Inspired by the regions through which they sail, Uniworld’s designers have mastered a unique blend of old-world elegance, the latest technological innovations and ultra-luxurious amenities. Every element onboard has been thoughtfully considered and flawlessly rendered, with the goal of providing guests with a truly unsurpassed and unforgettable river cruising experience.

Every guestroom is well-appointed and comfortably fitted with Savoir® Beds of England, the highest quality linens and marble-lined bathrooms. Every detail has been designed with your ultimate comfort in mind.
If you choose to stay in one of Uniworld’s spacious suites, you’ll enjoy outstanding butler service, Asprey and Hermès bath products, a fully stocked bar, fresh snacks delivered daily and more. Each suite is individually designed with unique fabrics and stylish touches – no two are the same.
Shared Spaces

Each ship also has well-equipped fitness centers and a spa, perfect for an invigorating workout or a relaxing massage.
Super Ships

Uniworld’s onboard Signature Lectures are presented by academics, art historians, and other local experts, designed to provide guests with an engaging and mind-expanding perspective on the art, history, cuisine, and unique cultural traditions of their destination.

Health and fitness are very important with Uniworld guests, so they supply ample opportunities to stay active throughout your journey. Onshore, go hiking or cycling with a sports guide or expert naturalist, paddle a kayak under an ancient Roman aqueduct, or borrow a bike or Nordic walking sticks to explore on your own. Onboard, get your heart pumping in the well-equipped fitness center, take an exercise class with an onboard wellness coach, or try something new—like the Five Tibetan Rites or a private TRX workout.
SPIRIT
A leisurely-paced river cruise is ideal for anyone in need of rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation. Pamper yourself with a wellness treatment in the tranquil Serenity River Spa™. Unwind with a gentle yoga session. Slip away to the luxury of your beautiful stateroom or suite, where you’ll find comfy robes and soothing Hermès and Asprey bath and body products. Sheer bliss!

At Uniworld, they believe sustainability is the key to a better world. In the course of traveling the great rivers of the world and meeting people from all over the globe, it’s nearly impossible not to stand in awe of the beauty and power of the natural environment, and the cultures that call it home. This love for the world around us drives the commitment to implementing sustainable business and travel practices, while supporting the nature and people around us ensures that the very places we live in and travel to will remain vibrant for future generations. The company-wide efforts to make a positive difference in the world are based upon the three pillars of environmental, social and economic responsibility:
Environmental Responsibility
In partnership with the TreadRight Foundation and the Travel Foundation, Uniworld created the first-of-its-kind Environmental Sustainability River Cruising Guide in 2013. They also implemented industry-leading green initiatives at their corporate offices, and partnered with WE Charity to help provide safe drinking water where it is needed most.
Social Responsibility
Their dedication to social responsibility takes many forms. In addition to providing excursions that immerse travelers in local cultures, they promote various charities, including the “Future of Khmer Children,” donate materials no longer in use on their ships, and help develop programs focused on preserving local communities and cultures.
Economic Responsibility
From organic wineries to small, family-run enterprises, Uniworld is committed to supporting environmentally conscious business throughout the destinations to which we travel. By introducing guests to these local and sustainable ventures, they are able to provide truly unique experiences to travelers while bringing economic opportunity to the region.
TreadRight Foundation
Founded in 2008 as a joint initiative between Uniworld and each member of The Travel Corporation family of brands, the TreadRight Foundation encourages the sustainable development of tourism by supporting projects that benefit the environment, cultural heritages and local communities. Part of their work with TreadRight has been to ensure all of Uniworld’s products meet globalized standards of animal welfare and begin the process of eliminating single-use plastics across all operations by 2022.”
Uniworld has been recognized by Travel Daily Sustainability Awards as the ‘Best Sustainable Travel or Tourism Initiative’ in the River Cruise 2019 category.
