Why You Need to River Cruise with Uniworld

Jack Goddard

Updated: 5 days ago

Sailing by river means enjoying all the conveniences of a traditional cruise, along with the benefits of immersive inland travel, all the while relaxing on board a floating boutique hotel that caters to your every need. River cruising is absolutely the best way to cruise, and the best and most luxurious river cruises are with Uniworld.


Why You Need to River Cruise


Smaller Ships, Fewer Guests


The ships feature an average capacity of just 120 guests and a guest-to-crew ratio of 2.3 to 1, meaning you’ll get to experience an intimate onboard atmosphere and unmatched service from the most tenured crew in the industry.

Truly Immersive


River ships can take travelers far past the coastline to destinations all over the world, immersing you in the heart of every country you visit. And better still, we can dock in the center of town, so you can step right off the ship and into the action.

A Room with a View


On the rivers, every room comes with ever-changing views. Whether you’re relaxing on the sundeck, enjoying a cocktail in the lounge, or waking up in your cabin, you’ll love watching the serene landscapes of your destination float by.

No Lines or Crowds


The guides can take you right past the long waits at major tourist sites, or even skip the lines entirely with VIP access and private tours. Plus, unlike on an ocean cruise, you won’t have to deal with wait times for embarking or disembarking.

Your Well-being is Uniworld’s Priority


By nature of river travel, you’ll always be mere moments away from the shore and its resources, should you need them. The health and safety of the guests and crew is Uniworld’s top priority, so they have developed stringent security and sanitationprotocols for their ships.
