If you’ve always wanted to tour the majestic elegance of the Venice Lagoon, then Uniworld’s S.S. La Venezia is the only vessel for you.

Following a complete redesign, Uniworld relaunched River Countess as S.S. La Venezia in 2020. Embodying the timeless elegance of Venice, this luxurious ship offers an intimate and unforgettable experience cruising the canals and waterways of the Venetian Lagoon.

Step onboard and be transported to a world of Venetian artistry, with opulent décor inspired by the city’s rich history and artistic heritage. Murano glass chandeliers, hand-painted murals, and Fortuny fabrics reminiscent of the early 20th century create a truly immersive Italian experience. Large windows throughout the ship bathe the public areas in natural light and offer captivating views of the iconic landmarks.

S.S. La Venezia even boasts a stunning rooftop terrace with a swimming pool and bar, allowing you to cool off and admire the Venetian skyline in style.

Dining onboard the S.S. La Venezia is a celebration of Italian gastronomy, with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients and regional specialties. La Cantinetta serves up gourmet meals prepared with culinary artistry, while Ristorante Rialto or Harry’s Bar & Lounge offer relaxed settings for enjoying light bites, afternoon tea, or simply savouring a refreshing drink. But, if grabbing a cool glass with special views is your style, then the Panini Bar is the spot for you.

The S.S. La Venezia offers a delightful exploration of fine Italian cuisine while you travel the lagoon.

Ristorante Rialto is the main dining venue, serving exquisite gourmet meals with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients. Alternatively, you can choose to elevate your experience by booking a table at La Cantinetta on the Mazzorbo Deck and tuning in to delectable plates and delicious wine pairings.
