Silversea's inaugural ship, Silver Cloud has been the luxury line's flagship since its inception in 1994. Now a breathtaking expedition ship, she is an embodiment of the quality that has defined Silversea for well over a decade, with a stunning roster of features that are sure to delight cruisers.
After a renovation in 2017, Silver Cloud has been given a stylish update that has brought this exemplary ship into the current generation of expedition cruising in fine form. Its status as an iconic cruise ship is now complemented by brand new carpet furnishings and fittings, meaning it can stand alongside even the most modern of cruise ships and still look spectacular.
80 percent of the suites feature a veranda, perfect for whale-watching and peering into penguin colonies. With a minuscule number of guests permitted at any one time, the ship has the highest space to guest and crew ratio in expedition cruising.
With destinations further highlighted with expedition experts and guided Zodiac tours, Silver Cloud offers an immersive on-board experience like no other in expedition cruising. See our best deals below for Silver Cloud, and call our Cruise Concierge team today to book your place on-board.
