Do you have clients looking for a luxury river cruise experience on exciting itineraries throughout Europe, Russia, and Asia?

Then you really don’t have to look any further than Uniworld.

Uniworld is the epitome of luxury on water. As the only authentic boutique river cruise line in the world, award-winning Uniworld is a cut above the rest.

“A ship as unique as your voyage” – that’s the Uniworld philosophy behind the design of its ships.

It’s fleet of luxurious floating boutique hotels are all truly one-of-a-kind, inspired by the destination in which it sails.

From the original artwork hanging from the walls, to the furniture designed exclusively for the ship, to the little details and finishing touches that adorn the dining hall, Uniworld ships are epitome of class and quality.

 

2. They offer tons of shore experiences to suit every traveller.

Uniworld understand that each and every traveller is different. We are all unique – kinda like snowflakes – and we all have our own sets of needs and preferences.

Award-winning Uniworld completely understand this, and that’s why they offer a huge range of tailored shore excursions for guests to enjoy; everything from hiking and biking excursions that you can do on your own, to walking tours, food tastings, getting up-close-and-personal with locals, and much more.

In fact, guests have multiple options in each city, with exclusive excursions to please even the most well-traveled guests.
