Silversea Cruises to relaunch Asian...

Four Silversea ships will sail in Asia from December to May

Silversea Cruises has confirmed its highly anticipated return to Asia, with four ships – Silver Shadow, Silver Whisper, Silver Spirit and Silver Muse – all scheduled to sail in the region between December 2022 and May 2023.

The intimate 596-guest Silver Muse will be the cruise line’s first ship to sail in Asia since March 2020 when she departs Singapore on 2 December 2022.

Highlights of Silversea’s season will include calls in Sri Lanka, Hong Kong and Vietnam, among others, combining opportunities for deep travel to both iconic cities as well as lesser-visited destinations.

Commenting on the news, says Silversea Cruises chief commercial officer Barbara Muckermann said: “We are delighted to confirm our return to Asia from December 2022, offering guests the luxury of choice with four ships sailing in the region. Asia has long constituted an important sailing region for Silversea Cruises and our guests are eager to return to this enriching, rewarding continent with us.

"With convenient departures, many overnight calls, and late departures maximising guests’ opportunities to experience the soul of each destination, our upcoming Asia season represents one of the final pillars in our global return to service.”

Silversea’s upcoming Asia season comprises 25 voyages ranging from 10 to 20 days. Guests will be immersed into Asia’s varying cultures and landscapes, discovering the continent’s most enriching experiences and engaging with local communities.
