Ireland is a land where cultural charm meets rugged mountains, ancient castles overlook crashing waves, and every port holds a story. With Silversea Cruises, you’ll explore the Emerald Isle aboard an ultra-luxury ship that blends personalized service with cultural depth and world-class gastronomy.
At Scott & Thomas, we specialize in creating journeys that do more than visit places—they connect you to them. A Silversea voyage to Ireland is more than a vacation. It’s a voyage that combines cultural richness with gourmet cuisine, luxury, and unforgettable landscapes.
Explore Ireland by Sea: The Silversea Way
Sailing on a small ship with Silversea means you’ll dock in the heart of Ireland’s historic towns and scenic harbors—places larger vessels simply can’t reach. With intimate itineraries through Europe and the British Isles, these cruises showcase Ireland’s coast at its finest.
From the charming pubs of Cork to the wild cliffs of Donegal, and the literary streets of Dublin to the colorful seafront of Galway, every day brings a new discovery. Silversea’s hand-picked itineraries offer unparalleled options—often including overnight stays in major ports, so you can experience cities like Belfast or Dublin after the crowds fade.
Shore Excursions with Substance
Silversea’s Irish shore excursions let you truly experience the beauty and culture of Ireland. Visit the rugged mountains of Connemara, where quiet lakes and green hills stretch for miles. Walk along the old city walls of Derry and hear powerful stories from the past. In Cork, explore the colorful English Market or learn about Irish emigration at the historic Cobh harbor.
You can also tour a small family-run distillery, tasting real Irish whiskey while hearing the traditions behind it. Love nature? Take a scenic hike along the Cliffs of Moher or hop on a zodiac boat to spot puffins, seals, and other coastal wildlife. These shore excursions go beyond sightseeing—they help you connect with Ireland in a meaningful and memorable way.
Onboard: A Floating Irish Manor
While the landscapes outside your suite change daily, the comfort inside remains impeccable. Silversea’s ships offer cutting-edge design paired with timeless elegance—featuring all-suite accommodations, private verandas, and attentive butler service.
Dine on menus inspired by the region, including fresh Irish seafood, farm-sourced lamb, and decadent desserts, all paired with wines from Silversea’s extensive cellar. Or enjoy a quiet breakfast on your veranda, thanks to 24/7 room service.
On select sailings, the S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste) program brings Ireland’s food culture to life with cooking classes, tastings, and immersive culinary excursions ashore.
