With active excursions (hiking, walking and bicycle rides), gourmet meals cooked with local produce, fitness centres and pools, decadent spas, and yoga classes on every adventure, Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection has long made it a priority to ensure the health of its guests.
In the new year, wellness will take centre stage: new programme offerings for 2020 include a three-day stay in Germany’s spa town of Baden-Baden, where guests can luxuriate in the healing powers of the thermal waters at the Caracalla Thermal Bath or Sea Salt Grotto. It’s part of the 12-day Rhine, Moselle and Blissful Baden-Baden itinerary, which includes a ‘Wellness on the Water’ programme on every departure.
Also featuring the wellness integrated-programming is the 8-day Brilliant Bordeaux cruise on board the brand new S.S. Bon Voyage. Launched in April 2019, the newly transformed super ship is designed to honour the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
On board activities include yoga in the heart of an iconic historical site (such as the Blaye fortress with 360-degree views over the Gironde estuary), guided trekking or Nordic walking with a naturalist through the Bastide of Cadillac, or sunrise meditation on Europe’s highest sand dune, La Teste-de-Buch.
In January, Uniworld is set to launch two exciting new ships — the Mekong Jewel, based in Vietnam and Cambodia, and the S.S. Sphinx (the only luxury river cruise on the Nile River).
Other new ships to be introduced in March 2020 include the S.S. Sao Gabriel in Portugal, and a renovated S.S. La Venezia in Italy.
New super ships (beginning with the tell-tale ’S.S.’ in their name) feature the signature touches and distinctive themes the company’s ships are known for, with more suites, more dining venues and more luxurious finishes (while still maintaining their high crew-to-guest ratio).
Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection continues to lead the luxury river cruise industry with the release of its 2020 sailings, showcasing an evolution of the cruise experiences and elevation of what it means to be all-inclusive.
