Silver Whisper

Fort Lauderdale-based Silversea Cruises results from a vision in which Rome’s Lefebvre family, former owners of Sitmar Cruises, opted to build and operate a line catering to the cruise industry’s ultra-luxury segment. Silversea -- so-named named to connote champagne and caviar excellence melded with romance float -- launched its first ship, Silver Cloud, in 1994, followed by Silver Wind a year later, and two more similarly luxurious yet larger ships, Silver Shadow and Silver Whisper, in 2000 and 2001. Purpose-built for pampering, the vessels are designed to carry fewer passengers basking in more space enjoying extreme levels of personalized service, all the while slipping into exotic, often less accessible ports. With Italian officers and a seasoned European staff, hallmarks from the start have been all ocean-view suites, most with private verandas, open seating dining options, and overall emphasis on ambiance targeting the cruising elite. In 2004, Silversea sails more than 140 itinereries with calls to 45 new ports.

Quick View

As an innovator, Silversea quickly became a favorite among affluent travelers with its all-inclusive pricing including all beverages and onboard products enhanced by partnerships with luxury brands such as bvlgari Davidoff and Relais & Chateaux. Aboard Silver Whisper, service is personalized to a point where some guests wish never to disembark. Elegant décor lends itself to formal evenings as well as chic, casual days at sea. Exotic itineraries to far-flung locales are another magnet.
