WJ Tested: Uniworld River Countess Review
Stylish. Elegant. Classic. Tasteful. Chic. Swank… These are all descriptors we overheard from fellow passengers regarding the interior design of Uniworld River Countess, and we completely agree!
River Countess Lounge
The 134-passenger River Countess was inaugurated in 2003 and was completely remodeled to her current voguish, yet warm and relaxing style in 2012. Previously River Countess cruised the Rhine and Danube rivers of Europe, but as of April 2013 she is the floating boutique hotel for passengers booked on Uniworld’s new Po River and Venetian Lagoon 7-night cruise.

In our opinion, River Countess offers the finest accommodations available for passengers as they explore the city of Venice and regions of Veneto and Emilia-Romangna.
