Stressfree cruising: my Silversea experience

Cruising is a great way to see the world and do it both in style and comfort. I do have to say that a lot of people still regard it as something for the newly wed, over fed and nearly dead. Thankfully even we in Estonia can see a decline in that mentality. Still, finding your own from the large number of cruise companies, ships and routes can be a bit daunting. This time, I would like to make your life a tad bit easier with talking about one of the best in the business - Silversea Cruises.

So, a few months ago, I was lucky enough to be a part of a group of travel agents who got to experience the quality and style of Silversea. Our group consisted of travel professionals from the Baltic States and Scandinavia. I have to say that this one was one of the best familiarization trips that I have been on until now.

Silver Whisper by Silversea
We were treated to a 5 day cruise onboard the beautiful Silver Whisper which accommodates 382 passengers and 302 crew members. From these numbers alone, it's clear that the service onboard Silversea is very personal.

Being honest, I have to say that this was my first ever cruise and some might say that this was not a good choice. Some might also say that the only way now is down, but I don't take is as such. This gives me a good perspective of how high you can go and therefore review the other cruise lines a bit better. We'll see...
