OUR COMMITMENT TO ELEVATING LUXURY RIVER CRUISING. What it takes to elevate luxury river cruising. Ten years ago we redefined the term “unsurpassed luxury” when we launched the first Super Ship—the S.S. Antoinette. With custom décor that brought the Rhine region to life onboard, this ship completely transformed the standards of river cruising. We continue to launch new Super Ships with each passing year as we work towards transforming our entire fleet, delivering the absolute best experience in river cruising. Our Super Ships are the new picture of elevated luxury. It’s the one-of-a-kind design that Uniworld represents, with more suites, more dining options and more luxurious tiny noticeable touches throughout. In 2020, we added four new Super Ships to our fleet—S.S. Sphinx in Egypt, Mekong Jewel in Vietnam and Cambodia, S.S. La Venezia in Italy and S.S. São Gabriel in Portugal. This commitment to always operating the best ships on the rivers is why we’re consistently voted the World’s Best Luxury River Cruise Line. It’s a commitment we’ve had since the beginning—and one we’ll always have. Here’s to another year of delivering the World’s Best in river cruising. We’ll see you onboard. WINNER WINNER S.S.
