They operate a fleet of six beautiful ships ranging in size from the 132 passenger expedition ship, Prince Albert II to the new 540 passenger flagship, Silver Spirit. Silversea takes pride in one of the highest space per guest ratios of any cruise line, a factor cited by many of their returning guests as one of their reasons for choosing Silversea.

On board, there is plenty to occupy you during a Silversea cruise.

You may also arrange a customised shore visit with the help of Silversea’s knowledgeable concierges. There are various dining choices on board a Silversea ship, from modern French dining in The Restaurant to 24-hour Room Service. The restaurant also offers ‘CruiseLite’ and Low Carb menus for those who are health conscious or watching their weight. Evening entertainment ranges from al fresco moonlight movies on deck to music and dancing, shows or games of chance in the Casino. For those wanting a quiet night, the Champagne Room offers an intimate, space where you can enjoy fine wines, Cuban cigars and mature Port and Cognac.

For the gourmet traveller, Silversea offers a series of food and wine themed cruises.
