Description

Uniworld River Cruises’ regal boutique liner, River Queen, is a beautiful vessel that first set sail in 1999, and has since undergone a full refurbishment in 2010.

River Queen sails through the rivers of some of the most fascinating countries in Europe, including Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and France.
