Silver Endeavour will depart Reykjavik on June 1 for nine journeys to the Arctic over the summer, with sailings ranging from 10 to 16 days. Several journeys can be combined for a total of 67 days of exploration between July 15 and September 19, allowing travellers to discover the region’s vast diversity during an extended sailing. The extended route will include thorough Greenland and the Canadian High Arctic explorations between Churchill (Manitoba) and Reykjavik. Calls to Hudson Bay and Baffin Island; a voyage to experience the best of the Northwest Passage in just ten days; a journey to Greenland’s spectacular Disko Bay, including an exploration of the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord; and an exploration of the Northeast Greenland National Park are among the highlights of Silver Endeavour’s 2024 Arctic voyages.
14 ANTARCTICA VOYAGES
Silver Endeavour will return to Antarctica on October 29, 2024, for 14 journeys ranging from six to twenty-one days. Travellers on a tight schedule can take advantage of Silversea’s Antarctica Bridge package, which involves travelling directly into the continent on European business-class flights and exploring the Antarctic Peninsula in only six days. Those looking to go further will enjoy a 15-day voyage from King George Island to Puerto Williams. The immersive voyage will depart on January 6, 2025, and will visit several locations on the Antarctic Peninsula, the Falkland Islands, and South Georgia.
