Uniworld is offering you a sneak peak of their latest Super Ship, the S.S. Sao Gabriel, which will be the newest ship sailing on the Douro River.

“Evoking a fresh new design inspired by the majestic landscapes in Portugal and adorned with gorgeous Portuguese tiles, the S.S. São Gabriel will bring the destination to life for our guests, while maintaining the highest caliber of service and personalization,” says Ellen Bettridge, president & CEO of Uniworld in press materials.

The S.S. São Gabriel was designed to embody the Douro River Valley region through its decor and delectable food and wine. The entire top deck will offer all lavishly appointed suites enhanced with butler service, giving guests the option to dine at any time they’d like while enjoying the ship. Guests on S.S. São Gabriel will experience the UNESCO-designated Douro River Valley on the ship’s 11-day Portugal, Spain & The Douro River Valley itinerary sailing from Lisbon to Porto, while indulging in the best of Spanish and Portuguese culture and locally sourced cuisine.

“We have been partnering with The Travel Corporation’s family brands since 2017 and this year we are delighted to partner Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection to support the launch of their new super ship in Portugal,” says Miguel Moraes, global trade marketing rirector at Visit Portugal. “Our strategy is to promote all the regions of our diverse country that can be visited year-round. The luxury traveler is a key target for us as they have the propensity to stay for longer and spend more while on holiday in Portugal and this partnership with Uniworld allows us to meet this objective. We look forward to welcoming the S.S. São Gabriel in 2020 and the guests it will attract from the USA, Canada, UK and Australia.”

Uniworld’s additional 2020 Super Ships will take guests to Vietnam & Cambodia, Egypt and Northern Italy. The new vessels include the S.S. Mekong Jewel and S.S. Sphinx, both debuting in early January; as well as the S.S. La Venezia debuting in March.
