Silversea operates two fleets; first a classic fleet ranging from 296 to 728 guests, which travel well-honed world-wide itineraries, giving you the opportunity to return time and again, balancing the familiar style and welcome against the adventure of new destinations.

And secondly, they have an expedition fleet of intimate adventure ships, ranging from 100 to 274 passengers, which enable you to venture even further off the beaten track. Destinations include the polar regions, the Galapagos Islands and more, often accessible only by sea, with a team of experts who will make your exploration an exciting, informed and memorable experience.

Silversea brings you everything you might expect from the Best of the Best. Relaxed open seating dining enables you to eat when you like, and with whomever you choose, with a choice of restaurants and styles. All drinks are included in the fare, from champagne to fine wines and premium spirits, resulting in a laid-back house party style which facilitates blossoming friendships and attentive service. Gratuities are not expected, so service from your personal butler to that welcoming barman is at its most naturally gracious. And itineraries are extensive and wide-ranging, opening up all corners of the world to inquisitive travellers.

Accommodation is spacious, with some excellent high level suite options (the Silver Suite is our favourite), and a high percentage of verandahs. Excellent amenities and butler service enhance the comfort.

Silversea's recent acquisition by Royal Caribbean opens up all kinds of exciting possibilities. Two new classic ships, Silver Moon and Silver Dawn, launched in 2021 and 2022 respectively, to be followed by the larger, hybrid-powered Silver Nova in 2023, while Silver Origin recently replaced Silver Galapagos in the expedition fleet.
