Silversea's Antarctic Expedition

A beguiling blend of pure luxury and once-in-a-lifetime adventure, Silversea’s small-luxury ship cruises to the Antarctic region (each with no more than 240 guests aboard) are run on unrivalled all-inclusive packages that embrace complimentary in-country flights, pre-cruise hotel stays, shore experiences and much more besides.

But best of all are Silversea’s world-renowned onboard Expedition Staff, who will help you make the most of every minute, whether it’s helping you to spot penguins or teaching you to take the perfect glacier photo. Plus, you'll be enjoying small group adventures by day and sharing experiences with like-minded friends by night.

Silversea offers two ways of getting to ‘the White continent’: you can sail the iconic Drake Passage, or if you have less time, you can fly straight to the heart of Antarctica in just two hours with Antarctica Bridge.

Booking a Silversea small-luxury ship cruise to Antarctica, you will enjoy as part of your package private chauffeur-driven transport from home to airport and back again, reduced Business Class air fares or inclusive Economy Class round-trips (plus included charter/group flights when required by the itinerary), a one-night hotel stay, one day’s use of hotel facilities, transfers between airport, hotel and ship, included guided Zodiac sorties and other shore excursions, diverse cuisine in several restaurants with open-seating dining, drinks in-suite and throughout the ship, including champagne, hand-picked wines and spirits, and butler service in every suite, along with in-suite dining and room service.
