Silversea Cruise Line is owned by the Lefebvre family of Rome. Silversea cruise ships are some of the best in the ultra-luxury cruise market. Silversea's all-inclusive pricing leaves guests free from worrying about gratuities, port charges and alcoholic beverages (including wine at lunch and dinner). All these typical “extra expenses” are folded into the initial cost of the cruise.
Silver Shadow
The Silver Shadow is one of the two larger, ultra-luxury Silversea cruise ships. Silversea Cruise experts confirm that the staff on this ultra-luxury small ship really know how to make the passengers feel special and pampered. You won't find an inside stateroom on Silver Shadow. All suites are outside and 80% feature private teak verandas. Her small size allows her to access many ports not readily available to larger ships and this also works in her favor as she offers unique itineraries to out-of-the-way ports not usually visited on most mass-market line itineraries.
Silver Whisper
The Silver Whisper is considered a small ship in today's cruise market, but its tonnage of 28,258 gross tons makes it comparable to "midsize" ships like Oceania's Regatta and classic ocean liners such as the Empress of Canada and the Constitution. This Silversea Cruise Ship feels smaller than vessels of similar dimensions because it carries fewer passengers in the same amount of space. Its rated capacity of 388 is about half that of comparable ships, and its space-to-passenger ratio is the highest in the cruise industry.

Silver Cloud
Silversea Cruise line's 'Silver Cloud' ship carries 296 passengers with cabins that are all suites. Discount Silversea Cruise Line has a passenger/space ratio that is among the industry's highest: 56.8. The feeling onboard this Silversea cruise ship is intimate, and a small enough number to feel that you get to know many of the passengers, without feeling crowded or inconvenienced by waiting in lines. There is a feeling of on-board of elegance without pretense, which prevails ship-wide to offer a welcoming feeling aboard the ship.
Silver Wind
Silver Wind is the Silversea Cruise Line's smallest luxury cruise ship to feature both private verandas and a two-deck-high grand theater. Even within the Silversea Cruise Line, this ship feels intimately different. Officers and crewmembers socialize with passengers and learn names by day two.
Onboard Atmosphere & Amenities
Passengers are affluent, and then some. They are heavily skewed to the professional (many of them Fortune 500) types. And they are generally -- as on most small luxury cruise ships -- somewhat older than those found on larger mainstream ships. There is no organized children's program onboard. Silversea cruise line is most definitely inappropriate for most families with young kids. There are lecturers on virtually all cruises, offering insights into the lives and cultures of the people of the countries visited.
Destinations & Itineraries
Silver Sea's four cruise ships blanket the world. They cover Asia, the South Pacific, South America, the Panama Canal, the Mediterranean, the North Cape, Africa and just about every other place ever visited by a cruise ship.
