Port Locations & Boarding Times
Addresses and final boarding times are subject to change. Please use this page to verify your embarkation address and boarding time 24 hours prior to arrival.
IMPORTANT UPDATES
Guests with scheduled Uniworld transfers or on a Uniworld pre-cruise extension will be taken to the ship for embarkation. Guests without scheduled Uniworld transfers have the following options:
- Make their own way to Strasbourg (at their own expense) for embarkation; or
- Take a Uniworld-provided group transfer from Basel city center to the ship at 11:00 am or at 3:30 pm. The motorcoach will be parked at the Basel Art Museum: St. Alban-Graben 16, 4051 Basel, Switzerland (click here for map). Please note we will depart on time at 11:00 am and at 3:30 pm, and we ask all guests meeting us there to arrive in time to board either shuttle.
