Silversea Unveils Remarkable Details of Pioneering 7-Continent World Cruise 2020 SILVERSEA UNVEILS REMARKABLE DETAILS OF PIONEERING 7-CONTINENT WORLD CRUISE 2020 (Monaco -- September 14, 2018) Silversea releases remarkable details about its world-first, 7-continent World Cruise 2020. The leading ultra-luxury cruise line will enrich its pioneering 62-port itinerary with a selection of once-in-a-lifetime events, shore-side excursions and expedition-style embellishments. Over 140 days, Silversea’s Silver Whisper will take guests closer to the authentic beauty of the world, unlocking unique experiences in the most spectacular destinations between Fort Lauderdale and Amsterdam. Pushing the boundaries of ultra-luxury cruising, Silversea’s World Cruise 2020 will be the first time guests will be able to step foot on all seven continents on a world cruise. In 2020, the groundbreaking voyage will incorporate many ‘soft expedition’ features, including an extraordinary 3-day Antarctic experience, in which guests may well witness penguins, seals, whales, and other wildlife in its natural habitat. Led by a team of nine qualified specialists – including marine biologists, a geologist, a naturalist, an ornithologist, a glaciologist, and more – Silversea’s guests will explore the final continent on Zodiac excursions, landing for shore-side adventures, before learning more about this spectacular region through onboard lectures and workshops from industry-leading experts. Likewise, guests will unlock a special range of immersive travel experiences in the South Pacific, accompanied by a team of nine expedition experts. One standout destination on the itinerary is the notoriously hard-to-reach Pitcairn Island, which harks tales of HMS Bounty and the mutineers from the 18th century. Another highlight will be Pentecost Island, where Silversea’s guests will witness the famous land diving ritual, performed by locals to celebrate the yam harvest. On Champagne Beach in Vanuatu, guests will enjoy a local festival which will showcase an exclusively performed water dance, in which traditionally-adorned locals beat the water’s surface as part of a breathtaking ritual. In addition to the previously mentioned cultural experiences, Silversea’s World Cruise 2020 guests – referred to as Legends of Cruising – will enjoy exclusive access to a series of bespoke events across the world. Miami/Fort Lauderdale – Welcome Event – January 5, 2020 Silversea’s guests will enjoy a warm welcome and a send-off to remember at a luxury hotel. The evening function will enable guests to socialize, as anticipation builds to a climax ahead of the journey of a lifetime. Buenos Aires – Tango Evening with Dinner at El Zanjon – January 26, 2020 Evoking the sense of romance that pervaded Buenos Aires in the 1930s, guests will be transported back in time at the spectacular El Zanjon – dubbed ‘the most important urban archaeology project in the city’ - in the Argentinian capital. A collection of vintage cars will transport guests to and from the venue in style. Themed black and white, the private event will include an authentic dinner with a selection of wines, a tango show with an aerial display, and a range of other curated embellishments. Fremantle, Perth – The Quarry Rocks with Fremantle Perth Symphony – March 28, 2020 A magical evening awaits Silversea’s World Cruises in Fremantle, Perth, as the Perth Symphony Orchestra will indulge guests’ senses at the magnificent Quarry Amphitheatre. Served local produce and fine champagne in sumptuous picnic hampers, guests will admire a panoramic view of the city’s skyline from Perth’s premier outdoor venue. Leith, Edinburgh – Farewell Dinner – May 22, 2020. One of Edinburgh’s most majestic venues, Mansfield Traquair is a natural choice for the World Cruise’s farewell dinner. More than unique, this sophisticated occasion will be entirely tailored for an unforgettable experience: guests will dine on fine cuisine in grand surrounds, under colourful, vaulted ceilings and exquisite murals. Known to some as “Edinburgh’s Sistine Chapel,” Mansfield Traquair will be a fittingly magnificent venue in which to round off the series of shore-side enrichments. “Our World Cruise 2020 will be quite unlike any world cruise that has ever set sail,” says Conrad Combrink, Silversea’s SVP Strategic Development Expeditions and Experiences. “Our guests will enjoy an enhanced, luxurious onboard experience, which will leave them in want of nothing, as well as a seemingly unending range of unforgettable experiences, as they get closer to the authentic beauty of 62 spectacular destinations around the world.” Operated by Silversea’s guides and a new addition to Silver Whisper especially for the World Cruise 2020, a fleet of eight Zodiacs will enable guests to discover remote destinations and unique cultures throughout the 62-port voyage, complementing the luxuriousness of the ship with a true sense expedition. In December 2018, Silver Whisper will undergo an extensive refurbishment to ensure guests enjoy Silversea’s trademark level of comfort while aboard. Inspired by the décor of the cruise line’s flagship, Silver Muse, Silver Whisper will be enhanced as part of a fleet-wide Musification. Both indoors and out, the ship’s public spaces will be invigorated extensively, while all suites will also be upgraded. The planned refurbishment of Silver Whisper is being amplified following Silversea’s recent partnership with Royal Caribbean, with more of the ship’s spaces being upgraded. Renovations of La Terrazza, the Main Bar, the Zagara Spa, the card/conference room, corridors, public bathrooms, and the ship’s top suites, among various other spaces, will receive additional improvements as a result of Project Invictus – a long-term initiative to take Silversea’s ultra-luxury offering to the next level. “On a refurbished Silver Whisper and with access to a new fleet of Zodiac craft, guests will travel deeper on all seven continents,” says Andrea Zito, Silversea’s SVP Tech Ops & Crewing. “Each aspect of the renovation will be tailored with guests’ enjoyment in mind. From the scents and music that accentuate each space to the choice of films offered in suites, the attention to detail will ensure a truly unique onboard experience.” While fares for the World Cruise 2020 begin from $62,000 per guest, Silver Whisper’s most expensive suites will accommodate guests in ultimate comfort for $250,000 per guest, constituting the most expensive cruise experience ever. Included in the price are round-trip business air travel, $4,000 onboard spending money per suite, unlimited Wi- Fi, an expedition parka, laundry and medical services, and visa packages for guests of select nationalities, among other alluring amenities.

  • Backgrounder
    BACKGROUNDER Silversea is a luxury cruise company reflec3ng genera3ons of mari3me and travel experience. In the early 1990s, the Lefebvre family of Rome, former owners of Sitmar Cruises, conceived and organised a unique cruise company pledging to build and operate the highest quality ships in the ultra-luxury segment. The name "Silversea" was chosen because it connotes quality and luxury as well as capturing the romance and special sensa3ons of the sea. Silversea launched its first ship, Silver Cloud, in 1994, followed by Silver Wind in 1995, Silver Shadow in 2000, and Silver Whisper in 2001. The fleet was purpose-built for the ultra-luxury market, establishing a new class of smaller, in3mate vessels that could slip into more exo3c ports off the beaten path. These elite vessels were specifically designed for fewer guests, with more space and the highest levels of personalised service, delivered by mainly Italian and other European officers overseeing an interna3onal staff. In December 2009 Silversea took delivery of its next genera3on of ultra-luxury vessel, Silver Spirit. At 36,000 grosse tonnes (gr)t, and accommoda3ng just 540 guests, this in3mate ship has spacious suites— with 95% featuring a private veranda—and one of the highest space-to-guest ra3os at sea today. The onboard decor lends a sophis3cated 1930s Art Deco ambience to the public spaces, highlights of which include an indoor/outdoor spa measuring over 8,300 square feet (770 square metres), a resort-style pool, four whirlpools, and a choice of six dining venues including Seishin, showcasing Asian-fusion cuisine, and the innova3ve Stars Supper Club, offering trendseng menus and all-night entertainment.

An opportunity for Silversea’s valued Venetian Society to unite, the annual Venetian Society cruise enables guests to make new friends while enjoying bespoke experiences in ultimate comfort. The voyage is designed to benefit Silversea’s returning guests, while introducing first-time guests to the cruise line’s close-knit community of travellers. While open to all, special enhancements will enrich the voyage exclusively for members of the Venetian Society, including unique events, special activities, sophisticated receptions and other privileges – both on- and off-shore. The cruise will be hosted by Fernando Barroso de Oliveira, the Ambassador to the Venetian Society for Silversea’s Chairman. On October 11, 2018, Silver Whisper will arrive in Barcelona, where esteemed members of the Venetian Society will enjoy an unprecedented insight into the local culture as part of a world-first, planned and operated exclusively by the ultra-luxury cruise line. Inspired by Catalan traditions and held in one of Barcelona’s prominent architectural marvels, the Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau, the event will encapsulate Silversea’s core values: unlocking authentic experiences and enabling guests to travel deeper in six-star comfort. With private access to the world heritage site after-hours, guests will have the chance to admire the pavilions’ lavish decorations while socializing with like-minded members of the Venetian Society. Then, while sipping cocktails at a hosted reception in the complex’s inner gardens, Silversea’s guests will witness a specially formed human tower exhibition - the very first of its kind in this venue - in which approximately 120 performers will demonstrate a Catalan tradition by forming a vast corporeal structure.
