    Asked on February 7th, 2024

    What are prices for dingle traveller

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • Uniworld Boutique River Cruise CollectionOperatorWritten February 2024

      I can see that the 01 Sep, 2024 is still available and all cabin categories can be booked. As this cruise is operated by S.S Joie de Vivre, I'll quote you the Classic cabin in single occupancy which is the lowest price available - It has a shoulder-high fixed window and the total is $14,816 AUD.

    Dave

    Asked on January 15th, 2024

    Why are there so many other prices for the same tour?

    Price / Availability
    • Uniworld Boutique River Cruise CollectionOperatorWritten January 2024

      The price you can see on the tour page is "Starting from" price. This means it will reflect the price of the cheapest cabin available on that specific date. Some cabins will be sold out on specific dates so the next cabin's price will be shown which will reflect as more expensive than the other dates. Pricing could also differ due to the season and the demand.

    Cathy

    Asked on April 25th, 2023

    Are there any balconies that you can sit outside ? I was going to book a french balcony double bed choices are twin or single?

    Accommodation
    • Uniworld Boutique River Cruise CollectionOperatorWritten April 2023

      I'm afraid this ship doesn't have any cabins with an outside balcony, but it has outdoor areas on the communal decks. The French balcony cabin has a floor-to-ceiling window. To answer your question about bedding, all cabin categories except the Suite have a Queen-sized bed (which can also be separated into 2 twin beds). The Suite cabin includes one King-sized bed.

    • Uniworld Boutique River Cruise CollectionOperatorWritten January 2023

      We have plenty of economical options available. For Normandy please find a couple of options. For Spain and Portugal, we can offer several options. Should you like any of the options mentioned, please let us know and we shall be more than happy to provide pricing and the relevant details.
