There is a lot happening at Silversea Cruises. Actually, it would be better to say, “still happening!” The most notable – at least for me – is that Silversea has continued to expand into the luxury cruise behemoth. Since its acquisition by Royal Caribbean, Silversea has taken on three new ships: Silver Ray (just last
Silverseas’ Silver Nova is, in many ways, a next-generation cruise ship with many innovations, and, as a result, the guests are better dispersed, resulting in a wonderful sensation of space and privacy. There has been a lot of talk about Silver Nova’s asymmetrical design. It has resulted in what I believe is an extremely attractive
Silversea’s Silver Nova continued to impress both as a cruise ship and the delivery of a unique travel experience as we sailed down the western coast of South America from Lima, Peru, to Valparaiso, Chile. I have wanted to visit this part of the world for a long time. These ports are not easily visited
My cruise on Silversea’s Silver Nova has finally become a cruise! We thankfully departed Callao, Peru after two days there. The first thing I noticed is Silver Nova provides an exceptionally smooth cruising experience, even in two-to-three-meter swells. And I haven’t noticed any shaking when docking early in the morning or interfering with my cocktails upon
The time to finally board Silversea’s Silver Nova arrived! I survived a canceled flight, civil unrest (OK, actual riots), cancelation of ports, an additional flight, and an unanticipated four-night stay in Lima, Peru, so boarding the ship should be easy, right? Well…not exactly. The plan, seemingly OK with Silversea, was my boarding in Callao, Peru
My time awaiting Silversea’s Silver Nova’s arrival in Lima, Peru continued with – finally – a pretty lazy day after two days of chaos, replanning, and travel. One highlight was lunch at El Mercado, a trendy and Lima-chic restaurant where locals and tourists alike line up around 12:30 p.m. to grab a table if they
Silversea Cruises’ Silver Nova (and her soon-to-be-delivered sister, Silver Ray) is a game-changer in the classic cruise market. With her asymmetrical layout, extensive use of glass – focused on bringing the outside in – and modern design sets her apart from not only the rest of the Silversea fleet, but just about every other luxury
This, my seventh expedition to Antarctica, was definitely different from my previous ones. There are really two things that my Fly the Drake Passage experience set it apart and one can see them as, “Hey, this is perfect for me!” or “I want a longer and more immersive experience;” a very personal decision! (1) Flying across
This has been a very busy yet relatively short expedition in Antarctica. It, as always, leaves me with a desire – no, need – to return yet again. The sense of wonderment, enormity, beauty, power, calm, quiet, mind-blowing nature, inner peace, and so much more is just something I cannot get enough of. But before
This is the start of my seventh expedition to Antarctica; brought about by Silversea wanting me to have a “Fly the Drake” experience. Let’s just say my Antarctica “Fly the Drake” Expedition on Silversea’s Silver Endeavour truly started out as an expedition of its own! More importantly, it clearly shows how well Silversea handles things
