As the world continues to evaluate the situation to determine when they will be ready to get back to the world of travel, we are seeing an attraction toward small cruise ships. Enter Silversea’s Silver Moon. Simply a beautiful option on every level. Delivered in October 2020, Silver Moon pushes the boundaries of ultra-luxury, immersive travel as one of the best ship in her class.

Taking inspiration from her sister ship, Silver Muse, Silver Moon maintains the small-ship intimacy and spacious all-suite accommodations that are hallmarks of the Silversea experience, while bringing elements of innovation and an array of enhancements. With fewer than 300 suites, a personalized service, and a crew-to-guest ratio of almost 1:1, Silver Moon offers unparalleled levels of comfort and physical distancing to ensure that you will be traveling in unwavering confidence.

Among her eight distinct restaurant concepts is the new S.A.L.T. Kitchen, which will serve regionally inspired cuisine as one of three new venues to comprise Silversea’s new S.A.L.T. program. Elsewhere, guests will continue their culinary discovery of the Eastern Mediterranean’s richest food and drink cultures in the S.A.L.T. Bar and the S.A.L.T. Lab—the former of which will serve guests cocktails, spirits and other drinks inspired by the visited destination, while the latter is a test kitchen that will enable guests to get hands-on with the best ingredients from the region.

We always love the localized travel and culinary experiences at LuxeGetaways, so this newest offering from Silversea is exciting on so many different levels.

The Silver Moon | Where will she go?

During her inaugural season, Silversea’s new flagship Silver Moon will take you deep into the Eastern Mediterranean, calling in many of the region’s most beautiful destinations. To protect your health and safety, you will only be allowed to leave the ship on Silversea’s verified shore excursions which will be included in the fare—one included shore experience per day, from a selection in each port—with premium verified shore experiences available at an additional charge. This offers you the possibility of combining voyages for extended exploration, the new collection includes the following sample itineraries…

The Silver Moon | Piraeus (Athens) to Piraeus (Athens) – June 18-28

Silver Moon’s maiden voyage will depart Piraeus (Athens) on June 18, calling in some of Greece’s and Cyprus’ most beautiful destinations, including Syros, Paros, Patmos, Rhodes, Limassol, Heraklion, and Mykonos, before returning to Piraeus (Athens) on June 28. In Limassol, the ancient grandeur of Cyprus will come alive as guests discover Petra tou Romiou, or ‘Aphrodite’s Rock’, the breathtaking mosaics of Paphos at the House of Dionysos, and the 3rd-century Tomb of the Kings. A verified shore experience in Rhodes will unlock the destination’s medieval past, with travelers stepping back in time in the walled Old City, the Palace of the Grand Masters, the Avenue of the Knights, and the Archaeological Museum, among other mesmerizing highlights.

Two days at sea will enable guests to discover the remarkable enrichments aboard Silver Moon, including those unlocked through the new S.A.L.T. program, which will take guests deeper into each destination by showcasing the most engaging stories around food and drink. Silversea’s President’s Ambassador to the Venetian Society, Fernando Barroso de Oliveira, will accompany guests on this momentous voyage, gladly reconnecting with the Silversea family.

This cruise is a perfect melting pot of history, tradition and gorgeous sun-kissed beaches. Leaving Athens in your wake, enjoy a full day at sea as you sail towards the rich Roman history of Cyprus.
