Silversea Expeditions Aboard Prince Albert II SM

Every journey is new and unique, every day unlike any that has come before. Journey beyond the Arctic Circle, venture into the Sea of Cortez, and explore the frozen wonderland of Antarctica. Itineraries are unstructured by design. Following only a tentative schedule allows for moment-by-moment flexibility. Stay longer at sites of particular interest, or make slight detours whenever weather, nature or mere curiosity dictates. ICE WALL, ANTARCTIC PENINSULA

Exploring the Earth: Top to Bottom Embark on a luxurious Silversea expedition to the best far-flung destinations in the world, aboard a ship destined to become world’s best in its class. Introducing Prince Albert II, a purpose-built expedition ship unlike any other. Designed specifically for navigating waters in some of the world’s most remote destinations, including both of Earth’s polar regions, the 6,072-ton vessel boasts a strengthened hull with the highest Lloyd’s Register ice-class notation (1A) for passenger ships. With eight Zodiac boats, her 132 privileged guests can visit even the most off-the-beaten path locations. Experience the thrill of a true expedition aboard Prince Albert II. Venture deep into regions where other vessels cannot go whilst enjoying a privileged lifestyle
