Silversea is setting sail on its 139- “South Side Story” voyage departing from Sydney, Australia with the Silver Shadow this week. This marks the first time that Silversea will depart on a world cruise from the Southern Hempishere, according to a press release.
“All the world’s a stage, and, in this arts-inspired tale, our discerning guests will discover the authentic beauty and heritage of 66 destinations in 34 countries—each with its own unique story to tell—as we journey from Australia to Fort Lauderdale over 139 days,” said Barbara Muckermann, president and CEO, Silversea Cruises.
“Every detail of our guests’ journeys has been carefully considered and enhanced, from the in-flight experience to the airport lounges and entertainment: arriving in Sydney on business-class flights with additional cabin crew to ensure exceptional service, guests will enjoy bespoke pampering with tailored menus, welcome canapés, vintage champagne, and specially embroidered linen. Each of the special events we have planned is entirely bespoke, too.”
The Silver Shadow will travel from the South Seas to the Amazoncalling in 66 destinations in 34 countries across five continents.
