This is one of world’s most upmarket cruise brands, among the clutch of lines referred to as “six star” due to the unalloyed luxury they offer. Its ships sail to more than 900 destinations on all seven continents, which it claims is more than anyone else. This is largely down to the size of Silversea’s 12-strong fleet, including expedition ships that have been built to withstand the extreme conditions of the Polar regions.
They all share the stylish designs and feeling of space that come from the range of different suites, all with ocean views, and served by their own butlers who add all-important extra special touches. Whether you want breakfast served on your suite balcony, clothes neatly unpacked and folded away or reservations made for your favourite ship restaurants, your butler in on hand to help.
Wining and dining in style is an integral part of the Silversea experience with international cuisine served in its main restaurants, while an array of speciality venues include Italian flavours Il Terrazzino and La Terrazza, Asian in Indochine and Seishin, and French in La Dame.
Guests can choose to be pampered in the on-board fitness and wellness centres, offering a full range of health and beauty therapies, though the feeling of opulence is heightened by Silversea’s Otium wellness programme. Inspired by the philosophy of the Ancient Romans, which plays to the line’s Italian roots, this extends from the spa to encompass other luxurious flourishes in sleep, cuisine and bathing.
Silversea is for those who like to travel in the absolute lap of luxury, and like to do so surrounded by European influences. From its classic fleet, including game changing ships like Silver Nova and Silver Endeavor to its expedition fleet, which has meant that those travelling to destinations like Antarctica no longer need to do so on old research ships, but on some of the most lavish vessels on the planet.
From warm-water destinations like the Mediterranean and the Caribbean to the far reaches of the polar regions, Silversea offers voyage to pretty much every corner of the globe. That is due to the company essentially having two fleets with its classic and expedition ships.
Among the line’s extensive itineraries are a line-up of world cruises and grand voyages that include South America, Africa and the South Pacific.
