| Barcelona | Friday, Aug 29, 2025 | Friday, Aug 29, 2025 |
| Barcelona, the self-confident and progressive capital of Spain, is a tremendous place to be. Though it boasts outstanding Gothic and Art Nouveau buildings, and some great museums – most notably those dedicated to Picasso and Catalan art – it is above all a place where there's enjoyment simply in walking the streets, stopping in at bars and cafés, drinking in the atmosphere. A thriving port and the most prosperous commercial centre in Spain, it has a sophistication and cultural dynamism way ahead of the rest of the country. In part this reflects the city's proximity to France, whose influence is apparent in the elegant boulevards and imaginative cooking. But Barcelona has also evolved an individual and eclectic cultural identity, most perfectly and eccentrically expressed in the architecture of Antoni GaudÃ. Scattered as Barcelona's main sights may be, the greatest concentration of interest is around the old town (La Ciutat Vella). These cramped streets above the harbor are easily manageable, and far more enjoyable, on foot. Start, as everyone else does, with the Ramblas. | ||
| Valencia | Saturday, Aug 30, 2025 | Saturday, Aug 30, 2025 |
| Valencia is one of the biggest, liveliest cities in Spain. It is located at the Mediterranean sea with beaches right in its heart that offer every kind of sports. With its active nightlife and various cultural offerings, Valencia is one of the most dynamic cities in Spain. One of the most famous buildings in Valencia is the Cathedral and its tower named, "El Miquelet" (Little Michael) which was built between 1381 and 1424. Try Spain's most famous food right where it was born: "Paella Valenciana". Valencia is the city where "El Cid", Spain's national hero, fought against the Moors, and popular festivals in the city and many villages around still remind of this epoch. | ||
| Palma de Mallorca | Sunday, Aug 31, 2025 | Sunday, Aug 31, 2025 |
| The Balearics are comprised of 16 islands; the three principal ones are Mallorca, Ibiza and Menorca. Lying just 60 miles off the Spanish mainland, the islands’ lush and rugged landscape combined with an extremely mild, sunny climate prove irresistible. The Balearics boast cosmopolitan resorts with lively nightlife and plenty of sports activities. Palma de Majorca is the capital of the archipelago. A cosmopolitan city with sophisticated shops and restaurants, it also offers buildings of spectacular Moorish and gothic architecture. Museo de Mallorca housed in the Palacio Ayamans boasts an interesting collection of Moorish, medieval and 18th- to 19th-century art. Those who wish to explore the northern end of the island will enjoy the dramatic land and seascape of Cabo Formentor at the end of a long, narrow peninsula. A winding road with magnificent views leads to the luxury Hotel Formentor, beautifully situated above the bay. The lighthouse of Cabo Formentor is the most northerly point on Majorca. | ||

| Barcelona (Tarragona) | Tuesday, Sep 02, 2025 | Tuesday, Sep 02, 2025 |
| Tarragona is a port on the Mediterranean Sea on the Catalonian coast to the southwest of Barcelona. The monks of the Grande Chartreuse established their liqueur distillery here in 1903, when they were forced to leave France. The city's archaeological museum has an outstanding collection of Roman statuary. The remains of a Roman amphitheatre and defensive walls are in the city, and a two-tiered Roman aqueduct is nearby. The Romanesque cathedral, construction of which was begun in the 12th century, is famous for its Gothic facade. Nearby are the beaches and resorts of the Costa Dorado. | ||

| Palamos | Thursday, Sep 04, 2025 | Thursday, Sep 04, 2025 |
| Costa Brava means wild coast. Though the scenery is strikingly dramatic, below the rugged headlands and rocky promontories you'll find quiet, beach bordered bays rimmed by piney woodlands. Palamos is the southernmost of a series of small isolated ports that cling like oysters to tiny harbors set along Catalunya's northern coast. The "old" part of Palamos was founded in 1277. Palamos is a favorite destination for yachts that vie for space with local fishing boats. | ||
| Provence (Marseille) | Friday, Sep 05, 2025 | Friday, Sep 05, 2025 |
| Marseille is a vibrant, cosmopolitan port in the Provence region of France. Craggy mountains provide a spectacular backdrop. As a Mediterranean melting pot, the port virtually rubs shoulders with intimate, picturesque old harbor, the Vieux Port. Packed with watercrafts, this is the heart of Marseille. Two fortresses guard the harbor: Fort Saint Nicolas and Fort Saint Jean. Several vantage points offer spectacular views, including the impressive Basilica Notre Dame de la Garde - a prominent landmark overlooking the city that is crowned by a monumental, gilded statue of Virgin Mary. Marseille boasts numerous fine museums well worth a visit. Sitting at one of the many outside cafes or strolling the streets of the old port area lets you experience the unpretentious charm of this city. Other sights include Chateau d'If - a 16th century fortress-turned-prison; Basilica St-Victor - Marseille's oldest church with the appearance of a fortress; and La Canebiere - a broad boulevard with everything from hotels to cafes and shops. | ||
| St. Tropez | Saturday, Sep 06, 2025 | Saturday, Sep 06, 2025 |
| Glitz and glamour are the two key-words to St. Tropez’s reputation. Set like a jewel in the crown of the Mediterranean, St. Tropez has long been a mecca to artists and the summer vacationers alike, who are drawn to the picturesque setting and the old-world charm of the town’s architecture. In the 1920s, St. Tropez became a fashion headquarters and an international playground, an association that has hardly been dispelled with time. | ||
| Monte Carlo | Sunday, Sep 07, 2025 | Sunday, Sep 07, 2025 |
| Monaco is famous as Côte d’Azur’s playground. With spacious beaches, elegant hotels and lively nightlife, this tiny domain is a jet set favorite and home to some of the world's most expensive real estate. In addition to luxury hotels and beautiful beaches, Monaco is noted for mild climate and magnificent scenery. Monaco and Monte Carlo rank high on every visitor’s must-see list. Monaco-Ville is the old city and seat of Monaco’s government. The 19th-century Romanesque cathedral Prince's Palace contains impressive works of art and the tomb of Princess Grace, while the Parliament building and Oceanographic Museum, under the auspices of the Jacques Cousteau Society, offer additional sights. Monte Carlo spells sophistication, elegance, and glamour. Every year the rich and famous gather here to bask in the sun, gamble at the world’s most opulent casino and attend spectacular parties. The most splendid hotels, several fine theaters, museums and excellent restaurants cater to the elite. Nothing typifies more the elegant lifestyle of the Côte d’Azur than glamorous Monte Carlo. | ||

Submit Your Own Review!Beautiful new ship. Wonderful food, service and entertainment
Pros: Beautiful new ship. Wonderful food, service and entertainment
Cons: None
Review: The best cruise line we have ever experienced. Every need was taken care of. There were so many options for dining, learning, entertainment with countless bars and seating areas. Thanks to our travel agent, Ken Heit, for setting it up and traveling with us.
Food and destinations and overall service on board
Pros: Food and destinations and overall service on board
Cons: Excursions could have been better managed
Review: While Carnaval in Rio was great, the excursion management was poor. In another port, the tenders were not well scheduled The food was simply fantastic. All, but 2, were included. The S.A.L.T. dinner was pricey, but was amazing. The Japanese restaurant at night was also a culinary delight. And the included restaurants had wonderful food including some of the best lobster you can find. And each night for “Happy Hour” in La Dolce Vita Lounge, they had wonderful appetizers. The overall service was great and we had a regular suite
The staff is amazing! The food was also excellent and the new ship design is brilliant.
Pros: The staff is amazing! The food was also excellent and the new ship design is brilliant.
Cons: Silversea is cutting costs from eliminating high end liquor brands to cheap toilet paper.
Review: The included itineraries are not worth taking. It's better to venture out on your own when the itinerary includes loading as many people on buses to all make the same stops. It was not pleasant.
The ship is one of the finest ships I've ever sailed on. Beautiful suites with fabulous storage for longer cruises, and a lovely selection of dining venues.
Pros: The ship is one of the finest ships I've ever sailed on. Beautiful suites with fabulous storage for longer cruises, and a lovely selection of dining venues.
Cons: Honestly cannot think of one con!
Review: Selection of dining venues, guest lecturers, shipboard activities, and amazing entertainment are just some of the highlights I experiences on the Silversea Ray!
New ship with new amazing amenities and exceptional service. Newest, cleanest and nicest ship I have been on.
Pros: New ship with new amazing amenities and exceptional service. Newest, cleanest and nicest ship I have been on.
Cons: Entertainment was very good about half the time and not so good the other half. We like "sea days" but felt there could have been more activity options available for guests for the "sea days". Stateroom bathrooms are huge along with the shower, but the fixtures in the shower could be better (ie: hand held sprayer did not attach to the wall very well so sometimes the sprayer was hard to control)
Review:
Suites, Food, Tours, Service, SALT concept
Pros: Suites, Food, Tours, Service, SALT concept
Cons: All dining at night is sit down, would be nice to have less casual grab and go option. It takes a moment to understand the symmetrical layout of cabins, it can be easy to get turned around.
Review: Silversea has really hit a home run with the Ray, it is an impressive and well thought out ship. The size, layout and amenities in the Suites is truly impressive....the bathrooms in particular are so large with drawers to put things in, a large mirror and vanity and great showers. The bedding was comfortable and the lounge area and desk/mini bar plus the balcony was all very spacious and comfortable. The variety of dining was perfect....some required or allowed pre booking, while others you just walked up to, it all worked well overall and we had not issues going to all the restaurants we wanted to. The SALT kitchen and special Chefs dinner at SALT were a must do, the cost is well worth it and it was one of the most memorable parts of our cruise. The SALT concept on the tours was also a highlight, those options really stood out and were again worth the added cost. The open spaces on deck, chairs and lounging areas plus the pool and one outdoor jacuzzi were also very nice...plenty of room and very comfortable. It is always the staff onboard that can make or break a trip and for Silversea they really know how to deliver it all....smiles from all the waiters and the entire staff made us all feel appreciated and valued. The feel of this ship is elegant but not stuffy, the decor is classy but not too much bling...loved it and cant wait to get back onboard!
Appearance, food, cabins, crew, open space, entertainment
Pros: Appearance, food, cabins, crew, open space, entertainment
Cons: Lack of reservations for speacialty dining areas. No evening casual dining, such as buffet. The Deck Plan should be more easily accessible on the app. Better signage throughout the ship and in each suite of the Deck Plan would also be helpful. There are too many tables in buffet restaurant, making it very difficult to walk between them when the restaurant is full.
Review: The new Silver Ray is beautiful beyond words. Food great. Cabins wonderful. Some negatives below.
Beautiful and well designed ship with outstanding service, food, lounges and musicians. Wide variety of restaurants and foods with S.A.L.T. serving foods and wines from the very regions you are visiting. Menu changes nearly every day so you could go just to that one restaurant and have multiple new options on a daily basis. The Silver Note is a very small ( capacity 45) venue that has small plates, great cocktails and a nightly jazz combo or cabaret singer. The cabins are well appointed each with a butler that will set up reservations for dining, take care of your laundry and set up meals in your suite. The art, interior decorating and layout is the best of any ship we have ever been on. The crew is also the best in the world.

Cons: Only issue is reservations in the Silver Note can be very difficult due to the small and intimate nature of the room. So book early.
Review: I would travel on this ship every single time we cruise if possible.
The staff, service and design of the ship. The food is very good with many different restaurants to choose from.
Pros: The staff, service and design of the ship. The food is very good with many different restaurants to choose from.
Cons: The Marquee restaurant is an open-air venue that was very hot during August in the Adriatic
Review:
Staff, shore excursions, food, cabin quality
Pros: Staff, shore excursions, food, cabin quality
Cons: Some newer crew that need more experience, late 10pm entertainment start times
Review:
Beautiful suites and public spaces with an amazing staff!
Pros: Beautiful suites and public spaces with an amazing staff!
Cons: Extra charge for specialty restaurants may not be well valued for the price
Review: For me, 99% of a good cruise is the staff, and the Siver Ray gets 5 stars! Ship is beautiful everywhere, so 5 stars! Food was excellent most of the time, and when they missed the mark for my personal taste, they changed it! So back to 5 stars! We loved Ester, the singer in Silver Note, so we were there every night, so can't comment on the other entertainment. I peeked at the pool a few times and it was not my scene, but this is a very personal opinion. I have a pool at home and I like a neat and tidy pool area, which is probably not possible on most cruises! This is more of a passenger issue but if Silversea is listening...extra attendants at the pool that act like waiters that straighten up after each napkin (or towel by the pool) is used at every lounge chair would be nice...but that might be asking too much!
every feature was first-rate
Pros: every feature was first-rate
Cons: none
Review: Santorini has become too crowded to be a worthwhile stop. Felt like I was on a sidewalk in Manhattan at rush hour - all day
