Silversea Expeditions attracts travellers who are keen to keep exploring the remote regions of our fascinating planet. That’s why we’re always adding new destinations to our itineraries. In 2016, we’re pleased to debut more than 100 new ports. These include Aldabra Atoll — the world’s second-largest coral atoll — in the southern Seychelles, and Agats in Indonesia’s Papua province, home to the once-feared Asmat tribe.
Some of our new expedition experiences include flying to Bagan from Yangon to explore over 3000 standing monuments and spotting elephants in Yala National Park in Sri Lanka, a wildlife sanctuary that is over 100 years old.
Once again, we’ll journey to our planet’s polar extremes. For many modern-day adventurers, Antarctica represents the final frontier. We nose through iceberg-strewn waters and pass mighty glaciers to track down sunbathing seals, breaching whales and playful penguins.
Our Arctic cruises take guests in search of polar bears, walrus, reindeer, seals, whales and seabirds during the brief summer thaw. Extraordinary marine and bird life is also a highlight of our expeditions to the Galápagos Islands off Ecuador. Australia’s untamed Kimberley region offers ancient landscapes and indigenous rock art, along with rugged cliffs and thundering waterfalls.

In an exclusive partnership, Silversea Expeditions and the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) have joined forces to spread knowledge collated from centuries of scientific exploration. Founded nearly 200 years ago to advance geographical science, The Society, whose patron is Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, will share some of the world’s most important geographical research and archive material.
The Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) is a respected professional body for geography and geographers and is one of the
largest societies of its kind in the world, as well as the biggest in Europe. The Society has been a notable supporter and communicator of the work of explorers and scientists, including those of Charles Darwin, David Livingstone, Robert Scott, Sir Ernest Shackleton and Sir Edmund Hillary.
Dating back as far as 1472, there are more than two million items in the Society’s historic collection. Silversea Expeditions guests will benefit from a wide range of specialist visual and written content from the Society, enabling guests to learn even more about their expedition destination.

RUSSIAN FAR EAST Venture to some of the most remote places in the northern latitudes on an expedition to Russia’s little known Far East. Explore the Aleutian Islands in the Bering Sea where more than ten million birds nest. On the Kamchatka Peninsula, the world’s largest brown bears hunt for salmon. This geothermal wonderland is also home to about 160 volcanoes, hundreds of geysers, thermal springs and boiling mud. Head into the Kuril Islands — a haven for huge colonies of seabirds. Northern fur seals and Steller sea lions haul out on rocky outcrops. The Steller's sea eagle soars overhead, and even whales, once hunted almost to extinction, are now returning to these frigid waters.

ALASKA Explore Alaska from our small, agile expedition ship, Silver Discoverer, that can nose into tiny ports, coves and inlets along this pristine coastline. See massive glaciers creaking their way into the Pacific, immense moss-wreathed forests and grizzly bears fattening themselves on grasses, berries and salmon in preparation for their winter hibernation. Explore otherwise inaccessible places on a journey along the Alaska Peninsula. This itinerary includes the bird-rich Aleutian Islands scattered in an arc across the Bering Sea.

RUSSIAN FAR EAST Venture to some of the most remote places in the northern latitudes on an expedition to Russia’s little known Far East. Explore the Aleutian Islands in the Bering Sea where more than ten million birds nest. On the Kamchatka Peninsula, the world’s largest brown bears hunt for salmon. This geothermal wonderland is also home to about 160 volcanoes, hundreds of geysers, thermal springs and boiling mud. Head into the Kuril Islands — a haven for huge colonies of seabirds. Northern fur seals and Steller sea lions haul out on rocky outcrops. The Steller's sea eagle soars overhead, and even whales, once hunted almost to extinction, are now returning to these frigid waters.

AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND Australia’s remote north-west Kimberley region is one of the world’s hottest cruise destinations — and for good reason. Travel to Horizontal Falls — a natural tidal phenomenon that impressed even the great naturalist David Attenborough. See the multi-tiered Mitchell Falls from the air (on an optional excursion) and the strange beehive formations of the Bungle Bungles. On Australia’s east coast, cruise the Great Barrier Reef’s sapphire-blue waters where tropical fish dart around spectacular coral gardens. New Zealand’s wild and beautiful Sub-Antarctic Islands boast their own biodiversity, with distinctive flora known as mega-herbs. Admire rare yellow-eyed penguins and hear bellowing sea lions staking their territory.

GALÁPAGOSFor nature lovers, there’s no more thrilling destination than Ecuador’s pristine Galápagos Islands, home to wildlife found nowhere else on earth. Marvel at the trusting nature of the giant tortoises, land and marine iguanas, blue- and red-footed boobies, flightless cormorants, lava lizards, sea lions, penguins and flamingos that call this remote archipelago home. Our year-round seven-day journeys follow two distinct itineraries, each with their own highlights. Discover how the Galápagos landscape varies from lush forests and mangroves to barren lava fields.
