Silversea Cruises: Top 14 Things to Know
Looking for Information About Silversea Cruises? Here Are the Top 14 Things to Know.
We held a Silversea Cruises informational evening for over 100 people in Scottsdale, Arizona a few nights ago.
Our presentation was divided into two distinct categories: classic luxury ocean cruising and expedition cruising.
Carol and I sailed Alaska with Silversea Cruises a while back on the Silver Shadow which gloriously held only 388 passengers.
This was our first small-ship sailing experience. And, after experiencing the small-ship difference, we were hooked. No more big-ship cruises for these roaming boomers.
If you’re not familiar with Silversea Cruises, take a peek at some of the information we learned last night:

And, if you prefer to avoid a formal evening, you can simply choose to dine in one of the alternative restaurants during the formal evening. There are no formal evenings on the expedition voyages.
- Silversea currently offers 474 voyages with 119 of them featuring our complimentary Virtuoso Voyages VIP experiences.
Can you imagine a world where the only meat we had to experience was chicken?
Now, don’t get me wrong, I like chicken. However, isn’t the world a little nicer place to live when we also have lobster, filet mignon, lamb, fish, and many other flavors of meat?
So too is the cruise industry.
There are a number of flavors to experience in the world of luxury cruising. We recommend that you experience the flavor of Silversea Cruises.
You will like it. We did! 🙂
