WE have sailed 4 times with Silversea. Twice in the Silver Cloud (before becoming a expidition ship) and twice on the Silver Spirit (before the latest refurb.).
We sailed from Mumbai to Dubai. As usual the Silversea staff was attentive and our cabin butler was offered excellent services.
The cabin was larger and clean.
The dining room service and food were excellent and the wait service attentive and the food, as always, we excellent.
The itinerary met all of our requirements and the excursions offered covered much of what one would want to see. At some ports we chose to hire a cab to take us around. We found the drivers very willing and their prices reasonable. Just make sure you agree on a price prior to beginning.
This is not a ship to take children and that includes teenagers. Small ships have limited entertainment facilities and The are other curise lines better suited to handling children.
The accommodations on this ship have changed since our cruise. I therefore will not comment on the owner's Suite.
As one would expect this was a large accommodation with a a bathroom and a powder room.
We hired a private sightseeing company at this stop and found. However, the ships excursions covered most of the same areas we covered.
