Not such a good experience as we were expecting

Review for a Caribbean - All Cruise on Silver Dawn

Just returned from a 12 day Caribbean cruise on Silver Dawn and we were quite disappointed, but we cannot pinpoint why. Its a lovely ship and the crew were great. The layout of the deck gave rise to limited sunbed availability on sea days - not helped by individuals grabbing the double sunbeds for themselves. There is a big area of deck gone to waste forward of the pool area above the ...

Nice Ship, food and excursions lacking

Review for a South America Cruise on Silver Nova

Went with two friends, at their recommendation. Silver Nova is a very nice ship, with good interior design. Service was excellent on board. The food was a let-down. The menus were great, but the food was mostly below par. We had reservations at the paid dining rooms, but we cancelled when the prices were raised to astronomical levels. I can understand having paid restaurants, but trying to ...

Great ship but multiple communication snags

Chose this trip due to Silversea's high reputation, plus the destination (Galapagos Islands) had long been on our bucket list. With confirmation, SS advised us to book door to door transportation. Unfortunately their contractor does not serve our area. The app we were advised to use could not locate our trip. Instead we used the airline app, which allowed us to upgrade seats. Airport to hotel to ...

My wife and I travelled from Lima, Peru to Miami on Silver Moon Dec 2022 to Jan 2023. Good food, comfort and ship atmosphere are important. Have sailed many times with Princess and lately many times with Seabourn; now our favorite. Cabin We had a deluxe balcony suite which is about 8 inches narrower than the comparable Seabourn suite. The Silver Moon (SM) suite is not as practically or as ...

Amazon cruise lacks shore activities

We chose this cruise as a means to pursue something different. Having boated on rivers for many years we thought cruising the Amazon would be a good extension of the activity. We looked forward to seeing the cities, wildlife and the notion of seeing piranha fish. Embarkation was very smooth and they lived up to expectations. Our room was clean and well stocked with fruit and beverages. Out ...

I have sailed Silver Seas more than 600 days and got to know and befriend the crew on other ships. Knowing that SS chose the cream of the crew for Muse I wished to join them. The crew exceeded my expectations. As the ship is new there were very few visual or maintenance problems. The inexpensive art works were not great. My major problem was the dining experience. Firstly, and mainly, the in cabin ...

The route seemed perfect to us: A few nights in Buenos Aires before the cruise, a few nights after in Rio and some great places in-between: we knew this was for us! And in fact most of it was wonderful, especially Punta del Este (grab a taxi to Bikini Beach), a day in the Pampas on a lovely farm, the un-touristy destination of Montevideo, the final Carnival parade at the Sambódromo, Rio in general ...

Overall disappointing

We have travelled on Regent several times and wanted to compare Silversea. The ship was beautiful and our suite was excellent as was our butler Pedro. The excursions were generally mediocre and greatly overpriced. The food was very good but service was mixed. It was marginal in the La Terrza and poor in LaDame but good elsewhere. Paying extra for LaDame -- good but not exceptional food --with ...

We chose this cruise because of the S. American itinerary and because the Muse was a new ship.We were concerned about the previous negative reviews we had read related to dining and formal nights and we were pleased to see that these items were not an issue. We never had a problem getting a reservation in any of the restaurants even though we changed many of our original reservations. There ...

We chose this cruise primarily for the itinerary, but also because an acquaintance was actively recruiting people to join her and her husband on their sixth Silversea cruise. She was enthusiastic about the line and spoke highly of the travel agent she has used for many years. We ended up with a group of 18, some who had previously traveled together and others, like us, who were "newbies" to the ...
