Prepare to indulge in a journey like no other as two titans of luxury cruising, Uniworld and Seabourn, join forces for an extraordinary collaboration that seamlessly marries the best of river and ocean travel. For 2026, an exclusive 14-night Venice and the Mediterranean Sea cruise package invites discerning travellers to luxuriate in back-to-back itineraries aboard the elegant S.S. La Venezia and the exquisite Seabourn Quest—a true celebration of refined exploration and bespoke experiences.

A First in Luxury Cruising: River Meets Ocean

This innovative partnership marks a pioneering moment in luxury travel: the fusion of immersive river cruising with the expansive elegance of ocean voyages. Guests will begin their adventure with a seven-night voyage on Uniworld’s S.S. La Venezia, cruising the serene Venetian Lagoon and jewels of the Veneto. Here, the opulence of a boutique river ship blends effortlessly with intimate excursions that reveal Venice’s hidden treasures—including an exclusive, after-hours private visit to St. Mark’s Basilica and a private wine tasting at one of Europe’s oldest estates, Dominico di Baglio.

Following a swift and seamless 20-minute private coach transfer, guests will embark on the Seabourn Quest for seven nights of Mediterranean grandeur. This exceptional vessel sets sail from Venice to Athens, exploring stunning Adriatic and Grecian gems such as Croatia’s charming Vodice, the dramatic fortress town of Kotor, and the Venetian-influenced port of Nafplion. Both ships promise the hallmark all-inclusive luxury, highly personalised service, and elegant surroundings that define the reputations of Uniworld and Seabourn.

Uniworld’s fleet, renowned for its sophisticated décor and immersive cultural experiences, provides an unparalleled river cruise atmosphere inspired by impeccable Scandinavian design. Meanwhile, Seabourn’s ocean yachts, including the intimate Seabourn Quest, embody understated luxury with an intimate guest capacity fostering personalised service and exquisite comfort.

Exclusive Luxury Extras and Extensions

Travellers can further enhance their voyage by adding a three-day extension in Slovenia, including a stay at Ljubljana’s sublime Intercontinental Hotel alongside visits to the iconic Lake Bled and the mystical Postojna Caves. The extended Slovenia, Venice & the Mediterranean Sea itinerary is the perfect complement to this journey of history, culture, and indulgence.
