On February 6, 2025, Uniworld announced a new cruise for 2025 called “Magical Parisian Holiday”:
From receptions at countryside chateaux to a concert in the Rouen Cathedral,
several of the excursions on this itinerary have been arranged to create
a private, intimate experience exclusively for Uniworld guests.
Sample Bénédictine—an herbal liquor with a fascinating backstory—at the
“factory palace” where it is produced, view the Gobelins tapestries at
Château Bizy, and learn about the lives of French royalty on
tour of the secret apartments at Versailles.
French Christmas markets have their own distinct flare, celebrating local
produce and cuisine—but of course, as you sip vin chaud and snack on
bûche Normande, you’ll find plenty of handmade decorations
to bring home for the holidays.
Meet the ateliers of Rouen, sip cider with a farmer in Normandy, learn
about a traditional style of broom weaving, and discover unique souvenirs
and gifts while we dive into the rich legacy of French craftsmanship.
Warm hues of red, pink, and dark polished wood give the S.S. Joie
de Vivre a cozy-meets-cosmopolitan atmosphere that will make for
the ultimate luxury Christmastime experience. Imagine how
beautiful she’ll be decked in garland.
For the itinerary and if you’re interested in this cruise, then feel free to request a quote today!
Edit: I forgot to add the “Craftmanship” section of the email that Uniworld sent me.
