About S.S. Bon Voyage
S.S. Bon Voyage is Uniworld’s Super Ship for Bordeaux, rebuilt in 2019 from a 2006 hull. At 361 feet she carries 122 guests with a staff of 51 and is designed to immerse guests in French culture, art and wine from the grand entrance, clad in polished wood with brass details and a hand-crafted balustrade. The emerald tones of Le Salon Champagne bar are inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s Villa Majorelle, and every stateroom was redesigned with cool marble bathrooms.
She suits wine travelers. La Brasserie, in natural green with pops of yellow inspired by Paris’s Bouillon Pigalle, serves traditional bistro fare; Le Grand Fromage offers menus of the local cuisine from locally sourced ingredients; and La Cave des Vins is an intimate room for food and wine pairing dinners on request. The Soleil Deck has what Uniworld calls the only infinity pool on the rivers, with poolside service and open-air cooking demonstrations at Le Café du Soleil.
S.S. Bon Voyage sails round trip from Bordeaux on the Garonne, Dordogne and Gironde estuary. Her 2026-2027 program is the 8-day Brilliant Bordeaux cruise to Cadillac, Pauillac, Blaye, Bourg and Libourne for Saint-Émilion and the Médoc, plus the 18-day Wine Roads of France & Portugal from Bordeaux to Lisbon with S.S. São Gabriel, and the Bordeaux leg of the 22-day Ultimate France. SmartCruiser adds bonus onboard credit on sailings where Uniworld allows it, not available booking direct.
