Silversea Cruises has launched a collection of wellness-themed expedition cruises designed for travellers looking to recharge their mind and body by combining exploration travel with a holistic approach to rejuvenation.
The Wellness Expedition Voyages offered onboard Silver Discoverer in 2016 and 2017 are designed to provide guests with the opportunity to improve their wellbeing while journeying to destinations off the beaten path in Southeast Asia, Australia, Oceania, Africa, and the Indian Ocean. On these voyages, guests will encounter exotic landscapes, fascinating cultures, and unique wildlife, returning each day to a ship that is a sanctuary for mind, body, and spirit.
Silversea has partnered with Technogym, a leading company in the field of wellness and fitness, to create a comprehensive and complimentary programme that includes:
- Stretching, yoga, and Pilates classes held onboard and ashore (depending on location)
- Fitness classes conducted in the ship’s onboard swimming pool
- Choice of one complimentary spa massage treatment
- Daily lectures and cooking demonstrations on the benefits of healthy and balanced nutrition
- Gym sessions led by personal trainers using state-of-the-art Technogym fitness equipment
Also featured on the Wellness Expedition Voyages is a dedicated team of wellness specialists to accompany guests on their wellness journey. The team includes fitness lifestyle expert Natasha Eksteen, yoga instructor Jenni Kauppila, and nutritionist Dalila Roglieri.
“We want to enable our guests to focus on their personal wellbeing as they journey to discover some of the world’s most fascinating places and unique cultures,” said Lisa McAuley, Silversea’s Commercial Director, UK and Ireland. “Each wellness-themed cruise offers a well-balanced programme of fitness education, exercise, and nutritional guidance, plus an indulgent spa treatment.
