Silver Shadow
Silver Shadow embodies the classic Silversea style: 194 suites, 382 guests, butler service as standard. A ship that proves true luxury does not depend on size but on the ratio of crew to guests.
In the Mediterranean, Silver Shadow reaches ports closed to the larger ships of the fleet - a strength that counts particularly on Mediterranean routes.
