THE popular Uniworld Boutique River Cruises and Seabourn Cruise Line combination voyages (CW 19 Aug) are returning next year, the river brand has announced.
Uniworld and Seabourn have collaborated in the past to bring river and ocean combinations to luxury travellers, with next year’s itineraries to bring together the river cruise line’s Venezia (pictured) and the ocean brand’s Seabourn Ovation.
Three new itineraries will be offered next year, including ‘The Wonders of the Adriatic & the Venetian Lagoon’.
The 16-days cruise from Athens to Venice will begin with an eight-night voyage from the Greek capital to Fusina aboard Ovation, exploring ports in Croatia, Montenegro, and Slovenia.
Guests will then be transferred from Fusina into the heart of Venice to continue their adventure through the city’s lagoon on board the 150-guest namesake river ship Venezia.
This sector will offer time to savour the islands of Burano and Chioggia, as well as ample time to explore Venice.
Also introduced is ‘The Best of Italy, Croatia & Malta with Slovenia’, which sails for 19 days from Ljubljana to Civitavecchia.
Passengers start with three nights in the Slovenian capital, with day trips to Lake Bled and Postojna Cave, before transferring to Venezia for seven nights cruising the lagoon.
Guests will then be transferred to Fusina to embark Ovation, where they will visit ports in Malta and Italy.
The last new cruise offered for next year will be ‘The Best of Italy, Croatia & Malta’, sailing for 16 days from Venice to Rome, combining the lagoon cruise with a coastal journey through Italy, Croatia, and Malta. MS
