I am thrilled to present the 2015 Silversea Expeditions
voyages. Our three purpose built expedition ships will
offer a worldwide schedule of 102 voyages, visiting
more than 500 destinations on 7 continents, including
50 new ports of call.
Venture to the remote regions of our extraordinary
planet. Our expert, specially selected expedition
teams accompany each of our expeditions to
far-fl ung lands. Each one of our staff is selected to
enhance the destination experience and may include
marine biologists, ornithologists, polar historians,
glaciologists and anthropologists bringing the
voyage to life with information.
In 2015 aboard Silver Discoverer, guests will have the
opportunity to visit the thousands of islands that are
Southeast Asia as well as Micronesia, Melanesia and
Polynesia. In the Russian Far East we will witness the
spectacle of the summer bird migrations, and search
for Brown bear on the Kamchatka Peninsula. The
Sub-Antarctic voyages will visit one of the most diverse
pelagic ecosystems in the world, spending two days
with King penguins and Elephant seals on Macquarie
Island and majestic albatross on Campbell Island.
The glorious Kimberley region in Western Australia will
reveal unique landscapes whilst we learn about the
indigenous people.
Marvel at the wonders of the great white continent,
Antarctica, and see the King of the Arctic – the
magnifi cent Polar bear. Join us in spotting Blue-footed
boobies in the Galápagos Islands, Howler monkeys
and Scarlet macaws in Central and South America,
or be fascinated by cultural groups few people have
ever met. Join us.conrad combrinkDirector Expedition Planning

THE WORLD OF S ILVERSEA ExPEDIT IONS
Offering journeys that are just as exhilarating as they are luxurious, Silversea Expeditions’ fl eet of three
purpose-built expedition ships explore much of the unknown world while enjoying the signature distinctions that
have made Silversea the epitome of luxury expedition cruising.
In the company of a highly experienced expedition team, sail to some of the most remote and isolated corners
of the globe, landing on beaches undisturbed by tourists and islands uninhabited by man. Enter the realm of the
Polar bear. Glimpse an orangutan in the wild or an Elephant seal staking out his claim. Share in the traditions of
Stone Age cultures while enjoying an all-inclusive lifestyle that is the ultimate in civility — the hallmark of Silversea.

explore tHe many Faces oF asia paciFic
In its fi rst full sailing year and with a mere 128 guests, Silversea’s latest expedition ship, Silver Discoverer sails for
lands untouched by time or tourist. Visit remote tribal villages where few Westerners have ever set foot, uncharted
atolls and coral isles vibrant with marine life, and vast yet fragile rainforests that nature still claims as her own.
Discover the fascinating landscapes and Dreamtime legends of The Kimberley. Circumnavigate New Zealand’s
Sub-Antarctic Islands. Spot the millions of seabirds and thousands of basking seals and sea lions in Russia’s
Far East. Immerse yourself in the exquisite rainforests of the Pacifi c Islands or Stone Age tribes of Sulawesi and
Papua New Guinea.
Aboard Silver Discoverer, you can explore these distant shores intimately and in depth — but with an array of
gilt-edged refi nements rarely seen in expedition travel.

ANTARCT ICA
For modern-day explorers, Antarctica represents the final frontier. Experience the stark beauty of the southern polar
region and its unique wildlife on an expedition cruise. With its strengthened hull, Silver Explorer is purpose-built for
adventure, pushing through ice floes to allow uninterrupted views of mighty glaciers, iceberg-strewn waters, sunbathing
seals and breaching whales. A fleet of Zodiacs allows plenty of on-shore adventures too. Observe the behaviour of
penguins in their natural habitat while experiencing this pristine frosted wilderness first-hand.

Experience the Arctic Circle’s awe-inspiring wonders. Our Arctic cruises venture into remote regions at the top
of the world in search of walrus, reindeer, seals, whales, seabirds and, of course, the mighty Polar bear. As we
glide past towering glaciers and snow-capped mountains under the midnight sun, learn of Viking legends and
whaling history. Only accessible during the brief summer thaw, this intriguing yet unforgettable land will reveal
nature's beauty and fragility.

With impassable winter ice floes, the Sea of Okhotsk north of Japan remains one of the world’s least explored
yet most ecologically intriguing seas. The outlying Kuril Islands are a haven for seabirds, fur seals and sea lions.
On the Kamchatka Peninsula, the world’s largest Brown bears hunt for salmon. This geothermal wonderland
is also home to volcanoes, geysers, thermal springs and boiling mud. Several expeditions continue to the
Aleutians and the Alaska and Kenai peninsulas — among North America’s most inaccessible places. Others
head to Japan’s wildlife-rich islands and coastal Siberia.

These two expedition experiences couldn’t be more climatically different.
In northwest Australia, explore the untamed Kimberley. under endless blue skies,
gaze upon thundering waterfalls, soaring cliffs and ancient rock art. Explore tidal
channels that are home to Saltwater crocodiles and the famed Barramundi.
In New Zealand’s rarely visited Sub-Antarctic Islands, the scenery is equally
dramatic. Visit all five island groups, each with its own distinct biodiversity. See a
rare Yellow-eyed penguin, admire a Wandering albatross launching into flight and
listen to a bellowing sea lion staking his territory.

MICRONES IA, MELANES IA & POLYNES IA
A trio of truly stunning island chains strung out over the Pacific,
each archipelago offers its own remarkable culture and vivid
colours. Yap in Micronesia, and Vanuatu and New Guinea’s
outer islands in Melanesia, are home to some of Oceania’s
most traditional people whose lives are centred on gardens,
reefs, ocean and ancestors. Experience their exuberant,
ceremonial hospitality. Polynesia, immortalised by the French
artist Paul Gauguin, is a true paradise with some of the bluest
waters on earth. Snorkel and dive coral gardens, home to
many colourful fish.

home to the Torajan people with their captivating villages, dramatic death
rituals and timeless traditions. With Indonesia considered the global epicentre
of marine biodiversity, the region is home to spectacular underwater wonders.
The Philippines is another underwater nirvana, containing not only coral reefs
and fascinating WWII wrecks but the Puerto Princesa underground river — one
of the “New Seven Wonders of Nature”.

GALÁPAGOS PRE- & POST-CRuISE LAND ADVENTuRES
Extend your Galápagos voyage with these Land Adventures. Offered before or after select voyages, these
excursions explore a region’s must-see destinations and include accommodation, porterage, transfers, sightseeing
and some meals.
lima, peru
amazon explorer
Pygmy marmosets, Howler monkeys, toucans — the
lowland forests of Peru’s Amazon Basin offer some of
the most exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities on
the planet. Journey to a destination where few travellers
have set foot. Travel in all-suite luxury aboard M/V
Aria, dining on perhaps the finest Amazonian-Peruvian
gourmet cuisine on the river. Learn about this amazing
ecosystem from expert naturalists as you cruise through
wild lands of unsurpassed beauty. This adventure also
includes an overnight stay and tour of Lima, Peru’s
colonial capital.
Six nights post-cruise
lake titicaca & puno
Journey into the Andes to Lake Titicaca, known as the
‘Sacred Waters of the Inca Empire’ and the highest
navigable lake in the world. Cruise to the floating
reed islands of the uros people with their centuries-
old way of life, and visit Taquile Island to admire the
ancient weaving traditions of the Quechua-speaking
Taquilenos. ‘Taquile and its Textile Art’ has been
proclaimed a “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible
Heritage of Humanity” by uNESCO. In Puno, visit the
Sillustani tombs, ingeniously designed chullpas (burial
towers) of the ancient Colla civilisation, before your
overnight and flight to Quito.
Four nights pre-cruise
machu picchu explorer
Begin your Galápagos expedition with the unmatched
splendour of Machu Picchu, the glorious ‘Lost City of
the Incas’ and one of the ‘New Seven Wonders of the
World’. Set high in the Peruvian Andes amidst craggy
peaks and billowing clouds, this spectacular monument
of human achievement lay undiscovered until 1911.
Tours, overnights and flights from Lima to beautiful Cusco
and stunning Quito, plus a scenic roundtrip journey in
Peru’s Vistadome train are included in this unforgettable
land programme.
Four nights pre-cruise Three nights post-cruise
machu picchu Grande explorer
Similar to Machu Picchu Explorer, this enhanced land
programme, however, features a journey to Machu
Picchu aboard the legendary Hiram Bingham, one of
the top 10 rail journeys in the world. Travel in luxury in
exquisitely and meticulously restored Pullman cars and
enjoy brunch with live music as you travel through the
dramatic Andean scenery of the urubamba Valley.
Stay overnight at the famed Sanctuary Lodge, the only
hotel adjacent to Machu Picchu, allowing you to spend
additional time to explore the ancient Inca citadel with
fewer tourists.
