UNIWORLD EXPANDS IT EUROPE PRODUCT OFFERING IN 2009

From the enchanting, romantic sights of Paris to the ancient castles and colorful holiday markets of the Rhine, Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection will introduce five new European itineraries in 2009. Uniworld’s brand new voyages range from nine to 32 days and showcase Europe’s most fascinating, and historically rich destinations. Following is the list of Uniworld’s new 2009 itineraries: ***Paris and European River Romance – 11 days – Paris to Nuremberg*** ***Paris and the Heart of Europe – 18 days – Paris to Vienna*** ***Paris and Grand European Waterways – 32 days – Paris to Bucharest*** ***Parisian Winter Holiday – 9 days – Paris to Paris*** ***Rhine and Main Holiday Markets – 11 days  – Nuremberg to Cologne*** 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.” In 2009, Uniworld will incorporate some exciting new enhancements, especially for food and wine connoisseurs. 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 provides 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.  Plus, with Uniworld’s Pay-In-Full and Early Booking Discount programs, couples who book a 2009 Uniworld Europe river cruise and pay-in-full for their trip before September 30, 2008, can save up to $2,000 and those who simply would like to place a deposit on a 2009 river cruise can save up $600 per couple by booking and depositing by November 30, 2008.
