Silver Explorer

(132 Passengers)

Embark on a luxurious cruise aboard the Silver Explorer (formerly the Prince Albert II) — a purpose-built expedition ship with the intimate onboard ambience of a private yacht. 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 a Lloyd’s Register ice-class notation (1A) for passenger ships. With a fleet of Zodiac boats, her 132 privileged guests can visit even the most off-the-beaten path locations. Experience the thrill of a true expedition. Venture deep into regions where most other ships cannot go while enjoying a privileged lifestyle that is simply second-to-none.

Onboard you will find the camaraderie of discerning world-travellers, and many special amenities usually found only on
larger ships, including all ocean-view accomodation with private bath, a spacious library with an Internet café, boutique
shopping, a full-service spa, beauty salon, fitness centre, live evening entertainment and two top-deck whirlpools. The
Silver Explorer even features The Humidor where connoisseurs can enjoy the finest cigars and cognacs — a diversion
offered by no other expedition ship.
