Travelling with Silversea is ideal for solo travellers as all arrangements are taken care of and you are travelling as part of a group, on guided excursions. Yet with a small ship, you’re not “lost amongst the masses” and there is plenty of space to find your own quiet time away from other people.
New in 2018, we invite solo guests to a pre-cruise cocktail party offering you the chance to meet other guests prior to boarding the ship.
Limited cabins for 2018 departures
Avoid paying the single occupancy surcharge with Ultimate Cruising’s solo traveller matching service where we will match you with another solo traveller of the same gender in a Prestige Deck 5 Stateroom.
Or, for just 25% extra, enjoy sole use of the cabin!
Cruise through the legendary Drake Passage and explore Earth’s least visited continent “Antarctica” onboard the luxurious Silver Cloud. Travelling to Antarctica is a thrill as there is so much to see: stand in awe of icebergs and glaciers, cruise across seas of glass, passing giant prisms of ice riding an ink-blue sea, share the landscape with elephant seals, a flock of penguins and a wealth of different birds. The Silver Cloud carries just 130 guests ensuring the staff ratio of 1:2. Guests onboard have access to a navy of Zodiac boats allowing you to visit the remote path locations. Silversea welcomes many solo guests on the Antarctic voyages. With plenty of like-minded people, a spell-binding vista and new adventures at every turn, you won’t be short of good company or activities and excursions.

THE VESSEL
SILVER CLOUD EXPEDITION
Welcome Aboard
After extensive refurbishment, Silver Cloud will be the most spacious and comfortable ice class vessel in expedition cruising. Her large suites, her destination itineraries and her unparalleled service make her truly special. Her five dining options will tantalise your taste buds and as 80% of her suites include a veranda, watching a breaching whale or a few cavorting penguins has never been so personal. Broad sweeping decks with multiple open spaces and a swimming pool complete what is surely the most distinctive expedition ship sailing today.
A limited number of guests, particularly with just 200 in polar waters, mean that Silver Cloud has the highest space to guest and crew to guest ratios in expedition cruising. With her 18 zodiacs, possibilities are almost limitless with ship-wide simultaneous explorations. Finally, a team of 19 passionate and dedicated experts are always at hand to ensure your voyage is enhanced every step of the way.
