The cruise just prior to ours was apparently the cruise from hell (see previous reviews) with ship breakdown, missed ports and time delays. Thankfully everything seemed to be corrected for our departure. Other than today's typical airline horror stories, which we just barely missed, we arrived in Vancouver at 4:30 in the morning, of departure day. Therefore, our free day in the departure city ...
I chose this cruise because of the size of the ship and the cruise lines reputation.
Embarkation was sooo easy... best ever actually... our cabin was huge, loved it. Our butler, Richard was lovely, very attentive and anticipated all our needs. Entertainment was ok... nothing to write home about.... but the ports, service and ship.... perfect! Read so many negative reviews before sailing- was ...
My husband and I wanted to do an Alaskan cruise and had a good experience on Silver Seas in the Adriatic. The ship was ready when we got to port in Vancouver and our check-in and bag arrival to the room were seamless. Our "butler," Ardvin, was a wonderful human being and attentive without being obsequious or intrusive. Each day, the housekeeper, Wendy, had the room spotless and inviting. Meals on ...
This was our first cruise and a trip of a lifetime to Alaska.We looked at many cruise lines and we felt that this would be a good value. We were not wrong. Silver Seas is first class. I do wish that port time was longer but we did cover a lot of ground (or sea)... I cannot say enough about the crew and how wonderful they were. Pleasant, professional and just what was promoted by the cruise line. ...
This was our first experience with Silver Sea. We loved the smaller ship (about 400 passengers) and the good mix, with some family groups, some older and some younger than us. We traveled as a couple but enjoyed camaraderie with fellow passengers.
Our cabin was a very good size even though it was a standard room with veranda. The attendant and butler kept it in tip-top shape. we didn't ...
We were looking for a smaller ship with high-end values and we found it on the Silver Shadow. The tours were excellent and our cabin (808) was perfect. We loved our butler and maid. Embarkation and debarkation were extremely smooth and efficient. Would love to do it all over again. Unfortunately, since we booked only 2 months in advance we were not able to book the 2 speciality restaurants. ...
Celebrated our 25th anniversary with Alaska Cruise. Sliverseas must have listened to their customers for everthing to go so smoothly, could not have asked for a better embarkation or disembackment. Our excursions were wonderful, got to witness so much wildlife and amazing landscapes. Everything was great excepted our waistlines getting bigger. The cabins were great, food choices were excellent ...
We chose Silversea because of its stellar reputation and attention to every detail. My family spent 2 days in Vancouver before the cruise. What a beautiful city! Don't miss visiting Suspension Bridge Park- definitely a must see. The ease and organization that was displayed by the luggage handlers for Silversea as we arrived at the dock confirmed what we had read about this cruise line--attention ...
This was everything I had hoped it would be when I booked it several months ago. The crew was over the top friendly and accommodating. It was very difficult to do anything for yourself as there was always a crew member offering to it for you. Our butler, Mark, was fantastic satisfying all of our needs and occasionally surprising us with something we had not expected. Wendy, our cabin attendant, ...
We chose this cruise because we wanted a ship with a small amount of people and we wanted to cruise round trip from Vancouver. We researched the cruise ship online and all of the ports before making a decision and it sounded like what we were looking for. It turned out to be absolutely perfect!! The ship was just the right size and it was beautiful and spotless from top to bottom and ...
