Creator's Key Takeaways

I decided to entrust Silversea with this huge sum of money as I've been on shorter Expedition cruises with them before, thought they did a good job

on this trip I discovered just what Silversea Expedition are doing well and not so well these days

it was absolutely one of the most magical and memorable experiences of my life and cruising career

I would find it difficult based on this to consider a different Expedition line again to Silversea

YouTube Video Description↓

Knowing that the expedition cruise I wanted to do would cost me the same as buying a new luxury car, I needed to make sure that the line I went with would deliver something special and make every dollar worth it. After much deliberating, I decided to entrust Silversea with this huge sum of money as I've been on shorter expedition cruises with them before, thought they did a good job, though I was apprehensive as the cost of getting it wrong was so enormous. On this trip, I discovered just what Silversea Expedition are doing well, and not so that well these days, as you will hear.
