What the Silversea fare includes

  • Butler service in every suite, on every ship in the fleet — not a concierge on call, a butler attached to the room
  • Dining across the ship's restaurants, including the S.A.L.T. venues on the ships that carry them
  • Premium beverages throughout the ship: wines, spirits, beers and soft drinks, poured wherever you happen to be
  • Onboard gratuities — nothing to sign for and no tipping expected
  • Complimentary Wi-Fi and use of the fitness centre
  • On the All-Inclusive Plus fare, a shore excursion credit for classic voyages, scaled by Silversea to the length and region of the sailing rather than a flat allowance
All 8 inclusions, and what is charged separately

    On the Silversea page

Ask us for the full calendar and the dates that suit you.

Each fare is the lowest suite category still open when we last read Silversea's own booking data (the date is on the row), per guest at double occupancy; a suite for two runs roughly double. On classic voyages that figure is usually Silversea's lowest fare type, which is cruise-only with a non-refundable deposit and no shore-excursion credit; the Plus fare, with a refundable deposit and the credit, costs more. Silversea's Last Minute fares are not eligible for consortium benefits, so a Last Minute figure here carries no Virtuoso amenity; the Plus fare does. Silversea publishes some voyages as days rather than nights, and the expedition sailings include the pre-cruise hotel and charter flights the line lists separately. We confirm the live fare and what your dates include before you commit.
