Silversea adds shorter cruise itineraries for spring 2013

Sample a luxury cruise in Europe or combine with a land stay

Cramped for time but want to see what all the hoopla is about a luxury cruise? Silversea has added six new cruise itineraries under seven nights from March until June. Whether you are already booked for a land visit or simply don’t have enough vacation time stashed away, it’s easy to try one of these shorter cruises. The six European cities where you can board a Silversea ship for a shorter cruise include: Hamburg, Barcelona, Rome, Lisbon, Monte Carlo and Southampton.

From Silversea’s president of the Americas, Ellen Bettridge, “Many travelers today have busy schedules that make it difficult to fit in time for an extended luxury cruise vacation, it’s important for us to offer options that cater to these consumers as well as those who have time for longer voyages.”
