Why we like this ship
The best thing about the Silver Explorer is the way in which it combines the experience of a true luxury cruise with all the frills, with an expeditionary experience deep into remote corners of the fjords by zodiac boat. You have all amenities at your disposal on board: restaurants, bars, beauty salons, fitness centre and lounges, as well as fine dining and incredibly comfortable suites.
Swoop says
If you are after a really luxurious experience exploring not only the Southern Fjords, but further north to Valparaiso and Buenos Aires, then the Silver Explorer is your ticket there! You'll hop off at numerous destinations by day, and enjoy fine dining, spa, and fitness suites by night.
