Uniworld gears up for booking boom after celebrity TV appearance

The river cruise line's signature India itinerary will play a starring role in the first two episodes of Susan Calman's Cruise of a Lifetime on Channel 5

'India's Golden Triangle and the Sacred Ganges' and a luxury land tour of New Delhi, Agra and Jaipur star in the first two episodes, spotlighting the Ganges Voyager II as Susan heads aboard.

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises' UK & Europe managing director, Chris Townson, said the cruise line is well aware "from previous experience how powerful TV exposure like this can be in creating awareness and interest and we fully expect this to generate a big booking boom.

"We hope that our travel agent partners take the opportunity to watch it live or on catch up as we think there’s no better way to understand what our incredible itinerary has to offer, especially in Susan’s good company."

A dedicated India brochure has launched to anticipate the demand from Uniworld's appearance on the silver screen; the January 1st, 2026 departure of the itinerary featured in the programme will lead in at £6,239 per person.

Susan Calman's Cruise of a Lifetime will be broadcast on Channel 5 from January 3rd, 2025.
