Whether you’re looking for somewhere to unwind and relax, or the opportunity to continue a workout routine, Silver Cloud has you covered.

For pampering, the Zagara Beauty Spa is the perfect place to go. Here, you’ll have the chance to indulge in a variety of luxurious spa treatments, from facials and body wraps to massages and more. The spa area is also home to saunas and steam rooms, both of which are great for relaxing post-workout or winding down before an indulgent session in the spa.

Beyond this, the comprehensive Fitness Centre onboard is perfect for anyone wanting to maintain a workout routine while cruising some of the world’s most remarkable rivers. While free to use whenever you’d like, personal training services and specialty fitness classes are available at an additional cost.

Recreation

Despite the fact that destination-rich itineraries will mean you have plenty of incredible shore experiences to enjoy, the recreational activities available on Silver Cloud are plenty.

Silver Cloud is also home to a state-of-the-art Photo Studio, where you can master the art of digital photography with classes in photo editing, learn new techniques to improve the pictures you take, and more.
