follow present destination-rich itineraries of varying lengths,
with multiple overnights and extended stays with time to explore exactly as you
wish. Pre- and post-cruise programmes invite even deeper discovery. It’s enough
temptation to make choosing a bit difficult – but that’s a good problem to have,
and we’d be happy to help you solve it.
We exist to unlock deeper travel experiences – allowing our guests to become immersed
in the authentic beauty of their destinations. Our 2023/24 voyages hold a wealth of rare,
personalised and unforgettable opportunities to see your world as never before.
Our ships are designed to give space to fewer, select travellers. Big on creature comforts
and luxuries. Small enough to be personal and convivial – our ships range in size from
51 to 304 suites to ensure you find your perfect home from home.
We believe our multi-award-winning itineraries are the best in the world. And when we
say the world, we mean it. In 2023/2024 our guests will visit over 900 destinations across
all seven continents – from iconic cities to remote islands, from the tropical equator to the
polar extremes, including over 60 maiden calls.
With nearly one member of staff for every guest, and a butler serving every suite, our
service is legendary. Your devoted, discreet and experienced Silversea onboard team take
pride in playing a key role in your complete enjoyment of your journey.
Our gourmet excellence will always be a jewel in our crown. Our newest ships also offer
destination-focused restaurants, bars and hands-on experiences – allowing you to enrich
your travels with deep-dives into local culinary flavours, heritage and techniques.

pioneering Silver Nova. Our all-inclusive offering is unrivalled with your choice of

Our Antarctica Bridge programme flies you from Punta Arenas straight to King George Island, a mere two-hour sail from the Peninsula. There, board the ship and spend your expedition days fully immersed in Antarctica’s otherworldly wonders.
