Have sailed on silversea before and was very pleased with the experience so didn’t think twice before booking another cruise with them .We chose this cruise because of itinerary-specifically the overnight in Sorrento.
Embarkation process was smooth and quick. Our veranda suite was wonderful. Nice large space. Only downside was that there was only one outlet that could handle our U.S. plugs. We ...
We booked this cruise with friends. They liked the itinerary because it stopped in Slovenia and his ancestry is from Slovenia. We wanted to try Silversea, they portray themselves as having ULTRA LUXURIOUS ships. They claim 6 star ratings!
Let's be honest. The Silver Whisper is tired and worn. Hasn't been updated in years.
Not luxurious.
It has good points: spacious stateroom with ...
Never been near the Adriatic or the Balkan countries, thought this as a way to touch on some of them. The cabin was excellent as well as the cabin service. Dining for the most part was very good but the upscale venues left a bit to be desired. The dress code was not uniformly enforced, seemed that some guests were allowed to ignore. The shore excursions were poor and in general a waste of time ...
We had never been to Eastern Europe so when we saw this cruise we were excited. We would have opportunity to visit and get a feel for these countries/ports without having to invest in a long stay at any one port. The ship was a perfect size, easy to traverse. Our Cabin #508 was larger than expected with a very nice balcony. My only minor issue for the whole cruise was that the refrigerator in the ...
This was our first cruise on Silversea and we were extremely impressed. Our cruising background is limited, only three recent Celebrity cruises and one Norwegian back in 1989. I was a bit worried about prior negative reviews and cannot understand some of the negative commentary.
We found the strongest aspect of this cruise to be the food/beverage. In short, everything we were served was ...
Joined the ship at Venice, sail away through Venice was just amazing. Ship was beautiful, spotless with a great ambience. Cabin 833 - fantastic central location with an amazing butler. Enjoyed all the restaurants except Seishin which we didn't try. All were great. We especially enjoyed Le Champagne. We were lucky to have 2 members of the Bolshoi ballet on board and enjoyed Giselle and the ...
Chose for the ports. There were no port lectures.
No childrns activities
Entertainment was poor especially the post show panorama lounge. Felt like the cruise line wanted us to go to bed, did private tours and no admissions were included in the tour which I felt like being nickel and dime'd.
La terrazza service lacking and tables dirty for breakfast. Always had to wait for outside ...
Myself and two girlfriends chose this cruise as it had a list of destinations that other cruise lines do not do ... especially being able to go to Kusadasi, Turkey and take a trip to Ephesus. The Spirit also has one of the largest stateroom verandas which can accomodate 3 adults. We were not over cramped, the bathroom large , a bathtub a bonus. I normally travel with Oceania and found that ...
This was our fifth cruise with Silversea. Ports were excellent and dates worked for us. Thought the food was average, dinner service was ok. Suite (848) was not good because of a constant vibration in the wall whenever the ship was underway. Something wrong when the wall is vibrating all the way up on the 8th deck. Makes you wonder about the engines/props. Could not read in bed because the ...
The ship is really nice. Food was good. Service was very good. We really enjoyed the smaller ship with fewer guests. No crowds, no lines and no drunk rowdy party animals made for a very enjoyable and relaxing on-board experience. The cabin butler was exceptional. Though food was good, you are limited on your dining experience unless you "make reservations" for other restaurants and least 6+ ...
