Hi I'm Gary Bembridge of Tips For
Travellers and I am going to take you on a
tour of probably the most beautiful, most
luxurious ship that I've ever been on!
It's Silversea Silver Muse. I'm going to
show you all the features of the ship,
the facilities, the dining options, and
of course the suites as well.
So let me talk about the different types
of accommodation on board. It's all suites and the
Owner's Suite is the grandest of all. It's a
one-bedroom suite, it's very palatial and
there's an adjoining veranda suite so it
can become a two-bedroom suite. The Grand
Suite again is another magnificent suite, it
had a real wow factor. It's a one bedroom
suite that can be made into two. The
Silver Suite is also one bedroom suite.
I really liked it. It's avery comfortable
suite and it's pretty magnificent!
And then you have three classes of
Verandah Suites. You have a Deluxe
Veranda Suite, Superior and Classic -
and the real difference between the
Veranda Suites is their location. So
the Deluxe suite is mid-ship and
in the quietest part of the ship.
So let's talk about places to eat now.
There is no main dining room on board
the Silver Muse. Instead there are eight
dining venues, six of which are included
within your fare - plus of course there is
24-hour room service. The first of the
restaurants is a Silversea classic, La Terrazza.
This is an Italian restaurant and is
open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
During the day it has serving stations
it's self service, and at night it's an
a la carte restaurant. Atlantide
is a restaurant that I loved. It's a fish
and steak restaurant serving incredible
cuisine with beautiful fish and great steaks.
It's a great venue. Indochine is another
great restaurant, and this serves Asian
food - fusion food. It has Thai food
and Indian food. An innovative
restaurant is a place called Silver Note.
This combines music and food, serving
Tapas style food and there is music there
in the evening. It's a really fun and
great concept. If you're looking for more
informal dining, there's two places that
are very popular. One is Hot Rocks. Hot
Rocks in the evening does Silverseas
famous hot lava stone cooking, where you
cook your own food outside. It's a great
venue and during the day it has much more
casual food like burgers and that kind
of stuff. Spaccanapoli is a famous road
in Naples and this is the name of the
pizza restaurant, which is an outdoor
restaurant serving incredible pizza. The
pizza here is absolutely magnificent!
Now there are two restaurants which you have
to pay a cover charge, which at the time
of making this video is around sixty
dollars per person. The first is a
French cuisine restaurant which is
called La Dame which is a partnership with
Relais and Chateaux, which is across most
of the Silversea ships. The other one
you have to pay a service charge for is
Kaiser, this is a Japanese restaurant
it serves sushi and in the evenings it
also does teppanyaki.
So let's talk about bars and lounges.
Well the most popular lounge / bar on the
ship is the Panorama Lounge. It's a quiet
place during the day but at night it's
really where everyone heads to after the
show and after dinner for drinks and
music. An innovative and new thing to
Silversea is the Art's Cafe. This
particular venue showcases lots of
eclectic art, has lots of art books and will
actually have art lectures. It serves food
morning, lunchtime and into the
evening when has little chocolate treats.
It's a beautiful bright venue. Right next
door to the Art's Cafe is a Silversea
classic which is the Connoisseur's lounge
where you can go and smoke. So quite
unusually for cruise ships these days,
there is a place inside where you can actually
go and smoke. But at night it's really
for cognac and cigars. Right up on the
top of the ship overlooking the bow is
Tor's Observation Lounge. This is a great
venue and there's a library there so you can
take books out and have a read up there.
It's beautiful during the day because
can just sit there with great views over
the bow of the ship and the ocean. They
also have a cheese and wine up there
around about nine o'clock at night if
you're feeling a little bit peckish!
Another place to go and hang out is
actually in the atrium reception area.
So in the area where you've got the
reception and the excursion desk
is a great big lounge area with a bar.
It's a bit of a hub and is great again
in the evenings for meeting people and
having drinks.
So what else is there to do on board
the ship terms of entertainment?
There's the Venetian lounge. This is the
main show lounge where the Silversea
singers perform shows, but also
things like enrichment lectures are also
held. In terms of outdoor
activities there's a fantastic pool deck
up on deck nine with a great size pool,
lots of very comfortable chairs and
loungers and there's a running track.
There's also a spa and fitness center
which has barber, hairdressers, nail
treatments as well. If you're looking for
other things to do in evening then there
is a casino. It's a small casino. There
are shops selling things like
branded goods, watches and that kind of stuff.
There's also a card room. Another
thing that's quite unique for Silversea on
Silver Muse is that there is actually an
activity room designed for children. So
at peak periods when there are a lot of
children on board there will be
facilities and activities for kids. So
hopefully as we've gone around the ship
you agree with me that this is a
magnificent ship. It feels very luxurious.
It feels very plush. It's a beautiful
beautiful ship and I absolutely loved it.
Hopefully this video tour has given you a
good sense of what it is and helps you to
help you decide if this is a ship for you.
