Cruises by Port - Silversea Voyager, Regent Voyager Cruises

By Anne Carpenter 6 June, 2023 2 mins read

A 5-star experience is what I look for when I am searching for a cruise. This is why I opted to cruise with Silversea Cruises, which is one of the world's best-rated cruise lines. They impressed me with their exceptional service and excellent excursions.

Silversea Cruises' commitment to customer service is one of their most remarkable features. The crew was professional and highly trained and responded promptly to my requests and questions. They were also able to provide me with my choice of alcoholic beverages. A folder with my next-day itinerary was also given to me by the crew. On every excursion, I was assigned to a member the crew. This made my experience onboard the ship so much more enjoyable.

Silversea Cruises' concierge desk is one of the best features. It arranges in-port experiences such as Zodiac tours or snorkeling expeditions. Additionally, there are lounges around a single swimming pool, which are the perfect place to relax after a day of activities. A three-day post-cruise tour is also offered, which I am looking forward to.

The SS Voyager has beautiful decor and modern furnishings. A good cruise is able to meet the needs of its passengers, which I believe is the true test. I enjoyed the ship's colour scheme, which was pleasant to the eyes. The ship's ambiance is similar to any other cruise line. However, I was surprised to hear how much noise the connecting rooms made.

Another impressive cruise vessel is the Regent Voyager. It is the largest cruise ship in the fleet and has many unique features. Its most luxurious suites include a whirlpool on their balcony, which is unique for any cruise line. It also features an open staircase and luxurious decor. You can also enjoy a jazz bar and other perks for passengers.

There are however some things the cruise line fails to do well. For instance, they don't provide a guided tour of Miami for in-transit guests. It is also too crowded on the ship's back deck. The smoking lounge should be further away from the gym and pool. Also, the ship's glass elevators look amazing.

Silversea Cruises was an enjoyable cruise. But, I'm not sure that I'll sail again with them. I would like to have more choices in terms of food. The ship's food was okay, but not as good or as those on the other ships I have travelled on. Furthermore, I was unable to get a tour of Miami from the cruise director. Silversea is a five-star resort that I recommend to all travelers looking for an exceptional experience. You might also consider the cruise line as the best place to take a romantic getaway.
