Explore the Jewels of the Mediterranean with Silversea
On each cruise, travellers can look forward to exploring tiny islands and coastlines not frequented by larger cruise ships, as well as visiting landmark destinations.

“We are offering the best of Europe this summer. With our Italian heritage, we are excited to show guests these destinations as only an insider can,” says Steve Odell, President of Silversea for Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Some of the highlights of this summer’s offerings are:
