Uniworld and Seabourn Partner for Luxury River/Ocean Cruise Itinerary

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises and Seabourn have partnered to create a single itinerary that combines river and ocean cruising. The partnership is a result of research, commissioned by Uniworld, that found that 85% of its customers had also booked an ocean cruise.

The 2026 “Venice and the Mediterranean Sea” package pairs a Uniworld “Venice and the Jewels of the Veneto” sailing aboard La Venezia with a one-week journey on Seabourn Quest, sailing from Venice to Athens.

“Bringing together river and ocean cruise is a global first for the luxury cruise space, and we are beyond excited to be delivering this new opportunity to guests and agents,” said Chris Townson, Uniworld’s UK and Europe managing director, as reported by UK-based ttgmedia.com. “Our research told us that there is lots of crossover between Uniworld and Seabourn guests, so it makes absolute sense for us to deliver a package that offers the best of both worlds.”

The 15-day itinerary will be available twice — on July 5 and August 30, 2026. Highlights include visits to the Venetian lagoon islands of Burano, Mazzorbo, and Torcello, as well as an after-hours VIP visit to St. Mark’s Basilica.

After their river cruise, passengers will transfer via a private coach to Seabourn Quest. Ports visited during the one-week trip include those in Croatia, Montenegro, and the Greek islands.
