Traveling solo doesn’t mean going it alone—especially when you’re sailing with Silversea Cruises. For discerning solo travelers who crave space, culture, and connection (but not the crowds), Silversea offers something truly rare: an ultra-luxury cruise experience that feels both private and personal.
At Scott & Thomas, we’re seeing more and more clients choosing to travel solo—and choosing to do it in style. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, checking off a dream destination, or simply carving out time for yourself, here’s why Silversea solo cruises are one of our top recommendations.
A Boutique Experience That Feels Personal
One of the biggest perks of sailing solo with Silversea is the ship itself. With a fleet of small ships—most carrying fewer than 600 guests—you’ll never feel lost in the crowd. Instead, you’ll get to know your fellow travelers, the staff, and even the officers, all in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
Whether you’re sharing a table with new friends at La Terrazza or enjoying a quiet dinner for one at La Dame, Silversea makes solo travel feel both intimate and elevated.
Luxury, Simplified
Silversea’s signature is its all-inclusive luxury—and for solo travelers, that simplicity matters.
Included in every Silversea voyage:
- A spacious oceanview suite with your own private balcony
- Butler service
- Gourmet dining across multiple venues
- Fine wines, premium spirits, and all-day champagne
- Shore excursions in every port
- Wi-Fi, gratuities, and all onboard service
No extra planning. No awkward tipping moments. Just space to relax and travel exactly how you want to.
Thoughtful Solo Rates & Special Offers
Historically, solo travelers have paid a hefty premium on cruise fares—but Silversea is changing that. Many itineraries feature reduced or waived single supplements, making solo luxury cruising more accessible than ever. At Scott & Thomas, we stay on top of these offers and can help you navigate itineraries with the best value for solo guests. You get the same suite, same amenities, and same Silversea experience—without the extra cost.
Enriching Days at Sea
If you’re traveling solo, a well-paced itinerary is key—and Silversea balances port days with enough time at sea to truly unwind. Onboard, you’ll find everything you need to make the most of your solo time:
- Thought-provoking guest lecturers and cultural talks
- A world-class spa and wellness center
- Cooking demos and mixology classes through the S.A.L.T. program
- Elegant lounges and bars where you can be social (or not)
- A library, observation deck, and quiet corners to journal or read
Whether you’re introverted or extroverted, there’s a rhythm here that fits your travel style.
Shore Excursions Made Easy
Silversea includes complimentary excursions in every port, so you never have to worry about joining a group or navigating logistics on your own. Tours are small, often led by local experts and historians, and there’s always an option to explore at your own pace. And if you want something extra-special—say, a private tour of a museum in Florence, or a market visit with a local chef in Vietnam—our team can customize excursions that match your interests, style, and comfort level.
The Scott & Thomas Concierge Touch
As a solo traveler, peace of mind matters. That’s why we offer concierge-level planning from the start. From helping you choose the perfect itinerary to arranging pre-cruise hotel stays, airport transfers, and even packing lists, we’re here for every step. And since we work closely with Silversea, we can often unlock exclusive solo fares, VIP perks, and upgrades not publicly available. You get all the independence of solo travel—with none of the hassle.
