Silversea’s
all-inclusive ultra luxury vacations appeal to discriminating travelers
accustomed to plush accommodations and attentive, individual service.
The line is distinguished
by its all-suite ships, impeccable service and all-inclusive fares
featuring: all outside suites (80 percent with private verandas);
round-trip airfare; pre-cruise deluxe hotel stay; beverages, including
select wines and spirits; all gratuities; transfers, porterage and port
charges; and a special shoreside event on select voyages.
Silversea's tradition of
excellence began with Silver Cloud and Silver Wind, each carrying only 296
pampered guests. In September 2000 the Silver Shadow, slightly larger and
accommodating 382 guests, joined the fleet, followed by an identical
sister, Silver Whisper, in July 2001. Each offers 191 ocean-view suites
and boast many new amenities including the expanded Spa and Fitness Center
(62 percent larger), Computer Center, comprehensive Conference Center,
Cigar Club and Wine Bar.
The ships of Silversea
navigate the waters of the globe in style, offering over 120 very
different voyages to six continents. The intimate size of the ships means
you can cruise to the world's most scenic harbors where larger vessels
cannot go.
