S.S. Bon Voyage

Max Passengers: 124
Ship Type: River Cruise Ship
Operated by: Uniworld

Reviving Uniworld's River Royale, the S.S. Bon Voyage offers guests a new perspective on luxury European river sailing from Bordeaux. One of the many brand-new features you will find on this elegant ship is a cafe inspired by the world-famous Bouillon Pigalle restaurant, serving up classic French fare with a modern twist. A new swimming pool and lounge area are perfect for taking a refreshing dip and relaxing with a drink in hand. At the same time, an inviting casual eatery serves light dishes throughout the day and hosts cooking classes led by onboard chefs. The SS Bon Voyage's passenger capacity has been decreased to 124, with the addition of four large rooms, additional dining places, and a stunning Soleil Deck.

The S.S. Bon Voyage is notable for its elegant tones throughout the ship. You can see it in the Yves Saint Laurent-inspired Le Salon Champagne Bar. The lobby will immediately attract your eye. Its finely polished wood and subtle brass details are as thoughtful as the ship's other elements. The dining area is very wonderful, like being in a fairy tale. When you dine at La Brasserie, you're experiencing French cuisine at its most authentic.

The cabins are on the smaller side compared to other river ships, according to experienced river cruisers. Fortunately, the ship's magnificent design, complete with new marble bathrooms and elegant public areas accented with brass details, make up for it.

This was our first trip to South America and we were a little nervous. But Adventure Life made things so easy! All our questions were answered before we left, and our guide, Vidal, was amazing! He gave us enough space to explore without rushing us along. He also knew where the best picture taking opportunities were, which was great.
