What We Like About Silver Endeavour

Launched in 2022, Silver Endeavour is the ultimate luxury expedition cruise ship in the polar regions. Originally built as Crystal Endeavor for Crystal Cruises, it was renamed Silver Endeavour, offering one of the most premium onboard experiences in the polar regions.

This ship is designed for ultra-luxury expedition cruising with a PC6 ice-class rating to go deep into the polar regions. With 20 Zodiacs, you’ll have a hands-on opportunity to explore the Arctic and Antarctica in style with a world-class expedition team.

For the team at North Pole Cruises, Silver Endeavour stands out as the go-to ship for luxury expedition cruising. It has the most luxury suites of any expedition ship, with all private verandas and ensuites. There are plenty of options from Veranda Suites to the spacious Owner’s Suite with a private wrap-around balcony overlooking the ship’s bow.

Silver Endeavour, with its eight decks, offers a wealth of space and a range of excellent amenities. From multiple fine dining options, to the on-deck hot pool and spa for extra pampering, every aspect of the ship is designed to make you feel like a privileged guest. The expedition is led by a team of world-class polar guides, ensuring you have the most enriching experience possible.

For those looking for luxury expedition cruises, this is our first choice of expedition ship.
