Silversea has unveiled its 2028-2029 Voyage Collection, featuring 278 cruises to 497 destinations across 71 countries, with departures scheduled between March 2028 and March 2029. Highlights include the brand’s largest-ever Mediterranean expedition programme, Silver Nova‘s inaugural season in Northern Europe, an enhanced Antarctica Fly Cruise programme and the 60-day Grand Mediterranean Voyage aboard Silver Dawn.
The new collection introduces more than 120 new and returning ports of call across both classic cruises and expedition voyages. General sales opened on 9 July 2026.
Bert Hernandez, President of Silversea, said: “Our new 2028-2029 Voyage Collection reflects what Silversea does best – taking guests beyond the expected, to destinations and cultural moments that reveal the world in ways they didn’t expect. From Mediterranean Expedition voyages to an enhanced Antarctica Fly Cruise program and the 60-day Grand Mediterranean Voyage aboard Silver Dawn, this collection offers our guests a unique array of destination experiences, delivered in a way that only Silversea can.”
Largest Mediterranean Expedition Programme to Date
One of the standout features of the 2028-2029 Voyage Collection is Silversea’s most extensive Mediterranean expedition programme ever.
Aboard Silver Wind, guests can explore new itineraries that include the Greek islands of Milos, Amorgos and Folegandros, as well as Algiers and Béjaïa in Algeria, Pantelleria off the coast of Sicily and a rare inland voyage along the Guadalquivir River to Seville.
Beyond the Mediterranean, the expedition portfolio also includes sailings to the Arctic, Greenland, Antarctica, the British Isles, French Polynesia, the Galápagos and other remote regions. Silver Endeavour will also introduce a new Baltic expedition programme, exploring destinations in Finland and Sweden.
Silver Nova Makes Northern Europe Debut
The 2028-2029 season will mark Silver Nova‘s first deployment in Northern Europe. Together with Silver Spirit, the ship will sail through Norway’s iconic Heritage Fjords, including Geiranger and Flåm.
The programme also features Baltic itineraries visiting Sweden and Finland. Meanwhile, Silver Ray will continue operating in Europe with a dedicated Monaco Grand Prix sailing, alongside voyages through the Adriatic and the Greek Isles.
Enhanced Antarctica Fly Cruise Programme
Silversea has further enhanced its Antarctica Fly Cruise programme. The journey begins with a stay at The Cormorant at 55 South in Puerto Williams, Chile, which the company describes as the world’s southernmost hotel.
From there, guests board a private charter flight directly to King George Island, avoiding the Drake Passage and allowing more time to explore Antarctica.
A total of 41 Antarctica voyages are scheduled for the 2028-2029 season aboard Silver Cloud, Silver Endeavour and Silver Wind, including dedicated Christmas and New Year’s departures.
60-Day Grand Mediterranean Voyage Aboard Silver Dawn
One of the collection’s highlights is the Grand Mediterranean Voyage 2028 aboard Silver Dawn. Departing on 23 September 2028, the 60-day voyage will visit 50 destinations across 13 countries, including Greece, Croatia, Italy, the Adriatic and the Iberian Peninsula.
The itinerary combines renowned destinations such as Istanbul, Dubrovnik and Amalfi with lesser-visited ports including Menton in France, Naxos in the Greek Isles and Roses on Spain’s Catalan coast.
Guests will also enjoy exclusive experiences, including a private evening on Athens’ Yiasemi Street and a Papal experience in Rome during an overnight stay in October 2028.
Voyages Timed to Cultural Highlights
Several itineraries in the 2028-2029 Voyage Collection have been scheduled to coincide with major cultural and seasonal events.
Guests aboard Silver Ray can experience the Monaco Grand Prix from the harbour of Monte Carlo, while Silver Whisper will visit Japan during the country’s renowned festival season, including the Kyoto Gion Matsuri, the Nebuta Festival in Aomori, the Kochi Yosakoi Festival and the Awa Odori in Tokushima.
Northern European sailings are timed to coincide with traditional Midsummer celebrations. Along the Atlantic coasts of Spain, Portugal and northern France, Silver Nova will sail during the grape harvest season, with the S.A.L.T. (Sea And Land Taste) programme offering immersive culinary experiences featuring local winemakers, producers and regional cuisine.
In addition to its cruise programme, Silversea is expanding its collection of land experiences. New options include a three-night journey exploring Finland’s sauna culture, coastal landscapes and gastronomy, as well as a three-night stay at a private island resort in the Seychelles for guests embarking in Mahé.
