Uniworld Boutique River Cruises To Debut New Ships in 2027

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises is adding three new ships to its fleet.

The new-build Super Ships are set to debut in 2027, sailing through Europe on waterways like the Rhine, Main, Danube and Douro rivers.

The new ships will follow in the footsteps of several other new vessels for Uniworld Boutique River Cruises, including the S.S. Emilie, which is scheduled to launch in 2026, and the S.S. Elisabeth, which will debut this year.

The brand also launched the S.S. Victoria in 2024.

The new builds will be inspired by prominent figures with strong connections to European regions—like the S.S. Emilie, which is inspired by renowned Austrian painter Gustav Klimt and named after his life partner and muse, Emilie Flöge.

“2027 will mark an extraordinary milestone for Uniworld as we complete our transformation into a fully Super Ship fleet with the addition of three incredible new builds,” says Ellen Bettridge, president and chief executive officer of Uniworld Boutique River Cruises.

“Our focus has never been on simply adding more ships, but on continually raising the bar on the luxury river cruise experience," Bettridge continued. "These new vessels will embody our unwavering commitment to innovation and craftsmanship, delivering something truly unparalleled for our valued guests—where no detail is too small.”
