Uniworld Nabs Best River Cruise For Families
Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection has earned recognition for a fourth year running as Travel + Leisure’s “Top River Cruise Line for Families” in its coveted 2015 World’s Best Awards. With 13 departures created specifically for families in 2016, Uniworld is leading the charge for the growing trend of multi-generational travel. Uniworld’s commitment to delivering superior and innovative experiences is evident by its No. 1 ranking for the fourth year in a row with regards to its all-inclusive multi-generational family cruises.
“We are honored to be selected by Travel + Leisure readers as the top choice for families in the river cruise industry,” said Guy Young, president of Uniworld. “Uniworld pioneered family river cruising in 2009 with the expansion of our superior cruise collection. The demand for multi-generational programs has since increased at an unprecedented rate, and we continue to expand upon the frequency and exclusive experiences offered on these itineraries. We are debuting new all-inclusive family departure itineraries in 2016.”
