Dining on S.S. Beatrice

Dining in the main restaurant of S.S. Beatrice will be one of the highlights of your voyage. As riverscapes sweep by, you'll be treated to eye-popping scenery while you dine. 

The four dining options on board were inspired by famous Austrian composers, including:

• Mozart’s, the ship’s main restaurant, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. During the day, natural light floods in from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Seating is open for dinner, and diners have a choice of a starter, soup, main course and dessert. Fare includes chicken, seafood, steak, pasta and vegetarian dishes, while soups are more imaginative, such as the paprika goulash and Hungarian fish soup.
• Schubert’s, an 18-seat café at the ship's bow, offers guests shared plates from lunch through dinnertime. The cozy Austrian-styled eatery features menus reflecting the cuisine of the ship’s destinations.
• Wolfgang’s features tea, coffee, snacks and evening canapes in the lounge on deck 3.
• Max’s restaurant offers intimate cooking classes where guests can create local European cuisines alongside the chef for a fee of 50 to 90 euros. 

A final option is room service.

Each day you'll have a choice of included shore excursions or have the option to take an independent bike ride along the riverside path. The excursions are conducted by English-speaking guides using the QuietVox communication system. "Go Active" bike rides are offered through the use of Uniworld's pedal-powered (non-electric) bikes or those of a local bicycle tour company.

While aboard, passengers hang out, converse, read or sightsee from the sun deck. A few activities and lectures are held when the ship is sailing and light entertainment is provided in the lounge at night. A pianist plays background music in Wolfgang's lounge in the late afternoon. At night, live performances may include a local choir, dancers, singers and bands. In Budapest, you'll likely be treated to an exclusive concert by renowned pianist Balazs Bakos held in the lounge before dinner.

Another option is the Serenity River Spa, featuring a variety of treatments and massages at a cost of 50 euros for 30 minutes and up. There's also a small gym on deck 2.
