Capital Cities of the Danube
The great Danube River, once the lifeblood of empires, has been home to Europe's greatest cities for eons. Join us on a journey spanning the four capital cities that sit along the banks of the Danube—glittering Vienna, charming Bratislava, eclectic Budapest, and storied Belgrade. As we go, we'll contrast the hustle and bustle of city life with blissful countryside views and stops in a couple of our favorite towns in between.
Uniworld is one of the most luxurious river cruise lines in existence, operating a fleet of 13 unique, opulent and lavish six-star river ships.
The company was founded in 1976, becoming part of the Travel Corporation in 2004 – a group which also includes luxurious Red Carnation Hotel.
The cruise line operates on the waters of Europe, Arica and Asia, and each Uniworld ship is inspired by its destination.
Sailing the Danube River, the next member of our Super Ship™ fleet will be inspired by master Viennese painter Gustav Klimt. In his honor, we’re naming the vessel after his beloved muse, Emilie Flöge. When she debuts in 2026, the S.S. Emilie will bring elements of Klimt’s signature style to our guests, with dramatic hues, Art Nouveau elements, and stunning pops of gold. Guests who book a Grand Suite and the adjoining Deluxe French Balcony next door can see their stateroom transformed into an incredibly spacious 2-bedroom suite.
