Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection

THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAILS
There’s a moment on every Uniworld boutique river cruise when it becomes clear. Maybe it’s while luxuriating in the comfort of your exceptionally appointed stateroom or suite. Or when savoring yet another culinary masterpiece prepared by our master chefs. Or while experiencing the jewels of Europe from a perspective only the river can provide. A moment when you realise that this journey is unlike anything you’ve ever experienced and beyond anything you could have expected.

IN-SUITE BUTLERS
Uniworld butlers go above and beyond to create special moments that our guests remember long after they leave. Service from specialty trained, in-suite butlers will be available to all guests staying in suites onboard our European fleet (except Russia, Portugal and Spain).

CULINARY EXCELLENCE
Enjoy an unrivalled taste of your destinations when dining onboard, you’ll be treated to world-class cuisine made from fresh ingredients, locally sourced from the destinations you visit. For those interested in healthier dining options, our Traveling Lite menu features all of the flavor of our traditional menu, but with fewer calories. We also offer a variety of vegetarian and vegan options, prepared just for you. If you have a specific meal preference, just ask. Our chefs will be happy to accommodate.

WELLNESS ONBOARD
Wellness is a universal language, and whichever cruise you choose, you’ll have access to our Wellness on the Water programs and amenities. Our “Let’s Go” onshore programme features guided walking, hiking, cycling, kayaking and golfing tours, as well as gondola rowing and more. Wherever your journey takes you, there will be many opportunities to get out and go.

INCLUDED EXCURSIONS
Every Uniworld itinerary is infused with amazing included excursions, designed to showcase the authentic culture, sights, activities and cuisine of the places you’ll visit. Nothing onboard is cookie-cutter, so your time onshore shouldn’t be either. These included excursions feature several options throughout the entire day, so you can adventure onwards exactly how you’d like. The choice is yours:

We've taken careful measure so you can travel without worry.

As an experienced traveller you are well informed, prepared and mindful. Uniworld approaches every cruise with that same thorough diligence. Stringent security and sanitation protocols onboard our ships are nothing new to us. They not only remain our top priorities but are being escalated as we face the current challenge. As we learn more from Cruise Line International Association (CLIA) and the World Health Organization (WHO) we will look to adopt their health and safety recommendations and continue to update for your added peace of mind.

Health and safety assurance—always a priority for your cruise experience.

• All outside doors and access to the interior of the ships are locked when docked. Only registered guests can access the ship using a key card.
• All guests and luggage are verified against the manifest at check-in.

• Key card scanners with facial recognition are utilized at the gangway.

*Note: Security features implemented on Uniworld owned and operated ships only. Security features may differ by itinerary.

PLEASE NOTE: While we believe these protocols to be the appropriate steps in protecting the wellbeing of our guests and crew, we will continue to evaluate and make changes if they are deemed to be ineffective or if they negatively impact the wellbeing of our guests and crew. We’re actively reviewing additional health and sanitation steps and will add them to these protocols upon approval.
