Silver Explorer to visit Cuba on “Jewels of the Caribbean” voyage
In amongst the amazing itineraries that have been launched by Silversea Cruises for 2015, there is one in particular that has really captured my imagination. Silver Explorers’ cruise of Cuba, titled Jewels of the Caribbean Sea, is perhaps one of the most exciting cruise itineraries I have ever seen.
Lasting a duration of 15 days, this stunning voyage departs in September 2015 and offers guests the opportunity to spend 5 days in Cuba while also visiting the Bahamas, Jamaica, Colombia, Costa Rica and Panama.
Itineraries that offer the opportunity to explore Cuba in such depth rarely come along, and therefore it’s perhaps fitting that the voyage will be operated under the Silversea Expeditions banner. As you may have already read in our interview with Silversea’s Expedition Leader Conrad Combrink, each voyage with Silversea Expeditions has been crafted to ensure guests get the most out of destinations many seldom get to explore – so this itinerary really is a must for those who wish to visit Cuba on a cruise in 2015.
