Just like you, we love pushing boundaries. From the Arctic to Antarctica, our Expedition voyages challenge your senses and show you the world up close, in all its vivid, glorious detail. Our all-suite, all-inclusive ultra-luxury Expedition ships were built to take you to places few people ever see, and we’re going even further in 2021-22. We’re introducing the first Expedition World Cruise in history, crossing 21 oceans and seas to visit 107 destinations in 30 countries, and the world’s first ultra-luxury fly-cruise to Antarctica. We’ve also expanded your experience of the Galapagos with new itineraries and destinations and are launching our first cruise ever to cross the Antarctic Polar Circle, reaching all the way to latitude 69°S. Whichever you choose, you’ll beat the cutting edge of travel. Find out more about each destination below.
Galapagos
Silver Origin
In order to celebrate Silver Origin joining our fleet, we have decided to really push the boat out! We have revised our North Central and Western itineraries so now they both feature the diverse islands of Fernandina and Isabela, consistently listed among the must-visit islands in the Galapagos. The 68 new voyages will feature five new sites, and will focus on providing guests with deeper, more immersive encounters with the strange and wonderful wildlife of the islands.
Antarctica
Silver Cloud, Silver Explorer, Silver Wind
We are excited to announce three major innovations for the next season of Antarctic sailings. Our first Deep South Expedition will be a 20-day in-depth exploration of Antarctica, sailing past 69˚ S, our lowest ever latitude. We are also thrilled to introduce Antarctica Bridge. These ultra-luxury fly-cruise sailings to Antarctica are the first of their kind in the industry and will offer guests the opportunity of flying over the Drake Passage and sailing straight into the heart of the Peninsula. Finally, Silver Wind will undergo an ice-class conversion, offering more choice than ever before in the White Continent.
Expedition World Cruise
Silver Cloud
Proving that Silversea breaks the ice in more ways than one, Silver Cloud will host on our first Expedition World Cruise in early 2022. Postponed from 2021, the ground breaking World Cruise will sail pole to pole, covering 107 destinations, 30 countries, 21 oceans and seas in 167 days. Lucky guests can not only expect to experience the very best of each country, but also a plethora of extraordinary events and educational lectures. If you have ever truly wanted to experience the authentic beauty of the world, then the Expedition World Cruise is the way to do it.
Grand Arctic Expedition
Silver Cloud
Silver Cloud will welcome intrepid explorers in July 2021 aboard our first ever Grand Arctic Voyage. Sailing from Tromso to Nome (Alaska) in 64 days, the unprecedented journey takes in some of the world’s least travelled routes, including the mythic Northwest Passage. Take advantage of the brief summer thaw and experience a pristine region at the top of the world where nature rules the roost. Zodiac cruises, exclusive events, superb speakers and supreme comfort guaranteed.
