provides truly unparalleled experiences through personalized

Carnation Hotel Collection, has enabled the company to tap into over 50

surpassed level of luxury that is employed throughout all channels, both
onboard and onshore.”

fleet is designed to reflect the regions to which they travel, and
personalized itineraries provide bespoke experiences. Each ship
encompasses sublime artistry and quality amenities that set Uniworld
apart, with original works from famous painters, master craftsmen and
furniture designers commissioned exclusively for Uniworld.

Uniworld provides a broader range of onshore experiences with a higher
degree of personalization than any other cruise line in Europe, ensuring
its passengers always find the experiences they seek. Uniworld’s Choice
Is Yours program offers a range of activities so that guests have an
array of options in each city that cater to both well-traveled guests
and first-time visitors. For guests who enjoy hiking and biking,
