GANGES VOYAGER II Overview
Ganges Voyager II set sail on the Ganges River in January 2016. Uniworld is the first major river cruise company to offer itineraries in India.
The 185-foot long vessel carries up to 56 passengers and has three decks. It’s the smallest ship in Uniworld’s fleet in terms of length. However, it’s about 4 feet wider than most European river cruise ships.
On the Ganges Voyager II, all staterooms are suites and the minimum size is 261 square feet, which is about 100 square feet larger than most standard staterooms on other vessels. Another added feature is that all staterooms have a French or Juliette balcony.
