Overview

We take you to some of the planet’s most remote regions and show them to you intimately. Our cruises are for the curious traveller who longs to see an orang-utan in the wild or what lies behind the next mountain ridge. But it’s not just about wildlife or mountains. It’s about immersing yourself in the culture, landscape and habitat of a region with the help of experts who can illuminate your destination. Our expedition ships sail to all seven continents so that you can experience everything from the lush rainforests of the equatorial Pacific to the polar extremes at the tip or toe of the world. Explore pelagic wonderlands, admire volcanic plateaus gushing with geysers, or enter the realm of the Polar Bear. But no matter where you go, you’ll enjoy a uniquely immersive experience, expanding your global perspective and prompting you to re-evaluate what really matters. And rest assured- no creature comfort will be denied on an expedition cruise with Silversea.

Silversea Expeditions don’t just bring you to a place; they bring you face-to-face with all that makes a destination worth visiting. So, in somewhere as diverse as The Kimberley, this means immersive days out in Zodiacs and days spent exploring the rich history of the region. From scanning the skies for Ospreys and Peregrine Falcons to the humbling experience of approaching the magnificent King George Falls, we guarantee that you will take home memories that you will remember for years to come.

What our clients say

Dear Veronica and Ross, Thanks for this email, you got in first as I was going to send you an email this morning once we had settled back into ‘real’ life. Peter and I want to thank you Ross for recommending the Scenic Eclipse II and to thank you Veronica for your support in preparing for the trip. What can we say other than it was perfection, a life altering and mind blowing experience from beginning to end. I am not even sure where to start in describing our holiday, from the moment we arrived in Broome to the moment we stepped off the yacht in Darwin, everything was incredible. The Scenic 11 is absolutely world class and beyond, and as you said right up front Ross, the cabins and verandahs were spacious and uber luxurious and exquisitely appointed. The spa /sauna facilities were world class, Peter spent a lot of relaxing time there and kept remarking on how incredible the whole set up was. I totally agree with him. The gym was amazing too. The food is beyond anything we could have anticipated, it was the best we have eaten anywhere on our travels, both here and overseas. The choice of restaurants, the level of service, the food itself ( the sushi, the sashimi, the oysters, the lobster and I could go on and on) the settings of each restaurant, the wines and drinks. The bar itself is a work of art – the selection was world class again. And the barmen were world class too. Amongst all these highlights however for us, the defining feature was the Scenic staff, the crew and the incredible Discovery Team. Each and every one of them was a standout, their attention to detail, their delight in their work, their genuine interaction with the guests was totally amazing. This trip has changed us both – we were humbled by the scenery of the wild and wonderful Kimberley region, it has to be seen to be believed ( and from the air too – the helicopter ride was another highlight) Out trip will remain with us for a very long time. thanks to you both again – we will be back on the Scenic 11 again.

Peter & Michelle – NSW – June 2024

The Scenic Eclipse II experience was magnificent, the Kimberly is a must do trip and I can’t think of a better way to do it. Thank you to everyone at Luxury Escapes for a seamless experience.

Jan & Greg, – VIC- June 2024

Hi Veronica Thanks We had a amazing time on the cruise I’m sad it’s over .The 10 days just flew by

Patricia and Gary, QLD – June 2024

Well, it has been wonderful! We just loved Scenic Eclipse II. You were so right in suggesting we go on that ship, Ross. Everything was perfect – cabin, food, drinks, zodiac adventures but mostly the wonderfully friendly staff in all parts of the ship. We ended up doing four(!!!!) Helicopter flights, all wonderful. The Willy Creek Pearl Farm we had pre booked. Then we did 3 sightseeing trips. The two pilots were so obliging and informative. Peter declined doing a fishing trip as he was wondering how he would manage the terrain.

Sue and Hans, -NSW- June 2024

"Thanks so much for your help with our trip. Jim and Ihad the most incredible time-not to mention the fishing hat and photo’s we sent. It onlytook a day before thinking of you as we realised what you said about our room versusothers-that really added to the trip for us. It was so nice knowing how passionate you wereand that you were looking out for our interest-including Jim’s fishing-all adding up to itcoming together so well. Until our next trip, take care."

Jim Liz – Toowong, QLD
