Top-of-the-line company, all-suite, elegant small cruise ships sailing worldwide. The cruise line is targeting the ultra luxury segment of the market. Passengers are very similar to those on Seabourn Cruise Line, Radisson Seven Seas Cruises and Crystal Cruises - very high income, refined and sophisticated travelers, they know and understand very well quality, they have very high expectations and rough judgment. Most of them are North Americans, plus a solid European presence, particularly British and Germans. Owned by the Lefebvre family of Rome (former owners of Sitmar Cruises) Silversea Cruises has shown clearly that it belongs with the best of them in the ultra-luxury cruise market. Although it is not an inexpensive travel product Silversea's all-inclusive pricing offers guests value for money. Gratuities, port charges and alcoholic beverages (including wine at lunch and dinner) are folded into the cost of the cruise. The company even provides one complimentary shore excursion on many of its voyages. That outing is called the Silversea Experience and it invariably features something other than the run-of-the-mill tour ashore. In 2005 the Fort Lauderdale-based cruise line introduced a new option for its passengers called Personalized Voyages. In essence the plan allows cruisers to choose their own embarkation/disembarkation ports, regardless of the cruise lengths and itineraries shown in the brochure. Each of the four cruise ships is the result of the work of two different Italian shipyards. The hulls were laid in the Francesco Visentini yard near Trieste after which they were floated and towed to their final outfitting in the T. Mariotti yard in Genoa. All were designed by the Oslo, Norway-based marine architect team of Petter Yran and Bjorn Storbraaten. The ships' officers are Italian and the service staff international. Silversea Cruises is owned by the Lefebvre Family of Rome, Italy.

On the employment side - the same story as Seabourn Cruises, Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Crystal Cruises.
Requirements are very high when it comes to selecting new employees. Whoever has the qualities and experience needed though, will enjoy the highest salaries, the most prestigious working conditions and the most interesting itineraries in the cruise industry. As the other lieder in the ultra-luxury cruise market (Crystal Cruises, Radisson Seven Seas Cruises and Seabourn Cruise Line), Silversea Cruises is one of the most highly recommended for employment.
