In 2006, the parent company of Red Carnation Hotels, an award-winning five-star luxury hotel collection, and Trafalgar Tours, the world’s leading tour operator, purchased Uniworld – one of Europe’s most experienced river cruise operators – with the aim of creating the world’s leading European river cruise experience. The combination of our companies’ expertise in luxury hotel management, touring, and decades of superior nautical experience have created the ultimate European river cruise operator.

In 2008, Uniworld presents an unrivalled Grand River Cruise program with unique itineraries and superb five-star inclusions. Travel onboard intimate, luxurious ships with a maximum of 134 guests—fewer guests than any other river cruise company in Europe. With one highly trained staff member for every three guests and expert onboard hotel management, we are able to deliver a guest satisfaction rate of 98%. Our outstanding meal program has been created by award winning chefs who prepare a wonderful selection of dishes using fresh local produce available from the destinations of each itinerary. Onshore, Uniworld ensures the best quality included excursions hosted by expert English-speaking local guides.

With this level of product delivery and service you will experience a vacation of a lifetime. This is Uniworld’s commitment to you, and we would have it no other way!
