Silversea’s Silver Whisper will set sail from the United States in January 2020 before reaching Europe in May

If a typical seven-day cruise that stops at only a few ports is not appealing, then maybe a new ultra-luxurious world cruise floats your boat.

In 2020, Silversea is set to kick off a 140-day cruise making stops on all seven continents – for US$62,000 to US$240,000 per person.

Dubbed “Legends of Cruising,” the trip will begin for up to 382 guests in the United States in January 2020, and stop at 62 ports in at least 32 countries before ending up in Europe in May.

“Unlike any other world cruise ever conceived, Legends of Cruising takes you on a journey that lets you set foot on all seven continents,” syas Silversea.

“There are those who believe they belong to the 1 per cent and those who actually do. And then there are those who are part of the 1 per cent of the 1 per cent.”

Here’s a look at the super-luxe Silver Whisper, which Silversea says is the “world-cruisers preferred ship” with “the amenities of a grand resort” and “the charms of a stylish boutique hotel”.

Silver Whisper’s opulent main restaurant serves regional specialities depending on the ship’s destination.
