Quick Jump to Cruise Line Overview

Carnival  Celebrity  Clipper  Costa  Crystal  Cunard  Delta Queen  Disney  Holland America  MSC  Norwegian  Oceania  Orient  Princess  Regent  Royal Caribbean  Seabourn  Silversea  Windjammer  Windstar 

Silversea’s watchcry is “Uncompromising Commitment to Service,” and the company has clearly shown that it belongs with the best of the ultra-luxury cruise market. Though not an inexpensive product on paper (no luxury cruise is!), the line’s all-inclusive pricing offers guests value for the money. Gratuities, port charges, and alcoholic beverages (including wine at lunch and dinner) are folded into the cost of the cruise. One complimentary shore excursion—known as the Silversea Experience—is provided on many of its voyages, and it invariably features something other than the run-of-the-mill tour onshore. On one such excursion, the Silversea Experience included a visit to an ancient castle where a produce fair was in progress and at which the mayor of the town greeted passengers in person. Not your basic city coach tour!

The line also offers an option for passengers called “Personalized Voyages.” In essence, the plan allows cruisers to choose their own embarkation/disembarkation ports, regardless of the cruise length and itineraries—meaning maximum flexibility for passengers.
