Serentis Travel

Expedition and ocean voyages that feel nothing like a cruise.

Personalized planning by Brian Hart, a Silversea specialist in luxury expedition (Antarctica, the Galápagos, the Arctic) and immersive ocean. If another luxury line fits you better, I'll tell you and book it anyway. One advisor start to finish, with perks you can't book direct.

About

17 cruises. 111 nights at sea. Since 1999.

I'm Brian Hart, owner of Serentis Travel, and I've been cruising for over 25 years: seventeen voyages across every kind of ship, from family sailings on Disney Cruise Line and Celebrity to ultra-luxury with Silversea.

Today, Serentis Travel is a Silversea specialist, an ultra-luxury line known for both luxury expedition to the ends of the earth (Antarctica, the Galápagos, Patagonia, the Arctic) and immersive ocean. That focus is deliberate: rather than dabble across a dozen brands, I go deep on one. And I still book across the luxury lines, from Regent to Seabourn to Explora, so when another line is the honest best fit for you, I'll say so and book it anyway. Extraordinary trips, but easy to get wrong without guidance: the right line, ship, suite, and season change everything.

That's my job. I curate the voyage around you. You deal with one person, me, from your first question to the day you disembark, never a rotating cast of call-center reps. And because Serentis is part of a global travel network, I secure perks you can't get booking direct: shipboard credit, exclusive experiences, and onboard amenities (and upgrades when a promotion allows). Same fare, more value.

Specialties

Curated focus, not a long list.

One line: Silversea, for both luxury expedition and immersive ocean. I go deep on one line instead of a little of everything, so you get recommendations grounded in the real ships, suites, and seasons, rather than whatever the booking engine surfaces first. And when another luxury line fits you better, I'll tell you and book it anyway, at the same fare with more value.

Silversea Expedition

My lead specialty: once-in-a-lifetime voyages to Antarctica, the Galápagos, Patagonia, and the Arctic aboard Silversea's purpose-built expedition ships. These trips are easy to get wrong without guidance, so I match you to the right ship, suite, and season, and handle every detail.

Silversea Ocean

Immersive ultra-luxury ocean cruising: rich destinations, S.A.L.T. culinary, and European polish, all-suite with butler service, plus the top Door-to-Door fares that bundle airfare and a private chauffeur from your home.

Any Luxury Line

Silversea is where I go deepest, but it isn't the only thing I book. If Regent, Seabourn, Explora, or another luxury line is the honest best fit for how you travel, I'll say so and book it anyway, at the same fare with more value. My quiz even emails you the best line and ship for you, whether or not it's one I specialize in. The specialty is depth and straight advice about what's right for you.
