1-10 of 10 Silversea Silver Muse Cruise Reviews for Romantic to Alaska from Vancouver
We didn’t know really what to expect or if the cruise would be too short but it was great from start to finish. This was our second cruise with Silversea in less than a year and we decided on Alaska because we had such a good experience on Silver Spirit in the Med. This ship was even better. While the Spirit was great this updated sistership was slightly better. We stayed in cabin which was ...
We chose this cruise because it’s supposed to be 6 star luxury & also includes the excursions. Boarding the cruise was seamless & impressive. Suites & ship are beautiful. Service in main restaurants was slow & inconsistent. It seemed everyone was new & inexperienced except a handful which were good. Food was average. We asked for soy milk in the breakfast restaurant & the first 4 days they said ...
PROS:
First and foremost the on ship service was outstanding and the crew very attentive, though understandably on the first day it is a bit chaotic and service is harder to find with everyone running around.
The all inclusive nature (which you of coruse pay for in the fare) makes things very easy.
Once the butler knows your preferences they are quite efficient (it just wont happen day ...
We went on this Silversea cruise on the inside passage with my mom for her birthday. I've been on a number of cruises with other cruise lines, but it's been about 6 years since we last cruised. I had high expectations with Silversea because it was billed as a luxury cruise and expected more.
Overall, we had a great time. Ports were nice and the crew were very nice. It was nice being in a ...
I chose this cruise because the 7 day itinerary fitted in with a trip to Vancouver, Alaska and Seattle of nearly 4 weeks. And it went to 4 ports, whereas the premium lines only went to 3 ports in 7 days. And it had a lot fewer people, which is a great bonus. We booked in 2018 for 2020 (postponed to 2022) so we paid probably half of what it would have cost this year.
This was our first ocean ...
Alaska cruise from Vancouver to Seward - a fantastic way to see Alaska! However - the actual cruise was disappointing. The "entertainment" on board was outdated and like a high school talent hour. It was so bad that it was laughable. The restaurant choices were poor, the only variety offered from the on board restaurants required a supplemental charge. The complimentary house wines were ...
We picked this Alaska cruise for timing and length with our work schedules. This was my first time in Alaska and my partner's second. Alaska was amazing, the weather was perfect, the scenery amazing, people genuine. The cruise was overall was not five star. We had sailed with Silversea prior to Covid and I'm sure this had a lot to do with expectation versus reality. The pre Covid sailing with ...
We were sadly disappointed from the start when the Muse "broke" and we we didn't depart until a day later than scheduled. We had already spent two days in Vancouver exploring the city, so the offer of a "free excursion" to see the city was of no interest. We had already seen everything offered! We're still waiting to hear the details of the "15% credit of our cruise cost for a future cruise." ...
This was our first cruise with Silversea (my first with any line) but will not be our last. We felt pampered and enjoyed our meals consistently throughout the 7 days. The ship and our cabin were bright and clean. The staff were cheerful and polite. We were fortunate to have sunny and fairly warm weather in Alaska throughout our cruise. Going in September we were concerned a bit about this, ...
This was our 9th Silversea cruise all previous being on Spirit and Shadow, so we were keen to sample the Muse.
We stayed in Fairmont Waterfront pre cruise, and exceptional hotel, top tip, choose a harbour view Gold floor room.
It was a mixed experience on the Muse.
The new Musification decor and the ship did not disappoint, a stunning ship and much improved over the older ships.
