What does luxury

MEAN TO YOU The word luxury means different things to different people. As you would expect with five-star hotels on land, there are different levels of luxury available to guests.

As we see it, would you choose to stay in a chain hotel where you can find the same layout no matter where you are in the world, or would you choose to stay in a boutique luxury hotel offering an incredible new experience?

Uniworld are an incredibly unique river cruise line, we have taken our inspiration from our sister brand, the Red Carnation Hotel Collection (known as some of the finest hotels in the world), making us the only river cruise line to operate a collection of luxury hotels.

This means luxury is deep-rooted in our DNA, and we pride ourselves on being known as the most luxurious river cruise line in the world.

What is a

Imagine yourself slowly making your way through great cities and countryside on board your award winning, floating luxury hotel.

Truly immerse yourself in local culture as our smaller ships allow you to dock in the very heart of the world’s greatest cities, meaning you can be on shore quickly to discover the destination for yourself.

Overnight stay in Caen for Bordeaux or Rhone cruises Caen is the perfect stopover if you are sailing on our 8 day Brilliant Bordeaux and Rhine and Normandy If you are looking for a stopover in France then the historic region of Caen may be perfect for you.

Since being founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th Century, Caen has experienced pivotal historical moments, including the siege by King Edward III during the 100 Years’ War and the Battle for Caen during the Second World War. Today, visitors will find an array of monuments and sites commemorating the city’s history, alongside museums, churches, and abbeys.

Overnight stay in Reims Reims is the capital of France’s regions and is home to exquisite historical vineyards and picturesque rolling hills. The region is home to some of the world’s most famous champagne houses and is best known for its famous bottles of joie de vivre. There’s much more to this incredible city then its produce, it is home to world renowned architecture and is definitely somewhere you won’t want to miss.

Reims

Overnight stay in Auxerre

Auxerre

The charming riverside town of Auxerre traces its origins back to Roman times when it blossomed and became a provincial capital. Much of these historic roots are still visible today. It’s still every inch the postcard-worthy town featuring grand architecture set back from the river linked by elegant arching bridges. Visitors to Auxerre will undoubtedly enjoy the impressive town, but the surrounding Burgundy countryside is equally gorgeous featuring everything from vineyards to breathtaking Chateaux and the best places to stay in Auxerre are well-positioned to make the most of both of these.
