Silversea’s expedition ships are the ones to look out for:
What makes Silversea expedition ships so special is the amount of experts and professionals on board – people like Dr. Birute Mary Galdikas will read lectures on wildlife and the Russian Bolshoi Theatre dancers will put on spectacular performances on stage.
