Silversea Cruises
At Boutique Travel Advisors, we hold Silversea Cruises in the highest regard, cherishing its unparalleled approach to sea travel that blends luxury, adventure, and cultural immersion. Silversea Cruises redefines ocean voyages with its exquisite fleet of ships, each designed to offer an intimate and lavish experience. From the moment you step aboard, you are enveloped in a world of sophisticated elegance and unparalleled comfort.
Silversea takes cruising to extraordinary heights with its bespoke excursions that promise authentic encounters with local cultures and breathtaking natural landscapes. The dining experiences aboard Silversea are nothing short of spectacular, featuring gourmet cuisine that mirrors the culinary traditions of the regions visited. The onboard lifestyle is tailored to those who seek an enriching, yet relaxing atmosphere, with plenty of opportunities for personal indulgence and social interaction.
What Makes Silversea a Standout?
All-Inclusive Luxury
Silversea Cruises epitomizes all-inclusive luxury, offering guests a seamless and stress-free experience. Fares typically include gourmet dining options, sophisticated beverages, including fine wines and spirits, gratuities, and an array of in-suite amenities. This level of inclusivity extends to transportation services such as complimentary shuttle buses in port cities and, on some voyages, even includes airfare and pre-cruise hotel stays.
Ultra-Luxury Ships
The Silversea fleet comprises smaller, more intimate ships compared to larger cruise liners, which allows for access to lesser-known, more secluded ports that bigger ships cannot reach. This smaller scale does not compromise on luxury but enhances it, offering more personalized service with a high crew-to-guest ratio, ensuring that every guest receives the utmost attention and service.
Expedition Cruising
Beyond traditional cruising, Silversea also offers expedition cruises that are perfect for the adventurous traveler looking to explore remote destinations. These cruises are equipped with expert guides such as naturalists, geologists, biologists, historians, and ornithologists who provide in-depth knowledge about the destinations’ ecosystems and cultures. The expedition ships are equipped with Zodiac boats and other equipment necessary for exploring off-the-beaten-path locales, from the polar regions to the tropical rainforests.
SILVERSEA’S STANDOUT VESSELS
Silver Moon
Silver Moon, launched in 2020, is a sister ship to Silver Muse but brings an elevated level of luxury. What makes this ship stand out is its S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste) program, which offers an immersive culinary experience. Travelers can enjoy regionally inspired dishes, participate in cooking classes, and take guided shore excursions focused on local food culture. The spacious all-suite accommodations, with nearly every suite offering a private veranda, ensure ultimate comfort and luxury. Silver Moon’s commitment to personalized service is also exceptional, with nearly one crew member per guest.
Silver Dawn
Silver Dawn, launched in 2021, blends traditional Silversea elegance with modern innovations. It introduces OTIVM, a unique wellness concept that redefines relaxation and luxury. OTIVM integrates wellness into the entire cruising experience, from in-suite spa treatments to indulgent poolside pampering and specially curated dining menus. The ship also mirrors the S.A.L.T. culinary program found on Silver Moon, further enhancing the guest experience with regionally focused cuisine and experiences. Silver Dawn offers a range of spacious suites, all serviced by a dedicated butler, ensuring a highly personalized and luxurious stay.
Silver Nova
Silver Nova, one of Silversea’s newest ships, takes a revolutionary approach to cruising with its focus on sustainability. This ship is designed to reduce emissions, using hybrid technology that allows it to operate in port using fuel cells. It also introduces an asymmetrical design, which allows for an innovative layout with wider public spaces and enhanced outdoor areas, offering spectacular panoramic views. Nova’s luxurious suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows, and the ship provides a next-level indulgence in wellness, dining, and personalized service, making it a standout for those seeking cutting-edge luxury travel.
Silver Wind
Silver Wind is one of Silversea’s most intimate ships, known for its small-ship charm and polar exploration capability. Recently refurbished to become an ice-class ship, Silver Wind is now able to offer luxury cruises in polar regions, blending expedition-style experiences with Silversea’s renowned elegance. Its smaller size means it can access more remote and exclusive ports, giving travelers a more intimate and immersive journey. With all-suite accommodations, gourmet dining, and personalized butler service, Silver Wind delivers luxury in both traditional and adventurous destinations, making it perfect for those seeking unique itineraries.
The S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste) program, exclusive to select Silversea ships, offers guests a truly immersive culinary journey that goes beyond traditional dining. This unique program is designed to connect travelers with the rich food cultures of the destinations they visit, making the cruise experience even more enriching. Through S.A.L.T. Kitchen, guests enjoy regionally inspired dishes that highlight local ingredients and culinary traditions, transforming each meal into a deeper connection with the places on their itinerary.
But S.A.L.T. is much more than just onboard dining. It features the S.A.L.T. Lab, where guests can take part in hands-on cooking classes, learning how to prepare authentic dishes from local chefs and experts. Travelers can also participate in S.A.L.T. Experiences, curated shore excursions focused on exploring local markets, visiting farms, and enjoying meals at family-owned restaurants. This integration of onboard and onshore experiences allows for a richer, more personal understanding of a region’s culinary heritage, making it one of Silversea’s most innovative and culturally enriching programs. Whether you’re passionate about food or simply looking for a deeper connection to your destinations, S.A.L.T. offers a sensory adventure that transforms your journey into something unforgettable.

Silversea’s dedication shines especially bright as they partner with us for the upcoming PTSD NOW! event in November, a cause close to our hearts.

Through both financial contributions and active involvement, Silversea is committed to creating meaningful change, aligning their values with ours to serve and uplift the community.

WHY SET SAIL WITH SILVERSEAS?
Silversea’s blend of luxury, contemporary design, and a healthy, active lifestyle truly sets them apart.
With newer ships and innovative yacht expedition options, Silversea elevates your journey to breathtaking destinations. While typically geared toward adults, select itineraries—like those in Alaska—welcome well-supervised teens and children, making it a great choice for families.
What I appreciate most is Silversea’s focus on personal engagement. Guests can explore at their own pace, with social options for those who wish to connect and mingle with other guests. Plus, while Silversea offers fantastic port excursions, I encourage curating private experiences with the expert assistance of BTA for a more personalized touch especially if the port excursion you like is sold out.
Silversea isn’t just a cruise; it’s an unforgettable journey that invites travelers to discover the world in style
