Silver Spirt – Silversea (by Ian Hopley)

Silversea have always stood for quality, they introduced all suite vessels to the market and have maintained an enviable reputation for creating an understated ambience and relaxed tasteful lifestyle.

It was with great interest therefore that we approached our visited to their newest vessel the Silver Spirit. This vessel is larger than previous vessels at 540 guests and 36,000 tons.

First impressions were that she maintains the quiet tasteful feel of earlier Silversea vessels, but with some contemporary touches. See pictures in our photo library.

Eurodam – Holland America Line (by Ian Hopley)

Premium cruising, that band of quality ships rated above the mainstream vessels, but just short of the ultra luxury, are gaining a great deal of popularity with our clients looking for quality at reasonable prices.

The Eurodam falls into this category and further more makes several cruises in 2011 from/to Dover, our local port.

It was on a recent visit to Dover to coincide with the 2011 brochure launch we re-acquainted ourselves with the Eurodam. At 86.000+ tons, and holding over 2000 passengers she is a large vessel, but well broken up into interesting, varied and some times intimate areas.
