Silversea launches worldwide ‘An Ode to the Moment’ cruise, with a final stop in Nice

Silversea, the international luxury travel brand headquartered in the Principality of Monaco, has announced the launch of an incredible 132-day world cruise in 2028 that will start in Miami and end right here on the Riviera.

From 2028, Silversea’s An Ode to the Moment cruise will offer wanderlust-filled passengers the chance to visit some 58 destinations in 29 countries around the world between January and May.

The journey will unfold in nine thematic chapters, each highlighting unique regional experiences. From the vibrant rhythms of Rio de Janeiro’s Carnival to the serene beauty of Cape Town’s Table Mountain, guests will embark on an extraordinary voyage through South America, Africa, the Middle East and Europe, reaching its final stop in Nice in May 2028. Highlights will include stops in the Caribbean’s Jost Van Dyke, the wildlife-rich Chilean Fjords and the ancient desert wonders of Petra and Luxor. Optional excursions, such as gorilla trekking in Rwanda and a visit to Iguazu Falls, will add further depth to the experience for the most daring adventurers.

The cruise has been curated by Silversea’s top destination experts and promises unparalleled travel experiences that combine exclusive events, overland tours and access to more than 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The itinerary also includes extended stays in 17 ports, allowing for enriched cultural immersion.
