Silversea Sets Sail on 55-Day Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025

Silversea has officially embarked on its Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025—a 55-day immersion through iconic cities such as Venice, Dubrovnik, and Naples, as well as hidden gems like Kotor and Trapani. From September 24 to November 18, Silver Spirit will connect guests with 45 destinations across 12 countries.

“Our 45-destination Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025 gives our guests the rare luxury of time to experience this iconic region like a local,” Bert Hernandez, president, Silversea, said in a statement. “This journey has been thoughtfully curated for travelers who may have explored the Mediterranean before, but value a deeper understanding of its rich cultural heritage. This enriching voyage will enable them to uncover the region’s hidden gems, savor its diverse culinary traditions, and connect with its people in meaningful ways.”

The Grand Voyage Mediterranean 2025 onboard Silver Spirit begins with a 12-day exploration of the Iberian Peninsula, sailing from Lisbon to Gibraltar and through Spain’s coastal cities—including Malaga, Ibiza, and Valencia. Guests will then journey to the cultural wonders of Monaco and Italy, with explorations of Naples and the Amalfi Coast. From there, the itinerary leads to Croatia’s Adriatic jewels and toward the islands of Greece. The voyage concludes with a return to Italy and Spain, ending in the architectural wonder of Barcelona, home to Gaudí’s Sagrada Família.

Each of these destinations presents an opportunity for cultural experiences, including highly immersive culinary offerings, private tours, and bespoke adventures. Guests seeking a taste of the region can take part in a S.A.L.T. Experience featuring a blend of Greek and Venetian influences in the island of Corfu, Greece, exploring the products, spices, and herbs unique to the area. Those journeying to witness the rich landscape, can hike through the Natural Park of Ses Salines, one of the most pristine areas of Ibiza, Spain, where numerous species of birds nest.

A Trio of Exclusive Events To Remember

Guests will also take part in three exclusive events—unique to this Grand Voyage—including:

Secrets of Mare Nostrum (Monaco): On October 5, an exclusive Grand Voyage event will unfold in the French Riviera’s three-Michelin-starred restaurant, Mirazur, with a five-course meal highlighting the culinary offerings of the region.

An Aegean Soirée (Rhodes, Greece): On October 27, guests will experience an evening in the town of Rhodes, considered one of Europe’s most preserved medieval towns.
