Welcome to the new dawn of cruising with Silversea SILVER DAWN – experienced by Leith!
The 10th and newest ship in the Silversea fleet has been named and officially launched. Ultimate luxury – March 2022 in Portugal.
When it comes to giving our clients expert advice, (particularly in this ‘new normal’) nothing beats first-hand experience. Especially when it comes to cruising.
As a member of the Silversea Cruises Advisory Board, Leith was invited to join the luxurious ‘Silver Dawn’ in Portugal. As a guest on the official maiden voyage and naming ceremony in Portugal, she was able to immerse herself in the ambience for a week. The importance of networking and attending business forums whilst onboard – priceless.
It truly does make a difference booking a cruise with some who knows the product – and the destination.
After this trip, Silver Dawn will continue on voyages ranging from 7 to 20 nights in the Mediterranean. Winter 2022 – Spring 2023 will see Silver Dawn in the Caribbean.
SILVER ENDEAVOUR – launched in November 2022
Silver Endeavour debuts as the world’s most advanced expedition ship. Sailing to both poles, Silversea Endeavour is the newest ship redefining the meaning of ultra-luxury expedition cruising. With PC6 ice-class rating, and state-of-the-art equipment and exploration technology this ship offers one of the most advanced expedition experiences ever.
Silver Endeavour will journey deep into to the Polar Regions, extending the season to unlock unprecedented access to 116 destinations in some of the most remote regions of the world. The new voyages will incorporate 24 maiden calls, including the rarely explored Canadian High Arctic, Hudson Bay, and the spectacular Ellesmere Island.
Silver Endeavour will spend summer 2023 exploring the British Isles, Iceland, and the Arctic—including Greenland, Svalbard, and the Canadian Arctic.
