Silversea, the leading experiential luxury and expedition travel brand, has enhanced its fare structure, providing guests with greater flexibility by introducing three new fare types. Beginning September 11th, 2025, these new fare types will enable guests to personalize their travel experiences with pre- and post-cruise add-ons — including air travel, hotels, transfers, and land experiences. Remaining unchanged, Silversea’s all-inclusive onboard offering will continue to be one of the most comprehensive at sea.
THE LUXURY OF CHOICE: GREATER FLEXIBILITY AND PEACE OF MIND
Silversea’s three new fares include:
Silversea’s new ‘All-Inclusive Plus Fare’ provides the greatest value to guests, and offers a refundable deposit, as well as the peace of mind provided by the brand’s Fare Guarantee Program. When opting for the ‘All-Inclusive Plus Fare’ on oceangoing voyages, guests will enjoy a shore excursion credit — determined by the length and region of the sailing — that they can apply to the experiences of their choice. All expedition voyages will continue to offer included shore excursions as part of the experience, as well as Zodiac tours, expert lectures, in-country flights, and pre-/post-cruise hotel nights as required by the destination, and other customary inclusions.
Silversea’s ‘All-Inclusive Fare’ will be available exclusively on oceangoing voyages. This fare type offers guests the flexibility to purchase shore excursions à la carte, either before the cruise or on board. ‘All Inclusive Fares’ will require a non-refundable deposit.
Available on select oceangoing and expedition voyages within five months of departure, the ‘Last-Minute Fare’ offers guests favorable savings. With this fare, the deposit is non-refundable, and the total payment must be paid in full at the time of booking.
Guests can opt to purchase their air travel, pre- and post-cruise hotels, transfers, shore excursions, and land experiences through Silversea for all fares, tailored to their needs and preferences.
“The Luxury of Choice reflects our deep commitment to delivering on the feedback of our guests,” said Bert Hernandez, president, Silversea. “Our guests consistently tell us that they value flexibility in their travels. With our new fare options, we’re empowering them to personalize every aspect of their journey — from start to finish — while continuing to enjoy our signature all-inclusive onboard experience, which is one of the most comprehensive at sea.”
Silversea’s all-inclusive onboard offering will remain consistent, regardless of guests’ preferred fare type. See below for a more detailed overview of the inclusions for each of Silversea’s three new fares:
1Credit amount varies by departure and can only be applied to Highlight Experiences, Signature Experiences and Private Experiences
2Number of dining options varies by ship
3When required by destination
4Included Expedition gear varies by region and departure
While Silversea strives to serve all listed items, some may be subject to availability or excluded in certain destinations, such as Galápagos. Expedition Voyages do not include the ‘All-Inclusive Fare’.
SILVERSEA ALSO EVOLVES ITS DIVERSE OFFERING OF LAND EXPERIENCES
With the introduction of its enhanced fare structure, Silversea is also evolving its offering of shore excursions, providing yet more opportunities for guests to personalize their voyages. Ensuring it delivers local immersion, authentic cultural connections, and lasting impressions, Silversea is broadening its shore excursion offering with all-new experience types — thoughtfully curated by the brand. Beginning September 11th, the brand’s land experiences will include:
Moreover, the brand recently launched City Stays by Silversea — thoughtfully curated pre- and post-cruise hotel stays in some of the world's most iconic destinations, such as Copenhagen, Rome, Barcelona, and Athens. City Stays by Silversea enable guests to live like locals in a centrally located, luxury hotel with personalized service, immersing them in their embarkation/debarkation city while offering a turnkey solution to their ground arrangements. Guests gain an appreciation for authentic life in the city, enjoying dining experiences, historical and cultural insights through curated tours, and meaningful interactions with the local community.
