Uniworld jointly operates one river cruise ship, Douro Queen, in Portugal and partners with river cruise ships Litvinov and Taras Shevchenko in Russia; Egypt is under a charter program and Uniworld partners with Five-Start Victoria Cruises in China.  The ships crews on these ships are native speaking, but are Uniworld English speaking staffed.

Cruising along the Russia's Volga River, Europe’s largest and longest waterway, holds a special place in Russian history and in the hearts and minds of the Russian people. An important aquatic “highway” since Medieval times, the Volga has long served as a major route of trade, settlement and conquest. Peter the Great sailed along the Volga from Moscow to St. Petersburg approximately 300 years ago on a quest to bring Russia out of the Dark Ages. And centuries worth of Russian music and literature reflect the people’s deep feeling for the river.
