This seventh leg of the first ever Expedition World Cruise will cover three famous seas and will enlighten how they were connected to the spice trade. Spices such as nutmeg, cardamom and cinnamon were the main economic drive behind the Portuguese, Dutch and British voyages of exploration and trade around the Cape of Good Hope into the Indian Ocean. Silver Cloud will follow the route of a much earlier spice trade from Cochin via the Arabian Peninsula, the Red Sea and Egypt, a route that predates the European exploration by more than 1,500 years. Famous ancient cities and UNESCO World Heritage sites will be visited and the Suez Canal crossed. Throughout the voyage, learn about the geology, botany, wildlife and history, as well as the reasons and desire behind the spice trade in this vast area through lecture presentations offered by guest speakers and your knowledgeable onboard Expedition Team.
With 18-brand new Zodiacs, four superlative restaurants in Antarctica and a pole to pole expedition itinerary, Silver Cloud really does break the ice between expedition and luxury.
