Uniworld unveils largest fleet expansion to date for 2027

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises has released details of its most extensive collection of new offerings yet, unveiling four ships and six itineraries launching in 2027.

New ships include three brand-new Super Ship builds, the S.S. Audrey, S.S. Marlene, and S.S. São Rafael on Portugal’s Douro River, as well as exclusive sailings on the Aqua Blu, marking the brand’s debut in Singapore and Indonesia.

Ellen Bettridge, President and CEO of Uniworld, said that: “2027 is shaping up to be a landmark year for us at Uniworld as we introduce four remarkable new ships to our guests and a range of itineraries that blend cultural immersion, luxury and adventure.”

Bettridge continued: “From honouring the timeless elegance of Audrey Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich aboard our newest Super Ships, to exploring the rich landscapes of Singapore and Indonesia with the Aqua Blu, these additions mark an exciting chapter of growth and continued elevation.”

As for Uniworld’s new ships, the S.S. Audrey and S.S. Marlene will join the fleet in 2027 with a similar layout to sister ship S.S. Emilie, debuting in 2026.

Joining them is the new S.S. São Rafael, a brother ship to the S.S. São Gabriel, expanding Uniworld’s popular Douro River voyages in Portugal.

The final addition to the fleet is the Aqua Blu, a sleek expedition yacht operated in partnership with Aqua Expeditions. With just two sailings per year, its exclusive voyages will offer rare access to the islands of Indonesia and Singapore.

In 2027, Uniworld will launch six new itineraries across Europe and Asia that will include Bali, Singapore & Indonesia Expedition; Paris, Prague & Germany’s Hidden Gems; Scenic Rhine, Paris & the Swiss Alps; European Gems; Grand Highlights of the Danube; and Castles Along the Rhine & Amsterdam.
