\n
The next time you\u2019re considering cruising, a river cruise is an ideal choice. Uniworld Boutique River Cruises, our sister company in The Travel Corporation, takes guests on all-inclusive, luxury tours in Europe, Asia, Egypt and Peru onboard gorgeously appointed floating hotels.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\n
\n
\n

Traveling on small ships with fewer guests, you enjoy more personal space and more personalized service. Your fellow passengers will number in the dozens instead of the thousands, and you\u2019ll never find yourself waiting in those long embarkation and disembarkation lines.<\/p>\n

What we find most attractive about river cruising, however, is how well it immerses travelers in their destinations. Small river ships can travel far past the coastline to places ocean liners can\u2019t reach and bring you to both major cities and hidden gem towns along the way. You\u2019ll also find yourself in constant proximity to land, immersed in your destination through river views at all times. The best part? River ships can dock in the heart of town, so you can step right off the boat and into the action.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\"image\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Many river cruise lines will offer \u201call-inclusive\u201d amenities, but only Uniworld delivers the highest degree of luxury inclusions. A variety of carefully curated excursions at every port, daily fitness classes, all onboard gratuities, 3 gourmet meals a day and unlimited fine wines, beers and spirits are just the start of it.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"image\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Uniworld\u2019s claim to fame is its fleet of floating boutique hotels. Inspired by the destinations through which they cruise, every ship is beautifully decorated down to the finest details. Each stands apart with elegant color palettes, sumptuous furnishings, original artwork, custom fabrics and spacious suites with all-marble bathrooms. No two Uniworld ships\u2014or even suites for that matter\u2014are alike. And everything onboard is crafted to reflect your destination, from the design to their included onboard experiences (think cooking classes, local entertainment, fascinating lectures, and more).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"image\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
You\u2019ll find the highest standards of service onboard with Uniworld. The crews are passionate about going the extra mile to give guests an unforgettable experience, with friendly and dedicated teams that live by the motto \u201cno request is too large, no detail is too small\u201d. Suite guests enjoy the service of butlers trained by the same rigorous team that prepares butlers for work at Buckingham Palace.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"image\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Onshore experiences with Uniworld are all about getting to know your destination intimately, and they offer a wide range of excursions aimed at helping you do just that. \u201cVillage Day\u201d outings bring you to charming small towns and introduce you to the people who call them home\u2014perhaps a local potter in their shop, or a winemaker ready to take you on a tasting tour through their vineyards. On \u201cDo as the Locals Do\u201d tours, you\u2019ll follow an expert local guide through their cities to see the less touristy sides of major destinations like Paris or Venice. And if active adventures are more your style, \u201cLet\u2019s Go\u201d excursions take you on hikes, bike rides and more through picturesque locations.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"image\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

As our sister company in The Travel Corporation (TTC), we know Uniworld well, which is why we\u2019re so excited to introduce this experience to you. If you\u2019re going to take a cruise, you\u2019ll find the Insight standard of unique experiences, deliciously authentic dining, comfort and style only on a river cruise with Uniworld.<\/p>\n

And, of course, as a TTC brand, we are pleased to be able to guarantee to you that Uniworld operates with the same commitment to environmental and community welfare that we have. In partnership with the TreadRight Foundation, Uniworld works to make travel matter for the planet, for wildlife and for the people whose communities they visit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
