Fans of luxury river cruises should keep their eyes peeled for a new vessel that is set to join Uniworld Boutique River Cruises in 2026 for a European sailing season.
The new-build Super Ship, the S.S. Emilie, is inspired by renowned Austrian painter Gustav Klimt and named after his life partner and muse, Emilie Flöge.
Ellen Bettridge, president and CEO of Uniworld Boutique River Cruises, said in a release: “We’re thrilled to introduce a brand-new ship to our fleet in 2026, just in time to celebrate Uniworld’s 50th anniversary.”
She added that the “outstanding new vessel reaffirms our dedication to providing the best and most luxurious ships on the rivers”.
The S.S. Emilie will join other new Super Ships, including the S.S. Victoria, debuting on the Rhine and Moselle rivers in 2024 and the S.S. Elisabeth, debuting on the Rhine in 2025.
Programme details will be released in time to come.
