Preview of Queen Isabel - New Douro River Ship of Uniworld Boutique River Cruises

Later this week, Uniworld Boutique River Cruises will launch its newest river ship--the Queen Isabel. Actress Andie MacDowell is the godmother and will christen the new ship on Friday, March 22 in Porto, Portugal.

Following the christening, the Queen Isabel will sail a series of 10-day Douro River cruise tours of Spain and Portugal until the river cruise season ends in November. The Douro River is one of Europe's most spectacular rivers, and this ship and cruise tour should be a memorable vacation.
