Antarctica Expeditions 2024 | 2025

Behold the wonders of the White Continent and the wildly remote islands that dot the Southern Ocean: epic scenery, fascinating ice, and incredible wildlife. Two centuries after its discovery in 1820, Antarctica remains one of the most enigmatic destinations on the planet.
From the Antarctic Peninsula and the South Shetland Islands to South Georgia and the Falkland Islands, Silversea’s world-class expedition fleet travels deep into this fascinating part of the world with unparalleled expertise and extraordinary comfort. The pages that follow provide a snapshot of our 2024-2025 Antarctica season and we would be thrilled to take you into this icy wonderland on your next journey with us.
As you know, we are constantly evolving our ultra-luxury voyages, and thinking of new ways to accommodate your needs whilst travelling. With that in mind, we have introduced a new voyage-only, time-limited Essential fare available on selected voyages closer to sail date (see page 17 for details) offered in addition to our industry-leading Door-to-Door All-Inclusive fare and our flexible Port-to-Port All-Inclusive fare, the latter of which is now offered on all itineraries and combinable with your Venetian Society benefits.
We look forward to welcoming you back onboard for an expedition into the extraordinary!
Warmest personal regards,

Silversea Expeditions was founded in 2008 as the world’s first ultra-luxury expedition line. Today, our ice-class ships remain the only all-suite, all butler-serviced and truly all-inclusive expedition fleet exploring polar realms in extraordinary comfort.
On every Silversea Expedition voyage, you will enjoy complimentary, expert-led Zodiac landings (1-2 per day, weather depending), kayaking adventures and hiking excursions. A team of expedition experts is culled from the best of the best all over the world.
• An industry-leading staff-to-guest service ratio of almost 1:1 ensures your every need is met, including personal butler service for every suite delivering the most bespoke experience.
• Our all-suite ships are small by design; they can accommodate far more than the 100 to 137 suites found on our expedition vessels, which allows for unparalleled spaciousness.
• Immersive, personalised discovery with an experienced Expedition Team and a generous fleet of Zodiacs and kayaks on every ship.
As a Venetian Society member, you are amongst our greatest ambassadors – and for that we are eminently grateful. A personal recommendation from you establishes confidence among friends and family who have yet to travel with us. Your exclusive “Sail With Us” member benefit extends a $500 savings per suite to you and your new-to-Silversea friends, and you needn’t sail on the same voyage. You can invite up to 10 new-to-Silversea guests in a calendar year, and apply up to $2,000 of your referral savings to the booking of your choice.

With its awe-inspiring glaciers, soaring ice cathedrals, and fascinating wildlife that swoops, dives and waddles unafraid and unaware, the remote and remarkable wonders of Antarctica defy description, for they must be seen to be believed. Never has a destination had such a profound influence on all who are fortunate enough to experience it, especially when travelling in the bespoke luxury and expert care of a Silversea expedition voyage. Immersive, engaging, and revealing itineraries answer to the call of the wild, showcasing Antarctica in its purest, natural glory.
• See icebergs – both tabular and soaring – massive blue-hued glaciers, and rugged cliffs where seabirds make their home.
• Search for colonies of penguins – Adélie, chinstrap, gentoo, king –and pods of whales.
• Prepare for 1-2 landings per day on every expedition, regardless of itinerary, weather permitting.

Breathtaking in every direction
Extending from the northernmost reaches of the Antarctic mainland, an 800-mile-long snow-capped mountain range of ice and islands juts into the Weddell Sea. This is the Antarctic Peninsula, the most accessible part of the White Continent, and the Antarctica of your dreams. Here is where iconic tabular icebergs provide mesmerising vistas, and where seals, seabirds and penguins — from Adélie and emperor to chinstrap and gentoo — make their home along its spectacular coast. The catch-your-breath wonder of this pristine region is transformational and not to be missed.
• Witness the extraordinary beauty of ice in all its forms, from spectacular glaciers and monumental icebergs to pack ice, bergy bits and ice floes.
• Watch for humpback whales, seals, penguins and myriad birds, from petrels and terns to gulls and skuas.
• Embark on guided kayaking and hiking excursions.
