Larger Cabins For River Cruisers...

ms Swiss Emerald

Here's a heads-up for all you river cruising aficionados...  Tauck is doing some serious upgrades!  Instead of squeezing more guests into smaller spaces, Tauck is enlarging the cabins on their 110-meter Jewel riverboats in 2017 and 2018 to make more room for fewer guests.  

These upgraded riverboats will be known as the "Tauck Destination Fleet"  and will be committed to "provide guests with a superior destination experience aboard the finest riverboats in Europe".  And their signature feature will be an intimate club-like ambiance with behind-the-scenes access to exclusive cultural experiences while ashore.

Since these ships will be accommodating no more than 98 guests, we can expect a very personalized cruising experience.  Each ship will have a nice assortment of cabin selections and will be decked out (pun intended) with lots of elegant 'Tauckistic' features like french balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows opening to idyllic riverscapes.  For dining, in addition to the "Compass Rose", the ships will feature "Arthur's" (guess who that was named for ?), providing a second dining venue offering casual fare.

You also get the standard Tauck features which include sumptuous bedding and amenities custom ordered for your cabin, Molton Brown bath products, terrycloth robes, hair dryers, flexible dining times, al fresco dining, on the Sun Deck, unlimited complimentary beverages, onboard entertainment, complimentary Internet and email, a fitness center, bicycles aboard for use ashore, and on and on.

Of course Tauck has always been known for going beyond the expected and providing experiences that are innovative and inspiring.  It's pretty impressive that after 90 years in the travel industry they are still passionate about celebrating all that is good and wonderful in the world through travel.  As Arthur Tauck Sr.  said, "We will only be satisfied if you are."
