Silversea Cruises

Silversea Cruise Ship

In a Big World — The Enormous Advantage of Small

While most cruise ships keep getting bigger and bigger, there is something uniquely satisfying about Silversea’s smaller ships. The intimacy. The close-knit camaraderie. The excitement of exploring secluded, rarely seen harbours where true adventure lies. That is why Silversea Cruises continues to sail against the trends with intimate ships that offer not only a richly abundant and highly personalised onboard experience, but also a meaningful and life-enriching travel experience for their guests.

Along with landmark destinations, the Silversea cruise ships call at smaller harbours inaccessible to larger ships. And they can dock right in the heart of a city while mega-vessels must anchor off shore. Which means less tendering and more time for Silversea guests to go exploring.

Eastern & Western Mediterranean Cruises

An Insider’s Look at the World’s Favourite Playground

Like returning to one’s own hometown, Silversea’s experience and expertise allow you to explore Southern Europe as an insider. Aboard Silversea’s luxury Mediterranean cruises, you can browse the world’s best museums at your leisure during private after-hours openings, learn the secrets of traditional dishes in the kitchens of chefs who hold recipes handed down through generations, and savour amazing wines surrounded by their birthplace vineyards at tastings hosted by renowned vintners.

Join Silversea on a journey to the playgrounds of the world’s most legendary sea. Wind through the exquisite isles of the Aegean and explore the antiquity of the Peloponnese. Embark on Eastern Mediterranean cruises and sail to the Greek Isles, the Black Sea and Dalmatian coast jewels in Croatia and Montenegro. Or Western Mediterranean cruises that discover jet-set hideaways from the sun-soaked Iberian shores to golden Riviera beaches. The Mediterranean is an irresistible Silversea destination that keeps calling you back for more.

Northern Europe & Baltic Cruises

Trace the Outer Boundaries of the Continent

Silversea’s Northern Europe cruises offer a rich diversity of enriching experiences from visiting the royal capitals of Northern Europe to discovering places where few travellers have ever set foot. Sail along the coast of France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Visit Monet’s garden at Giverny and the glorious abbey of Mont-St Michel. Many Silversea Baltic cruises feature three full days to explore the tsarist treasures of St. Petersburg – glorious palaces, onion-domed cathedrals and the Hermitage Museum, with perhaps a day trip to Moscow.

This is a region of artistic masters from Rembrandt and Van Gogh to Mother Nature and her breathtaking canvases – magnificent Norwegian fjordlands, remote and wild Northern Scotland archipelagos, and the fire and brimstone spectacles of Iceland. With Silversea’s Northern Europe cruises and Baltic cruises, you can discover a Europe as richly varied as your interests.

Asia Cruises

Let the fabled islands of Indonesia embrace you with their exotic beauty. Silversea’s Asia cruises explore Vietnam – a seemingly endless patchwork of rice paddies, colourful markets and entrepreneurial energy. Cruises in Asia journey between ancient glories and modern-day miracles from Beijing with its Great Wall and Forbidden City to booming Shanghai … from Tokyo’s flashing neon lights to Nagasaki's beautiful bay … from high-tech Taiwan to Kyoto, cultural fountainhead of Classical Japan.

Africa, Arabia & Indian Ocean Cruises

Let Your Imagination Take Flight

Have you ever seen a thousand flamingos suddenly take flight? Espied the elusive leopard lazing in a baobab tree? Or watched a herd of gazelles race ahead of your jeep? Silversea cruises to Africa in luxurious style. From the private game reserves of Zululand to the verdant vineyards of the Western Cape, discover Africa vacations that thrill, delight, surprise and intrigue.

Dine in the Namib Desert under towering dunes and brilliant stars, or drift from eden to eden in the Seychelles. Join Silversea aboard Indian Ocean cruises sailing the Arabian Sea from Dubai to India to the oil-rich sheikdoms of the Gulf. Enter the Red Sea to discover great wonders of antiquity – Luxor’s tombs and temples, the pyramids at Giza. Follow the call of the wild and fascinating on these exhilarating Silversea sojourns.

Caribbean, Mexico & Panama Canal

Even Bermuda Sun, Sand and Serenity

Silversea’s luxury Caribbean cruises reveal an uncommon side of this popular destination. Palm-strewn hideaways like St. Kitts, “the island that tourism forgot” according to Travel + Leisure. And Grenada – uncrowded, unspoilt and seemingly untouched by time. Virgin Gorda is a yachting-crowd favourite with deserted beaches, coral reefs and little to do that isn’t utterly relaxing. These are the islands that Silversea’s Caribbean cruises sail to, the ones in the less-visited Lesser Antilles where big ships cannot go. 

Or make your tropical escape through the greatest shortcut on earth aboard Silversea’s Mexico cruises. These exciting Panama Canal itineraries feature the cloud forests of Costa Rica, the ancient Maya ruins of Guatemala, the marine playgrounds of the Mexican Riviera, and, of course, the engineering feet of the 20th century: the awesome Panama Canal. 

Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific

The Far Side of the World – Close Up

Silversea’s South Pacific cruises sweep across two hemispheres, two continents and a breathtaking succession of dazzling sights. New Zealand sets out to impress with its geysers and glaciers, sub-tropical rain forest and spectacular Lord of the Rings landscapes. In Australia you can wander from wonder to wonder: the Great Barrier Reef, the wildlife of Kangaroo Island, stunning Sydney Harbour….

Canada & New England Cruises

Fall Foliage Splendour Along America’s Colonial Coast

Treat yourself to autumn’s most magnificent show – New England and Canada’s maritime ports ablaze with the colours of fall. Silversea celebrates this seasonal splendour with a special harvest of New England cruises that travel along the North Atlantic’s rugged coast.

Silversea’s Canada cruises sail into the postcard-perfect settings of rustic fishing towns where you can get your fill of lobster bakes and salty tales. Watch for whales as you sail the Saint Lawrence Seaway. Experience the café lifestyle of Quebec’s distinct Francophone culture. Back across the border, explore Maine’s Acadia National Park, watching for timid wild deer in forests of peeling birch trees. Admire Newport’s “cottages” and walk the Freedom Trail in Boston. Silversea’s popular Canada and New England cruises are as multi-hued – and as short-lived – as the glorious fall foliage.

Transoceanic Cruises

Exotic Blue-Water Adventures

Stretch out life’s pleasures to the fullest. Silversea’s transoceanic cruises take a leisurely approach to travel with plenty of relaxing days at sea to fill as you wish, bookended by a host of exciting destinations on both sides of your crossing.

From Alaska, travel westward on a transoceanic cruise through the Aleutians to the gushing geysers of Kamchatka in Siberia and the steaming hot springs of Hokkaido in Japan. Take a slow transatlantic cruise from Lisbon to sun-drenched islands in the Canaries and Caribbean. Or hop across the pond on a not-so-classic transatlantic cruise between Southampton and New York, stopping off to kiss the Blarney Stone and to explore Nova Scotia’s rugged shores. Then there’s paradise itself, a vast transpacific cruise to the jade peaks and blue lagoons of French Polynesia.
