Uniworld spices up 2009 river cruises with an 'Epicurean Adventurer Program'

LOS ANGELES -- Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection is making Europe even more tantalizing in 2009 with the debut of their "Epicurean Adventurer Program" in which guests can indulge their passion for fine wines and gourmet foods.

Guests aboard a Uniworld cruise featuring the Epicurean Adventurer Program will enjoy a host of culinary delights including private wine tastings, special wine and food pairings, cooking demonstrations and unique onshore excursions.

On each Epicurean Adventurer cruise, guests will enjoy a special dinner prepared with the region's freshest ingredients and learn how to select the perfect wine to complement the meal. Guests will also have the opportunity to participate in cooking demonstrations led by master chefs who reveal trade secrets and techniques to help 'students' create their own gourmet dishes.
