December 15 - 2010 : Celebrating Spring Along the Rhine with Uniworld Boutique River Cruises
Spring has always been the favourite time to celebrate new beginnings - when nature shakes off the dull garb of winter and reminds us of how beautiful she can be as fields come alive with flowers and blooming trees. Spring is also the perfect time for personal renewal and rediscovery - for taking the time to indulge in a passion for art, architecture, history, and nature that you may not indulge in often enough.
Nothing celebrates the multi-faceted beauty and endless possibilities of spring quite as delightfully as the glorious profusion of tulips in the Netherlands. On award-winning Uniworld Boutique River Cruise’s unforgettable Springtime Along the Rhine cruise, you will visit one of the world’s most impressive public gardens, the Keukenhof Gardens, showcasing more than seven million flowers. You will explore the historic hamlets and romantic castle ruins that dot the shores of the UNESCO Rhine River Valley. You’ll delve into the vast holdings of the Van Gogh and Kröller-Müller museums and encounter poignant WWII-era history inside the Anne Frank House.
Plus, you will spend seven unforgettable nights aboard the luxuriously appointed River Empress. With a maximum capacity of only 134 guests, you’ll enjoy personalized hospitality every step of the way. Add in Uniworld’s elegantly appointed, award-winning riverview staterooms (many of which have French balconies); world-class cuisine with complimentary fine wine, beer, and soft drinks during lunch and dinner onboard; all transfers on arrival and departure days; and included fully hosted shore excursions with “Choice is Yours” customization options, and all you’ll need to do is unpack and settle in to the relaxing rhythm of a European spring.
Hurry and book Uniworld’s 8-day Springtime Along the Rhine as they are offering only four departures in 2012 from March to April, so space is limited. And by purchasing cruise and air with Uniworld, couples can save $800. This offer expires January 6, 2012.
