Silversea Cruises, founded in 1994 by the Lefebvre family of Rome, was created with the vision of delivering ultra-luxury, all-inclusive cruises to the world’s most remote and iconic destinations. The company made a bold entrance into the industry with the launch of Silver Cloud, a ship that redefined luxury cruising by offering an intimate, yacht-like experience paired with world-class service and fine dining.
Over the years, Silversea has built a reputation as a leader in luxury expedition and classic cruising. Its fleet includes both expedition vessels and classic ships that travel to over 900 destinations worldwide – more than any other cruise line. The cruise line prides itself on offering an all-inclusive experience that goes beyond the norm: gourmet cuisine, premium beverages, gratuities, butler service in every suite, and shore excursions are all included. Their commitment to comfort and luxury is complemented by a focus on enrichment and discovery, with onboard experts, lectures, and curated land experiences enhancing the journey. The brand is now a part of the Royal Caribbean Group, which has bolstered its global presence and investment in innovation. In 2023, Silversea introduced the Silver Nova, a groundbreaking vessel that incorporates sustainable technology, including a hybrid power source to reduce emissions and environmental impact. The ship’s asymmetrical design allows for more open spaces and panoramic views, setting a new standard in cruise design.
Silversea is also expanding its expedition fleet and refining its shore programs under the "Sea and Land Taste” (S.A.L.T.) culinary concept, which explores local cuisine in greater depth. As it grows, Silversea remains committed to delivering immersive, luxurious travel experiences to the most extraordinary corners of the world.
