And they won’t have long to wait either, as all cruises will embark on their respective trips in 2025.
“Travellers have demonstrated an increasing desire for more specialised and unique experiences,” Ellen Bettridge, President and CEO of Uniworld, said.
“We are expanding our portfolio to further cater to a range of interests, passions and communities.”
MUSIC CRUISE
Uniworld’s Music Cruise will offer up exclusive ‘Music of the Danube’ sailings on August 3 and November 2 aboard the ‘Enchanting Danube’ itinerary.
The voyage will come complete with a Sound of Music tour in Salzburg in Austria, a spine-tingling concert at Abbey Durnstein and a yodeling workshop.
Travellers can experience all of these pinch me moments for £2,665.

The package is tethered to the ‘Brilliant Bordeaux’ itinerary and comprises 18-hole rounds at Cabot Bordeaux and St. Emilion.
Buyers will also enjoy a shared caddy service and a sumptuous gourmet dining experience after a sapping day on the course.

OCEANS OF FUN
Meanwhile, holidaymakers can also opt to secure their place on the MSC World America.
This voyage is another exciting new cruise ships launching next year and promises to take your breath away, quite literally.
That will be on the water slide that starts with a scary 90-degree drop.
Packing in 6,769 passengers and more than 30 places to eat and drink, World America will be island-hopping in the Caribbean from Miami starting in April, with prices from £779pp for seven nights.
Next up it’s Norwegian Cruise Line’s Norwegian Aqua, a lively ship where fun-seekers can ride the first hybrid rollercoaster and waterslide at sea.
The ship has lots of places to eat, even more places to drink, with no one telling you what to wear, and a sports complex that becomes a nightclub in the evening.
Aqua holds 3,571 passengers and will be sailing from Port Canaveral in Florida to NCL’s private island in the Caribbean from April, with seven-day prices from £1,041pp.
The World’s Biggest Cruise Ship
The Star of the Seas’ sister vessel Icon of the Seas was launched by Royal Caribbean earlier this year.
It weighs 250,800 tonnes and is longer than The Shard is tall at 1,198ft in length.
It has seven swimming pools and 22 restaurants among the on board offerings for its 7,600 guests.
One of those pools is the largest ever built for a cruise ship. There’s also a swim-up bar, and not one but two infinity pools, both engineering firsts.
Kids’ clubs will keep little ones happy while parents enjoy the sun.
However, families will also have plenty of chances to have a ball together with arcades, laser tag, mini golf and the largest ice rink at sea all among its attractions.
At the front of the ship is the multi-deck glass AquaDome.
It provides floor-to-ceiling ocean views, as well as a 55ft waterfall tumbling into a pool that by night promises thrilling aerial acrobatics and daring dives.
Meanwhile, the ship’s Royal Theatre features a West End-style production of the Wizard of Oz, and there are endless live music and theatrical performances, day and night.
There are 28 different types of room for guests to stay in. Some have an ocean-view balconies, while others overlook the ship’s Central Park, which has 30,500 plants, trees and flowers between shops and restaurants.
