Silversea, the ultra-luxury expedition cruise line, has a wide array of ultra-luxury Arctic cruises for summer 2024, with 37 itineraries visiting destinations in Greenland, Iceland, Canada, and the United States between June and September 2024. These voyages include the opportunity to witness icebergs glittering in the midnight sun, or polar bears roaming freely, with the only sound being the creaking of the ice. A pristine and undisturbed land that still offers unexplored areas, stretching from the Canadian Arctic and Greenland to the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard.
Two Silversea expedition ships will be making these trips during the summer season: the Silver Cloud, after an extensive renovation, the most spacious and comfortable ship in the expedition cruises, with four dining options, 20 brand-new Zodiacs and 10 kayaks, in addition to large suites and ample public areas; and the Silver Wind, a ship renovated in November 2021, with its icebreaker-class hull and capacity for only 274 passengers, one of the most comfortable and welcoming in the expedition fleet.
In addition, Silversea offers its passengers private airport transfers; discounts on business class flights, as well as hotel and transfers included; excursions and guided tours, plus full board. Room service and butler service are also available in all suites.
Those who book Silversea's door-to-door and port-to-port options will fly to the Arctic on private charter flights, enjoying enhanced service throughout, superior cuisine, premium beverages, and bespoke onboard entertainment. Luxury accommodations are included as standard on both door-to-door and port-to-port flights when the itinerary requires. Upon arrival in the Arctic, guests will be transferred to their luxurious ship, ready to explore.
