The expedition sector is predicted to grow by 30% over the next four years, and Silversea sees itself as spearheading developments with its 167-day World Expedition Cruise (30 January to 16 July 2021) on Silver Cloud, where prices start from £104,000pp.
“The World Expedition Cruise is a bucket list thing for many clients, and weve had a lot of excitement from the trade too,” Shanks says.
The planning for all Silverseas expeditions comes under Conrad Combrink, senior vice-president for expeditions and destination experiences.
“Classically, expedition cruises would have been about the Arctic and Antarctic, but we decided to see how you could connect more places with an expedition focus,” he says.

“We will make sure we are in all the right places at the best time of year too,” Combrink says, adding that onboard speakers will include explorers Tim Severin and Felicity Aston, the first person to cross Antarctica solo on skis.
