A new ship and two new itineraries highlight Titan's 2017 preview river cruise brochure in conjunction with Uniworld

A brand new ship, the S.S. Joie de Vivre, and new cruise itineraries in France and Germany headline the 2017 preview brochure of European river cruises for Titan (0800 988 5873, www.titantravel.co.uk) in conjunction with Uniworld.
 
Out now, the brochure also features a range of money saving offers to reward early bookers with savings of up to £500 per person for bookings made before the end of May 2016. It’s one of Titan’s longstanding principles that early bookers get the best holiday prices and for those who have travelled on a Uniworld river cruise before there are additional monetary benefits with River Heritage Club discounts of between £100 and £170 per person depending on the length of the cruise.

The aptly named S.S. Joie de Vivre, which is set to launch in April 2017, will reflect the French “joy of living” philosophy and their profound appreciation for food, wine, art and music. The new boat will sail the popular 8-day Paris and Normandy itinerary, from Paris to the French coast at Caudebec taking in the beautiful fishing villages of Normandy and Monet’s famous garden at Giverny. When in Paris, it will be able to dock right in the heart of the city due to its slightly shorter length at 125 metres, rather than the traditional 135 metre design. With weekly departures from April to November 2017, prices start from £2,099 per person (5 November 2017 departure) including a saving of £500 per person if booked by 31 May 2016. The cost includes flights, 7 nights’ all-inclusive cruise on the S.S. Joie de Vivre, excursions, transfers and the VIP Home Departure Service*.
 
​Everything from the ship’s décor and design to its farm-to-table cuisine and superb local wines is being created by the team from Uniworld’s sister company, Red Carnation Hotels and will feature French inspired handcrafted furniture, rich fabrics, antiques, art, gilded and wrought-iron accents blended with modern-day conveniences. The vessel’s Le Club l’Esprit will come complete with a cinema and a surrounding pool with a hydraulic floor, which can turn into a dance floor or outdoor cinema at night. Dining venues include Le Restaurant Pigalle and La Cave de Vins, a vinoteque for private dining and wine-pairing dinners.
 
Luxuriously appointed staterooms will feature two elegant Royal Suites, eight Junior Suites, and 54 staterooms for a capacity of up to 128 guests. Each butler serviced suite has been designed with its own signature style and will feature enhanced amenities and services.
 
Adding an alternative cruise along the River Seine is the brand new 10-day ‘Paris and Impressions of the Seine’ itinerary. Perfect for the art connoisseur or novice alike, this trip sails through the bucolic French countryside to visit the village where Vincent Van Gogh spent his final months; admiring the views over Honfleur that Eugene Boudin immortalised; and strolling through Monet’s famous gardens in Giverny. Rounding off the holiday with two nights in Paris. There are departures throughout 2017 from March to November, prices start from £2,499 per person (8 November 2017 departure) including a saving of £500 per person if booked by 31 May 2016. The cost includes flights, 9 nights’ all-inclusive cruise on the River Baroness, excursions, transfers and the VIP Home Departure Service*.
 
Also new for 2017 is the 10-day ‘Rhine-Main Discovery and Munich’ itinerary. Delving into the best of southern Germany for the first time this fascinating cruise along the rivers Rhine and Main visit important cities of the country’s culture and heritage. Two nights in the old Bavarian capital of Munich sets the tone for an itinerary that reveals beautiful imperial palaces, magnificent gardens and enchantingly crooked half-timbered homes all the way to Cologne, where an abundance of attractions, from its Roman foundations to the soaring filigree twin spires of its famous cathedral, await. With regular departures from May to November 2017, prices start from £2,199 (3 November departure) including a saving of £400 per person if booked by 31 May 2016. The cost includes flights, 2 nights in a Munich hotel, 7 nights’ all-inclusive cruise on the River Ambassador, excursions, transfers and the VIP Home Departure Service*.
 
Sailing the familiar 8-day ‘Enchanting Danube’ itinerary for 2017 is Uniworld’s award-winning S.S. Maria Theresa. Launched in 2015 the ship will offer views over a backdrop of the Austrian Alps, lush vineyards, regal cities, ancient castles and hilltop villages, on a river which has been the inspiration to countless musicians and artists over the centuries. Waltzing its way along the Danube, it will sail from one captivating city to the next and call in at charming villages in Austria’s stunning Wachau Valley. With weekly departures from March to November 2017, prices start from £1,899 (12 November departure) including a saving of £400 per person if booked by 31 May 2016. The cost includes flights, 7 nights’ all-inclusive cruise on the S.S. Maria Theresa, excursions, transfers and the VIP Home Departure Service.
 
On selected dates for some itineraries Uniworld has added a further layer of luxury with its ‘Connoisseur Collection’ and ‘Monarch Collection’. Offering, at no extra cost, a range of additional excursions, such as a hosted private reception by a Habsburg princess at her castle, they provide supreme value for money and reward guests with exclusive once-in-a-lifetime experiences on a limited number of departures.
