Silversea Concludes 2025 Venetian Society Reunion Voyage Aboard Silver Spirit
Silversea has concluded its 2025 Venetian Society Reunion Voyage, welcoming its extended family on board Silver Spirit.
From October 17 to October 29, a record number of Venetian Society members – part of Silversea’s loyalty program – traveled to 11 ports across three countries, on a journey hosted by Silversea President Bert Hernandez and other brand executives.
Sailing from Fusina (Venice) to Athens (Piraeus), guests enjoyed signature events and receptions, enriched entertainment, hosted shore excursions, and commemorative gifts – exclusive to Venetian Society members and designed to foster connection and discovery.
“Silversea’s Venetian Society Reunion Voyages are a testament to the deep sense of community that defines our brand,” said Bert Hernandez, president, Silversea. “These voyages celebrate not only our loyal travelers, but the spirit of curiosity that inspires every Silversea journey. It was a pleasure to join both returning and new guests on this unforgettable voyage through some of the world’s most beloved destinations.”
12 DAYS OF ENRICHMENT AND CELEBRATION
A welcome celebration at the cruise terminal in Fusina (Venice) kicked off the 2025 Venetian Society Reunion voyage. Guests were greeted with vibrant decorations, flowers, and live music from entertainers donning Venetian costumes – setting the stage for a journey across the Italian coastline. In the region, guests marveled at the region’s striking architecture, including historic landmarks such as St. Mark’s Basilica and Piazza San Marco in Venice and the Piazza Unità d’Italia in Trieste.
In Croatia’s medieval capital of Dubrovnik, guests explored the UNESCO-listed Old City, before venturing into the countryside to sample local wines at a family-run estate in the Konavle Valley.
After a day in the vibrant port city of Bari, Italy, Silver Spirit sailed to the Greek islands, blending iconic destinations like Santorini and Rhodes, with hidden gems such as Monemvasia and Souda Bay. In the Medieval town of Rhodes, guests took part in an Aegean Soirée, featuring mezze, Grecian wines, and music beneath the stars – a celebration culminating with a seaside banquet and a dazzling performance honoring Greek tradition.
The 12-day Mediterranean immersion concluded in Athens (Piraeus), with guests exploring the museums, galleries, and architectural ruins of the Greek capital.
Stops throughout the voyage were complemented by exclusive onboard events and specially curated experiences, including a champagne teatime, where a line of butlers and senior officers welcomed guests, preparing delicious cakes and crepes to the rhythm of live music. Guests also enjoyed three local shows along with a reception and special dinner hosted by Silversea’s president and executive team.
Two exclusive champagne dinners onboard uniquely paired with the Duval-Leroy’s Heritage Collection, including rare vintages of Fleur de Champagne Cuvées 1988, 1997 and 2002 and the Iconic Prestige Femme de Champagne cuvées non-vintage, 2002, 2008 and exquisite 2008 Rosé.
Crafted from Premier and Grand Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, each cuvée offered a distinct sensory profile, echoing a spirit of refinement and discovery.
LOOKING AHEAD TO THE VENETIAN SOCIETY REUNION 2026
Building on this year’s success, Silversea invites guests to its 2026 Reunion Voyage aboard Silver Shadow from June 19 to July 1.

THE NOVA CLASS IS SET TO TAKE MEDITERRANEAN EXPLORATION FURTHER IN 2026 SEASON
Silversea is looking ahead to the 2026 season with its cutting-edge Nova Class ships set to embark on 50 voyages across the region. New shorter, combinable sailings onboard Silver Nova and Silver Ray will allow guests to disembark in some of the region’s smaller, more exclusive ports – including Saint Tropez, Portofino, and Rijeka – offering deeper immersion.
Designed with an innovative asymmetrical layout that brings guests closer to the landscapes of each destination, the Nova Class will provide uninterrupted vistas of the region’s most scenic coastlines, from the cliffs of Santorini and the harbors of Dubrovnik to the pastel-hued villages of the Amalfi Coast.
