Responding to evolving guest expectations, Silversea has unveiled a new tiered fare structure designed to provide travellers with greater choice and flexibility. While the line remains committed to its hallmark all-inclusive offering—renowned as one of the most comprehensive at sea—this new approach allows guests to personalise their journeys with additional elements such as flights, hotels, transfers, and curated land experiences.
Launched in mid-September 2025, the enhanced structure represents a dynamic shift towards tailor-made travel, empowering guests to fine-tune every detail of their cruise while retaining the effortless luxury for which Silversea is celebrated.
At the pinnacle of the new structure sits the All-Inclusive Plus Fare—ideal for those seeking the ultimate in value and exclusivity. This package includes Silversea’s “Fare Guarantee Programme” and a refundable deposit, along with generous credits for shore excursions on ocean voyages, varying by length and destination.
For expedition voyages, the inclusions are even more extensive: complimentary shore excursions, Zodiac tours, expert lectures, in-country flights, and pre- or post-cruise hotel nights where required. This fare is designed to deliver a seamless, all-encompassing luxury experience both on board and ashore.
Positioned as a balanced middle ground, the All-Inclusive Fare is available exclusively on ocean cruises. Guests enjoy the same premium onboard amenities—fine dining, drinks, and enrichment programmes—while retaining the flexibility to purchase shore excursions either in advance or during the voyage.
This fare requires a non-refundable deposit but offers excellent value for those who appreciate luxury at sea while curating their own experiences ashore.
Catering to spontaneous and budget-conscious travellers, the Last-Minute Fare applies to sailings booked within five months of departure. Available across both ocean and expedition itineraries, it delivers significant savings while still including Silversea’s core onboard luxuries.
Guests should note that the full fare is payable at the time of booking, and deposits are non-refundable. This option is perfect for those with flexible schedules seeking a premium cruise experience at exceptional value.
Alongside its revised fare structure, Silversea has expanded its portfolio of land programmes, offering five distinct categories:
Highlight Experiences – visits to iconic landmarks and must-see attractions.
Signature Experiences – small-group tours curated for more intimate exploration.
Private Experiences – bespoke tours for individuals or small parties.
Custom Experiences – itineraries designed entirely around guest preferences.
Overland Experiences – multi-day inland adventures providing deeper immersion.
Additionally, Silversea now offers City Stays in celebrated European capitals such as Copenhagen, Rome, Barcelona, and Athens, combining luxury hotel stays with curated cultural and dining opportunities.
This innovative fare system marks a pivotal evolution for Silversea, aligning luxury cruising with today’s growing demand for personalisation. Whether travellers prioritise value, flexibility, or an uncompromising all-inclusive experience, the new structure ensures that every voyage is as unique as its guests.
Bert Hernandez, President of Silversea, noted that the changes reflect consistent guest feedback, with the emphasis firmly on freedom of choice. From spontaneous escapes to meticulously planned itineraries, Silversea’s new approach makes it easier than ever to craft a bespoke journey while enjoying the signature elegance of the brand.
Silversea’s latest evolution reaffirms its position at the forefront of ultra-luxury cruising—delivering flexibility, value, and unforgettable experiences both on land and at sea
