Uniworld Boutique River Cruises is adding to new ships – which formerly sailed as Crystal Bach and Crystal Mahler before becoming a part of the Riverside Luxury Cruises’ fleet – through a three-year charter agreement with Seaside Collection, Riverside’s parent.
The ships, the 110-guest S.S. Victoria and S.S. Elisabeth, are scheduled to debut in Europe as Uniworld vessels in 2024 and 2025, respectively.
“We’re thrilled to add two stunning new ships to the Uniworld fleet, beginning with the S.S. Victoria on the beloved Rhine, fulfilling our promise to maintain the best and most luxurious ships on the rivers,” said Uniworld President and CEO Ellen Bettridge.
“The S.S. Victoria and S.S. Elisabeth are unique vessels that we know our guests will love, featuring a modern design, some of the largest suites on the rivers, and an ambiance that exudes contemporary luxury.”
S.S. Victoria will inaugurate service in March out of Amsterdam on an eight-day “Holland & Belgium at Tulip Time” itinerary, which will explore ports in Belgium and The Netherlands
The vessel will then operate an eight-day “Castles Along the Rhine” itinerary rom Basel to Amsterdam, followed by a 10-day “Magnificent Moselle and Rhine’ cruise and an eight-day “Belgium Holiday Markets” sailing roundtrip from Brussels.
Details on S.S. Elisabeth’s 2025 itineraries will be announced at a later date, Uniworld said.
