The beautiful all-suite Silver Cloud was the inaugural vessel for Silversea Cruises. As such, this luxurious ship epitomizes everything that is Silversea. An intimate (16,800-ton) cruise ship, the 254-guest Silver Cloud was first renovated in 2012 and recently underwent a second major refurbishment in 2017 to become one of the biggest and most comfortable ice class vessels in expedition cruising with the highest space to guest and crew to guest ratio. A new ice-strengthened hull allows her to easily maneuver ice flows, while the sweeping decks and panoramic views provide you with the opportunity to catch the mesmerizing sight of frolicking penguins or whales jumping through the water. Silver Cloud now offers cruises to Africa, the Indian Ocean, Antarctica, the Arctic, Greenland, Canada, New England, the Caribbean, Central America, Northern Europe, the British Isles and South America.

Silver Cloud's guest capacity will be limited to a maximum of 200 when in polar waters, allowing for multiple daily shore excursions in small groups, so that all guests can explore at the same time. Equipped with 16 pristine Zodiacs© and a team of 17 to 19 expedition experts, Silver Cloud will feature 20 polar voyages in 2018. It is also the first Silversea ship to offer you five dining choices, featuring La Dame by Relais and Chateaux®.

Thanks to Silversea’s all-inclusive feature, cruises aboard Silver Cloud are of great value in the world of ultra-luxury cruising. Included in the price of all Silversea Cruises are gratuities, beverages (including fine wines, champagnes, spirits, soft drinks, bottled water, and specialty coffees), transportation into town, 24-hour room service, butler service and gourmet dining options (although some restaurants require a reservation fee).

80% of the accommodations on Silver Cloud have a private veranda. The suites aboard this ship are modernized, quite spacious (ranging in size from 240 to over 900-sq. feet) and are well-appointed with a variety of fantastic in-suite amenities, including Bvlgari® and European bath amenities, Pratesi® bed linens, a pillow menu and a refrigerator and bar that is replenished throughout the cruise. Select suites include Wi-Fi Internet access (a fee may apply). Anyone who sails on a Silver Cloud cruise will benefit from the service and attention of a butler, and with nearly one crew member for each passenger, Silversea is able to provide you with exemplary service from all of its staff members, who are trained by The Leading Hotel Schools of the World.

The main open-seating dining venue aboard Silver Cloud, The Restaurant, has gourmet menus with signature dishes that have been prepared exclusively for Silversea by Relais and Cháteaux®. La Terrazza is a casual, Italian á la carte venue that is open for a buffet-style breakfast and lunch, with indoor or al fresco dining on the outdoor terrace, and complimentary glasses of wine, of course. Seating is limited at La Terrazza for dinner, so reservations are recommended. The Grill allows you to enjoy open-air dining, all while cooking your own meats and fish over volcanic rocks. 24-hour room service is a convenient option that's available to all guests.

Ship Highlights

Enrichment and Exploration
A fundamental component of every Silver Cloud expedition cruise, the Silver Perspectives program includes lectures, presentations and workshops from world-renowned experts such as marine biologists, geologists and other professionals, to enrich your understanding of the destinations being visited in addition to your ability to explore them. On Silver Cloud, you can enjoy these programs in the Explorer Lounge, which features state-of-the-art technology that will livestream lectures straight to your suite. Silver Cloud sailings also include destination expeditions so you can truly immerse yourself in the amazing sights of the lands to which you travel. Cruise on a Zodiac© through the frigid fjords, hike across icy glaciers, soak your muscles in a steaming natural hot spring or witness the creatures of the land in their natural habitat on a truly unforgettable voyage.

The Zagara Spa
A great place to relax your mind and body while on a Silver Cloud cruise is the Zagara Spa. The spa offers a variety of therapies including energizing facials, refreshing body wraps and relaxing massages, all designed by beauty experts from the House of Elemis in London. Men's and women's steam rooms and saunas are available as well.

Photo Studio
Exclusive to Silver Cloud, the onboard photo studio affords aspiring photographers the opportunity to improve on their picture-taking abilities and learn new photography techniques. In the photo studio, you can take Masterclasses in editing as well as in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. There is also an editing suite where you can print your photos in different forms, such as postcards and A2 prints, on technologically-advanced printers (a printing fee will apply). Even if you only take pictures with your smartphone, you too can learn special techniques to get the most out of your phone’s camera.
