We’re thrilled to announce the summer 2025 launch by one of our favourite cruise lines, Silversea. With 409 destinations in 60 countries, including 24 places it’s never visited before, Silversea take you to the soul of each region through enriching shore experiences, while treating you to your own butler and the finest dining aboard its intimate luxury ships.
Alaska
Immersive excursions to get you under the skin of this wild region of giant glaciers and grizzly bears include wilderness kayaking, fishing and crabbing at Bostwick Bay, hiking in Gold Creek Valley, and learning about the Gold Rush history.
You sail aboard Silver Moon or Silver Nova, on a 7 to 14-day itinerary taking you to classic destinations, fishing towns, and fjords inaccessible to larger ships, with ocean-view suites giving a deep sense of connection with surrounding nature.
The Arctic and Greenland
With charter flights and both pre and post-land programmes included, these deep dives into a region of fragile beauty include such one-in-a-lifetime experiences as Zodiac rides beside beluga whales, meeting with local communities, and exploring ruined early settlements.
The trips are accompanied by experts in marine biology, geology, and history, so you can make the most of your time. New destinations here for Silversea’s nimble ice class ships are Arnarfjorur and Leopold Island.
Canada and New England
One of this region’s most intimate luxury ships, Silver Shadow is the perfect way to seek out its secrets. Sailing up Quebec’s Saguenay River, taking in rugged coastlines and craggy seaside towns during the autumn, and discovering iconic cities including Halifax and Boston.
You’ll benefit from all-inclusive flights as well as unique shore excursions, discovering everything from colonial architecture to Annapolis Valley vineyards.
The Galapagos
Silversea’s new ports of call in these remote islands, whose endemic species led to Darwin’s ground-breaking theory of evolution, include Isla de Lobos, San Cristobal, and Bahia Bowditch.
Silver Origin is packed with creature comforts, but your main focus on these safaris at sea (with flights and pre and post-land programmes included) is exploring with Silversea’s team of experts: bird watching, paddleboarding, exploring coastal trails, snorkelling near sea lions, and so much more.
Kimberley
This all-inclusive adventure is led mainly by Australian-born experts, while Silver Cloud itself has a higher staff-to-guest ratio than any other ultra-luxury cruise. Plus one Zodiac boat for every nine travellers – allowing you to experience to the maximum this vast, primordial region of offshore island.
Encountering rare wildlife and authentic Aboriginal culture as you venture to semi-submerged worlds on Montgomery Reef, spotting lurking crocodiles along the mangroves of the Hunter River, and visiting spiritual rock formations are just some of the amazing experiences in store.
The Mediterranean
Silversea’s decades of expertise in this region make it the perfect choice to see the real Med, with its ships reaching places others can’t, including the lesser-known destinations of Milos, Siracusa, and Tarragona.
You also take in must-see cities such as Rome, Dubrovnik, and Monte Carlo, and savour private Michelin-starred meals and insider experiences by local chefs.
Northern Europe and the British Isles
Silversea has explored northern Europe for decades so it can offer transformative itineraries as well as personalised indulgences aboard Silver Shadow and Silver Dawn.
You’ll see natural wonders including fjords and glaciers, rarely visited harbours such as Mariehamn in the Finnish Åland Islands, and landmark cities from Oslo to Lisbon. Choosing from unforgettable experiences including hiking Norway’s Mount Aksla and gin tasting in Ireland.
Grand Voyages
Silversea’s extended voyages add overnight stays in iconic old cities and even more special events and curated experiences, from art visits to immersive cuisine. They include the Grand North Atlantic & Northern Europe cruise, an 83-day epic taking in 55 destinations in 16 countries.
