Silversea Sets 2024 Venetian Society Reunion on New Silver Nova
Silversea Cruises will explore Asia for its 2024 Venetian Society Reunion Voyage for members of the ultra-luxury line’s loyalty program. President and CEO Barbara Muckermann will host the voyage on the 728-guest Silver Nova, the new ship expected to join the fleet in August 2023. Norman Rafelson, delegate to the Venetian Society, also will sail.
The cruise will depart Tokyo on Oct. 15, 2024, and journey through Asia for 16 days, arriving in Singapore on Oct. 31.
The Venetian Society Reunion Voyages, open to all travelers, foster a convivial atmosphere and a sense of camaraderie, appealing to Silversea’s close-knit Venetian Society guests, who reconvene with friends and meet new like-minded travelers.
The cruise will include special events, exclusive events ashore, and commemorative gifts throughout the sailing. Venetian Society members can save 5 percent on the cruise fare.
“It is always special for me to spend time on board our ships with our guests,” Muckermann said. “Our Venetian Society Reunion Voyages provide the perfect opportunity to reconnect with the most loyal members of our extended family, while also meeting new guests. This particular sailing will be especially unique, as it will mark the very first reunion aboard Silver Nova — offering guests the chance to experience our newest class of ship, which, for the first time in Silversea’s history, will incorporate an asymmetrical design and a horizontal layout, and will be among the most spacious ultra-luxury ships ever built.”
The Venetian Society voyage will visit five countries with three overnight calls. In Kagoshima (Kyushu Island), travelers will learn about Japanese culture during visits to the Chiran Samurai Residence, the Shochu Brewery, and a traditional hot spring. Guests will discover South Korea’s Incheon (Seoul) during an overnight call, with excursions to Ganghwa Island, the Changdeok Palace and the city’s Fortress Wall, and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. On Oct. 24, Silver Nova will arrive in Hong Kong for an overnight call. An overnight call in Ho Chi Minh City includes visits to the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta.
