S.S Clara

S.S. Clara is one of Uniworld's newest river ships, scheduled to launch in 2028, bringing the elegance of a floating boutique hotel to the rivers of Northern Europe. Named after Clara Peeters, one of the most influential artists of the Dutch Golden Age, the ship draws inspiration from her richly detailed still-life paintings, known for their vibrant florals, exquisite craftsmanship and gilded table settings.

Carrying just 154 guests attended by 57 crew members, S.S. Clara offers an intimate and highly personalised style of river cruising. Her thoughtfully designed interiors reflect the artistry and refinement for which Uniworld is renowned, while spacious accommodation ranges from elegant staterooms to luxurious Grand Suites. Guests reserving a Grand Suite together with an adjoining Deluxe French Balcony stateroom can even create an exceptionally spacious two-bedroom suite, ideal for families or friends travelling together.

Sailing the Rhine, Main and Moselle rivers, S.S. Clara journeys through some of Europe's most captivating landscapes, from the vineyard-clad slopes of the Moselle Valley and the castles of the Rhine Gorge to the canals of Amsterdam and the historic cities of Germany, Belgium and Switzerland. Itineraries include favourites such as Holland & Belgium at Tulip Time, Remarkable Rhine & Historic Holland, Scenic Rhine & Paris, and Rhine, Moselle & Belgium Grand Discovery, bringing guests directly into the heart of destinations that larger ships simply cannot reach.

Life onboard centres around exceptional dining, comfortable surroundings and meaningful cultural experiences. Gustav's Restaurant serves regionally inspired cuisine showcasing the flavours of the destinations visited, accompanied by carefully selected wines and locally sourced ingredients. Uniworld's all-inclusive approach includes gourmet dining, premium beverages, expertly guided shore excursions and attentive service throughout the voyage, creating a seamless and enriching travel experience.

Shore excursions are an integral part of every journey, with opportunities to explore medieval towns, historic castles, renowned wine estates, local markets and UNESCO-listed landmarks, often with exclusive experiences available only to Uniworld guests. Onboard, entertainment reflects the destinations visited, with local musicians, cultural performances, enrichment talks and relaxed evenings in elegantly designed lounges rather than large-scale cruise productions.
