Arrive in Style with Silversea — The Award-Winning Luxury Cruise Line

Most luxury brands began in Europe, and even today Italy is universally acknowledged as the world-center of style, design, and that intangible allure called la dolce vita. There are the world’s leading fashion designers from Armani to Ferragamo, the temptations of la cucina Italiana, the Chiantis and Brunellos of Tuscany. And in the ultra-luxury travel market — there’s the polished perfection of Silversea. Onboard, the style is inspired by the golden age of cruising. Decorative Art Deco design elements lend a sophisticated 1930’s ambiance to this luxury cruise line. From the ceiling lights in Le Champagne and the sky-lit main staircase, to the innovative Stars Supper Club aboard Silver Spirit, Silversea guests sail the world surrounded by a provocative blend of modern elegance and timeless glamour — the sensations of history’s most romantic travel era.

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 harbors 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 personalized 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 harbors 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.

 

A Most Alluring Lifestyle

Step on board a Silversea luxury cruise ship and sense how time pauses – letting you breathe. Now imagine a schedule free to fill with all that is close to your heart, a world of earthly delights at your fingertips and a crew dedicated to your every whim. Each new day presents a personal canvas to fill with broad brush strokes of bright possibilities.

Inspired by each moment of unexpected bliss, share your prevailing sense of good fortune with like-minded, fellow guests, those new-found friends from across the globe who share your love of travel.

Then decide to join the daily happenings or decide to do nothing at all. Distinct among luxury cruise lines, Silversea personalizes a variety of “big-ship” activities with small-ship ambiance for an onboard experience as diverse and unique as you.

A Tribute to Your Great Taste

With the importance of food in Italian culture, you would expect dining to be a high priority at Silversea. And it most assuredly is. Moreover, gastronomic excellence is a given thanks to Silversea’s partnership with the prestigious Grands Chefs Relais & Châteaux. No matter where you dine, their influence is readily apparent in the great diversity and presentation of your selections.

Silversea offers a choice of dining venues, even aboard their smallest ships, and as many as six restaurants on Silver Spirit — remarkable for a ship of her size. The main dining room aboard every ship, The Restaurant, is always open seating so you can arrive at your leisure and dine with the friends you invite to join your table. And with the worldly crowd of international guests who sail on Silversea ships, socializing is yet another great advantage of the Silversea experience.

Enhance Your Cruise. Enrich Your Life.

Whether your interests lean toward history and culture or you love the great outdoors, enrichment is a fundamental component of every Silversea voyage. The Silver Perspectives programm includes lectures, informal talks and demonstrations to enrich your understanding of the lands you visit, and the people who live there. Discover fascinating aspects of the local lifestyle – past and present – as celebrated guest speakers, noted historians, celebrity chefs, bestselling authors, destination consultants and world affairs experts share their special insights into areas of the world they know intimately.

The Day Belongs to You

Ahh … those heavenly days at sea, when time, at last, is finally on your side. Especially when there are so many stimulating activities to discover on board.

Silversea offers an enrichment program of the highest caliber. There are wine tastings and cooking demonstrations so that you can savor the flavors of the lands you visit. Take a dance class. Sit in on a lecture by an eminent guest speaker. Watch a wine video customized for your destination. Or devote your time to more active pursuits — jogging, swimming or an exercise class at the Fitness Centre. Or perhaps you prefer shopping in the boutique, indulging in a massage, or soaking in a warm whirlpool. The choices are many and they’re all yours.

An Ocean Of Options

The ocean views and soothing sound of the surf can be quite intoxicating at sea, so it’s not surprising that daydreaming on deck is one of the most popular pastimes. However, every Silversea ship also offers a considerable number of more active pursuits — some for the body, some for the mind … and some just for fun.
