Uniworld Boutique River Cruises is teaming up with sister brand Luxury Gold to offer a Cruise & Tour collection.
The itineraries, launching in 2027, pair Uniworld’s river cruises with Luxury Gold’s land tours. The Travel Corporation brands will offer five itineraries next year, ranging from 17 to 20 days. Prices start at $12,899 per person.
Uniworld CEO Ellen Bettridge said, “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.”
A 17-day Switzerland and Danube River itinerary travels from Geneva to Budapest and includes a river cruise on the Maria Theresa. Itinerary highlights include traveling on the Glacier Express panoramic train, a private after-hours visit to Lucerne’s Rosengart Museum and a hike in St. Moritz.
The 17-day France and Britain itinerary begins in Edinburgh and ends in Paris. The journey includes a Seine cruise on the Joie de Vivre. Travelers will travel through Scotland and England, visiting Alnwick Castle, the Lake District and Stonehenge. While in France, guests will visit a cheese farm, the Normandy beaches and the Versailles Palace secret apartments.
A 19-day Italy tour will bring guests roundtrip through Venice, pairing a Venetian lagoon cruise on La Venezia with a land journey across the country. Travelers will visit cities including Rome, Capri and Florence, where they will explore the Vatican Museums, visit Pompeii and enjoy a tasting experience in Umbria.
During the 19-day Switzerland and Rhine itinerary, travelers will embark on a Rhine cruise on the Elisabeth after visiting Switzerland. The Rhine cruise will visit France, Germany and the Netherlands. Guests will travel on the Glacier Express, enjoy an after-hours private tour of the Rosengart Collection, have a private vinegar tasting at Private Doktorenhof Vinegar Estate, and, for a Make Travel Matter experience, go on what is described as a “respectful” Red Light District tour.
A 20-day Portugal and Spain tour travels from Madrid to Porto. The itinerary includes a Douro cruise on the São Gabriel. Itinerary highlights include visiting the Alhambra, a Flamenco show and a cooking class.
