The ultra-luxury cruise brand Silversea will enrich its World Cruise 62-port itinerary through once-in-a-lifetime events, expedition-style embellishments and shore-side excursions.

Over 140 days, Silver Whisper will take passengers closer to the world's authentic beauty, unlocking unique experiences in spectacular destinations between Fort Lauderdale FL and Amsterdam.

Silversea’s World Cruise 2020 will feature a special 3-day Antarctic experience, in which passengers may witness penguins, whales, seals, and other wildlife in their natural habitat.

Led by a team of 9 qualified specialists, Silversea’s guests may also explore the final continent via Zodiac excursions before learning more about the spectacular region through workshops and lectures from industry-leading experts. 

A standout destination on Silver Whisper's itinerary is the hard-to-reach Pitcairn Island. Another highlight is Pentecost Island, where guests can witness the land diving ritual, performed by locals in order to celebrate yam harvest.

On Champagne Bay, Vanuatu guests will be able to enjoy a local festival showcasing an exclusively performed water dance performed by traditionally-adorned locals.
