Silversea Cruises is recognized as the defining luxury cruise experience. In the early 1990s, the Lefebvre family conceived and organized this unique, luxury cruise line, pledging to build and operate the highest quality ships in the ultra-luxury segment and to offer a product unlike any other. Silversea launched its first ship in 1994, thus creating a new niche for the ultra-luxury travel market with a class of smaller, purpose-built vessels that could slip into more exotic ports off the beaten path.
In 2013, there will be over 200 voyages visiting more than 450 destinations on 7 continents. Program highlights include a 115-day World Cruise on the Silver Whisper, a Silver Spirit Hawaii cruise and Silver Explorer's new expedition cruises to Canada's beautiful Hudson Bay. There are also 32 new ports including Soller de Majorca, Spain; Port Arthur, Australia; Chios, Greece and Fukuoka, Japan.
Silversea also announced their World Cruise for 2014. The Silver Whisper will offer a 113 voyage stopping in 54 ports in 29 countries beginning in Los Angeles and ending in Barcelona.

In a Big World — The Enormous Advantage of Small
While most cruise ships keep getting bigger and bigger, there is something uniquely satisfying about Silversea's smaller ships. The intimacy. The close-knit camaraderie. The excitement of exploring secluded, rarely seen harbors where true adventure lies. That is why Silversea Cruises continues to sail against the trends with intimate ships that offer not only a richly abundant and highly personalized onboard experience, but also a meaningful and life-enriching travel experience for their guests.
Along with landmark destinations, the Silversea cruise ships call at smaller harbors inaccessible to larger ships. And they can dock right in the heart of a city while mega-vessels must anchor off shore. Which means less tendering and more time for Silversea guests to explore.
These elite and intimate ships are specifically designed for fewer guests, featuring more space and the highest levels of personalized service. Accommodations are amongst the largest at sea; all have ocean views and butler service and most feature private verandas.
Dining is an exquisite affair with open-seating options so guests dine when, where and with whom they desire. But what is also unique is that although the ships are intimate, they incorporate amenities usually found only on larger ships, such as an elaborate show lounge featuring nightly entertainment, casino, and state-of-the-art spa and fitness facilities. As an innovator in the ultra-luxury cruise segment with all-inclusive pricing and an unmatched onboard lifestyle, Silversea is the preferred luxury cruise line among modern affluent travelers from across the globe – providing for a convivial cosmopolitan ambience and yet another unique Silversea distinction.
