Silversea Cruises' 2028 World Cruise is titled 'An Ode to the Moment.' This 132-day luxury voyage aboard the Silver Shadow will take travelers to 58 destinations across 29 countries and five continents.
An Ode to the Moment will depart from Miami on January 5 and conclude in Nice on May 16. The meticulously curated journey promises an immersive exploration of diverse cultures, histories, and landscapes, including visits to over 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The 2028 World Cruise itinerary is divided into nine thematic chapters, each offering unique experiences such as cultural immersions, wildlife encounters, and exclusive events, alongside optional overland tours for deeper discovery.
With a focus on slower, more meaningful travel, the cruise aims to provide guests with unparalleled access to both iconic landmarks and lesser-known destinations, all while enjoying Silversea’s signature luxury and personalized service.
