The Silver Wind

Some places don't just change your view; they change you. Silver Wind pairs the calm of a small luxury ship with the reach of an expedition vessel, carrying 274 guests to Antarctica.

Refitted in 2021 with an ice-strengthened hull, she moves between polar waters and quieter ports with ease. After a day ashore, spacious suites and attentive service welcome you back, and four restaurants give each evening its own pace.

With 24 Zodiacs and 14 kayaks, there is one Zodiac for every 11 guests, so landings and Zodiac cruises happen in small groups. Silver Wind brings you close to the ice and gives you somewhere quietly comfortable to return to.

HIGHLIGHTS

Silver Wind offers a close, personal style of expedition cruising, with a 1:11 Zodiac-to-guest ratio and an expert team that opens up the remote and the remarkable.

Antarctica Cruise was brilliant in organising

Antarctica Cruise was brilliant in organising a cruise for my father and I to Antarctica - Nico was extremely knowledgeable and experienced, listened to what we were looking for and proposed an excellent cruise with options to choose from - and since he has extensive experience in this area we knew we were in good hands - the cruise was special to share with my father - words cannot describe how incredible this experience was - and something I will hold with me for the rest of my life. Thank you!

A Fantastic Experience

This bucket list of mine has well and truly been ticked off…thanks to the great work of Alicia James and her team for making it possible. It didn’t matter what time of the day or night, if I had a problem or question Alicia would handle it with professionalism and good humour. Thanks for all your support…it was a fantastic experience for me to step on my 7th continent…let us all preserve this wonderland.

Looking forward to an Arctic cruise on the World Traveller.

We recently did an Antarctica cruise on the World Traveller Atlas Ocean Voyages and it was spectacular. We enjoyed many land excursions by Zodiacs. The boat was luxurious, the expedition crew were very passionate about their experiences and the other staff members were brilliant. We would not have experienced all this without the expert knowledge of Ben, Sam and Alicia. They always responded with answers to our queries in a prompt manner. Highly recommend them and we are looking forward to an Arctic cruise on the World Traveller.
