UNIWORLD Boutique River Cruises has released a new train-only itinerary, as part of its Cruise & Rail program for next year.
The operator will be offering guests a rail-only journey on the Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express from Moscow to Vladivostok, as one of the boldest itineraries in its second year of its Cruise & Rail program.
Following the success of last year’s rail-also itineraries, guests can now ride across Russia from east to west through the Ural Mountains and along the shore of the largest freshwater lake in the world, Lake Baikal.
The world’s longest single-train journey, the 15-day itinerary stops in Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Lake Baikal, UIan Ude and Khabarovsk, and even ventures into Mongolia, to visit the capital, Ulaanbaatar.
The itinerary includes stays at two five-star hotels – the Four Seasons Hotel Moscow and Lotte Hotel Vladivostok.
Departure dates are 27 Jul 2022 and 06 & 21 Aug 2022.
Other new experiences in the Cruise & Rail program for next year include the Castles of Transylvania, which will connect the Golden Eagle’s Danube Express train with Uniworld’s Enchanting Danube cruise onboard Maria Theresa.
Eight different departures for this itinerary are offered next year, with guests able to choose from either a 12-night pre-cruise rail option starting with a one-night hotel stay in Budapest, or a post-cruise rail option for an 11-night trip starting in Passau.
Highlights on this trip include visits to three castles, dinner at Bran Castle of Dracula fame, and a visit to the capital of the Transylvania region, Cluj-Napoca.
Uniworld’s second new Cruise & Rail itinerary connects the all-new La Venezia with the current four-night Zurich to Venice Cruise & Rail itinerary.
The company will also operate a Venice to Istanbul and vv eight-night itinerary from Jul to Sep, travelling through nine countries including Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Bulgaria, and including a two-night hotel stay in Istanbul.
