Silversea has launched a new brochure featuring a dazzling collection of Asia-Pacific adventures for 2013 and 2014 aboard its stylish 382-guest sister ships – Silver Shadow and Silver Whisper.
Karen Christensen, General Manager and Director Sales and Marketing Australasia for Silversea, commented: “The Asia-Pacific region always holds great appeal to our Australasian guests due to its accessibility, wealth of culture and exotic landscapes. We have some fascinating itineraries on offer for 2013 and 2014, including two Grand Voyages – one featuring an extended three night stay in Myanmar – and dedicated culinary and wine cruises. Other itineraries take in must-see sights in China, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and more.”
