“One of my favourite things about Ama is the dining they offer on-board, the food choices change every evening and they have something to suit all guests. A must try is the Chef’s table which is a tasting restaurant, this is a really personal experience with the chef and with fellow guests. It’s included in the price and can be booked on-board as soon as you arrive!”
Rebecca, Specialist Product Executive
“I stayed in a balcony suite and the first thing I should point out is the bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in, perfect for laying on the bed watching the world go by as you cruise along to your next destination in true comfort. With suite guests benefiting from a dedicated butler service, he took note of my preferred beverages and stocked the mini-bar each day accordingly. Luxurious Asprey toiletries mean there’s one less thing for you to have to pack when sailing with Uniworld.”
Kat, Cruise Concierge
“From the moment I stepped aboard Avalon Envision, I felt welcome. The crew were always so happy to help and soon knew your names and favourite drinks for the evening. They recommended places to visit while in port and were keen to find out how we had spent our days once we returned, something I think you’d only get on a river cruise!”
Jo, Specialist Product Executive
Whether you’re drawn to the carefully planned itineraries, or you are eager to explore iconic landmarks like the ancient Pyramids of Giza or the classical charm of Vienna, these cruises offer it all.
