By guest blogger Steve NewmanTo experience any country only by car is to miss out large amounts of its history, culture and heritage. Gently following the course of the world's major rivers has always been a pleasant way to while away the day and is one of the most popular forms of cruising and one of the most educational.
Passing and visiting castles, vineyards and cities such as
Cologne without the worry and stress of being behind the wheel is simply just the perfect way to do it. Combine that with fine wines, excellent cuisine and all-round luxury (plus a major discount in this case), and you have a wining formula on your hands.
The elegant, high-end boutique hotel like ships of
Uniworld River Cruises such as
The River Princess (above) now have just such an incentive. Pay in full before October 31 and you can get a massive £1,200 discount for a couple travelling in their Category One staterooms and suites.
With an average capacity of 130 guests and crew ratio of one to each three guests, plus locally sourced gourmet foods and quality wines, you can see why Uniworld have a reputation for style.
And, with more than 500 departures on 35 itineraries, their ships can be found on 9 rivers in 16 countries in Europe and
Egypt. Many of them have full open-air private balconies that, with a touch of a switch, will raise the glass to create a private conservatory in cooler weather.
Beats the car any day of the week!
