Family-friendly river cruise brochure launched
Uniworld has launched a dedicated family-friendly river cruise brochure online after tripling its family-friendly cruise options.
The online brochure includes 11 new family-friendly departures in 2016 including cruising the Rhine, the Danube, the Seine and Po rivers.
The river cruise operator says it has seen more parents and grandparents wanting a family holiday, which includes culture, as well as an increase in demand for multigenerational cruises.
On board the cruise ships, children can try their hand at dessert making with the ship’s pastry chef, take a VIP behind-the-scenes tour with the Captain, taste local soft drinks with the resident Soda Sommelier or take part in craft workshops and fun local language classes.
The Young Travellers Lounge is complete with a PlayStation, a great selection of games, movies and jars of sweets.
Every family-friendly cruise itinerary also features on board visits from local children or teens who introduce guests to the daily life of their culture.
Parents can also treat themselves to a romantic evening onshore leaving children in the hands of two onboard Family Hosts for Junior Cruisers (ages 4-11 years) and Young Cruisers (ages 12-18 years).
