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 ...
We (just the two of us) love the size of this ship and that all the cabins are a comfortable size, though we did have a larger cabin on this particular cruise. The service was impeccable as usual and food was very good (and that is saying a lot since I am a very picky eater). We always arrive a few days before our cruise since we know things can go astray (cancelled flights, delayed flights, etc) ...
