Uniworld adds new luxury European cruise-and-tour range

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises has unveiled a collection of cruise-and-tour itineraries for 2027 in partnership with sister brand Luxury Gold.

The cruise line said it has seen an increase in bookings for itineraries which include both cruise and land elements in further flung destinations, and it has designed these new European itineraries to meet demand.

Each itinerary will feature a luxury hotel stay either pre- or post-cruise, with a travel concierge, guided sightseeing, dining and land experiences.

New 2027 cruise-and-tour itineraries include a 19-day ‘Experience the best of Italy’ round-trip journey from Venice, featuring a seven-night all-inclusive sailing on La Venevia and 11 nights’ accommodation at luxury hotels in Venice, Rome, Capri, Perugia, Florence and Rapallo. Prices start at £9,995 per person.

Also new is a 17-day ‘Revel in Switzerland and the Danube’ itinerary, which includes a seven-night all-inclusive cruise on Maria Theresa, and nine nights’ accommodation at hotels in Geneva, Zermatt, Saint Moritz, Lucerne and Zurich. The lead-in price is £10,485pp.

All prices include return flights, accommodation, excursions and some meals.

Bookings made before 30 June will receive a 10% discount.

Uniworld President and CEO Ellen Bettridge said: “At Uniworld, our focus is always on creating travel experiences that feel intentional and immersive.

“By pairing our boutique river cruises with some of Luxury Gold’s most popular land itineraries, we’re offering our guests a more expansive way to explore Europe – one that feels seamless and never asks them to compromise on service, comfort or ease.”

Managing Director for the UK and Europe Chris Townson said: “This new collection of luxury cruise and tour itineraries is a really welcome addition to the Uniworld portfolio – great news for agents and guests alike.

“We have seen a 65% year-on-year increase in bookings for our Spectacular Journeys of the World series, which combines cruise with land and sometimes rail in India, South America, Southeast Asia and Egypt.

“Now we’ve hand-selected some of Luxury Gold’s most engaging itineraries in Europe which marry perfectly with our Uniworld sailings, meaning guests can experience the best of the best of Europe in style, on both land and river.”
