Silversea has officially set sail on its Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025—a 55-day immersion through iconic cities like Venice, Dubrovnik, and Naples, as well as hidden gems such as Kotor and Trapani. From September 24 to November 18, the Silver Spirit will connect guests to 45 destinations in 12 countries, offering a unique opportunity to explore the Mediterranean's more relaxed pace at the end of summer.
“Our 45-destination Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025 offers our guests the exceptional luxury of time to experience this iconic region like a local,” said Bert Hernandez, Chairman of Silversea. “This voyage has been carefully designed for travelers who have already explored the Mediterranean but value a deeper understanding of its rich cultural heritage. This enriching journey will allow them to discover the region’s hidden gems, enjoy its diverse culinary traditions, and connect with its people in meaningful ways.”
The Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025, aboard the Silver Spirit, begins with a 12-day exploration of the Iberian Peninsula, sailing from Lisbon to Gibraltar and visiting Spain's coastal cities, including Málaga, Ibiza, and Valencia. Guests then travel to Monaco and Italy, exploring Naples and the Amalfi Coast. From there, the itinerary heads to the jewels of the Croatian Adriatic and the Greek islands. The voyage concludes with a return to Italy and Spain, ending in Barcelona, home to Gaudí's Sagrada Família.
Each of these destinations offers opportunities for captivating cultural experiences, including immersive culinary offerings, private tours, and personalized adventures. Guests seeking to savor the region can participate in a SALT Experience, a fusion of Greek and Venetian influences on the island of Corfu, Greece, exploring local produce, spices, and herbs. Those wishing to enjoy the scenery can explore the Ses Salines Natural Park, one of the most pristine areas of Ibiza, Spain, where numerous bird species nest. Whether for adventure or wonder, the timeless charm of the Mediterranean sets the stage for an unforgettable journey of discovery.
Guests will also participate in three exclusive events—unique to this Grand Voyage—which include:
