Uniworld Boutique River Cruises is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2026 with a 50-night Rivers of the World itinerary.

Guests on this journey will sail on five of Uniworld's SuperShips on waterways in Europe and Egypt. 

The trip kicks off in Brussels on April 16, 2026, with a cruise on the new Emilie, a ship inspired by Austrian painter Gustav Klimt and named after his life partner and muse, Emilie Flöge. Guests will be among the first to experience the Emilie.

After a 10-night Dutch and Belgian waterways cruise to Amsterdam, guests will sail a Mystery Cruise on the second leg of the journey. The seven-night Mystery Cruise features new destinations and experiences that Uniworld hasn't offered before. The SuperShip for this cruise is a mystery, too.

The journey continues in France aboard the Joie de Vivre in Paris for a seven-night cruise on the Seine between Paris and Normandy. Then, guests board a first-class train to Lyon, where they will board the Catherine for a weeklong cruise on the Rhone.

Guests will spend three nights in the Mediterranean town of Cassis at the end of the cruise. 

The Rivers of the World itinerary concludes with a 16-night portion that includes a five-night stay at a luxury hotel in Cairo, a Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan on Uniworld's Sphinx, and and a trip exploring Jordan.

The 50-day itinerary ends on June 5.
