Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection has announced that it will introduce five new European itineraries in 2009, with Uniworld’s brand new voyages ranging from nine to 32 days, aiming to showcase Europe’s most fascinating, and historically rich destinations.

In addition to the new itineraries, Uniworld will introduce a beautiful new boutique hotel-style cruise ship, the River Beatrice, in March of 2009.
“By adding the River Beatrice to our fleet, we are able to expand our product offering and provide guests with cruises that range from slightly over a week to over a month visiting some of Europe’s most spectacular sights,†said Guy Young, president of Uniworld.
“Our cruises offer travelers in-depth experiences and levels of hospitality that simply aren’t available on large cruise ships.â€
In 2009, Uniworld will incorporate some exciting new enhancements, especially for food and wine connoisseurs and a new “Epicurean Adventurer†program will be available on select itineraries, and will offer private wine tastings, special wine and food pairing dinners, and culinary demonstrations designed to reflect the flavors of the regions visited.
Uniworld will also offer a new “Al Fresco†evening dining program on the sun deck.
Uniworld says that they provide all-inclusive vacation packages that protects travelers from currency fluctuation, maximizes their vacation dollars, and ensures travelers aren’t faced with surprise expenses for transportation, meals or accommodations while they’re on vacation.
On every Uniworld river cruise, guests enjoy elegant riverview staterooms, gourmet cuisine with fine wine served during dinner, award-winning hospitality, fully hosted shore excursions by English-speaking guides, and all transfers on arrival and departure days.
