In 1994, Silversea Cruises set a course of pampered luxury with the launching of the 296-passenger sister ships Silver Cloud and Silver Wind. Targeting the ultra luxury segment of cruising, the company hired experienced European staff and chartered an exotic course of itineraries. While yacht-like, all-suite luxury ships already had their place, Silversea upped the stakes by adding private verandas to 75% of all staterooms and made the experience as all-inclusive as it gets today. Silver Cloud and Silver Wind were so successful that the line built the larger, 28,000-ton 388-passenger Silver Shadow, which entered service in September 2000. She was followed by Silver Whisper in July, 2001. On Silver Shadow and Whisper, a standard cabin with private balcony is 360 sq. feet (vs. 295 on the existing ships), with most of the added space going into bathrooms and closets. Silversea recently introduced a series of Silversea Expeditions, allowing Luxury clients to experience destinations off the beaten path. Silversea guests can now explore the far corners of the earth while living in luxury accommodations. more

Antarctica is the world's southernmost continent, underlying the South Pole and is a continent of contradictions: volcanoes erupting from a frozen landscape; miles of snow and ice, yet hardly any snow falls each year; an arid land surrounded by three oceans. A cruise to Antarctica -- the "White Continent" -- is a thrilling and unique experience! You will see penguin rookeries as well as have the opportunity to whale- and bird-watch. Guides will take you to areas that will delight naturalists! Experience the thrill of crossing the Antarctic Circle and sailing through the Drake Passage! The towering cliffs at Paradise Harbor will leave you awe-struck! When you visit Antarctica, you will see glorious views, unlike anywhere else on earth! Cruises to Antarctica are usually a minimum of 9 or 10 nights. They are offered between December and March during their Summer Season. Since they typically set sail from Argentina, South America, international travel is required. more
