Tauck has unveiled its European trips for 2015 including 40 land journeys and a new small-group itinerary highlighting Italy’s Puglia region. Also planned are a pair of in-depth, six-day, World Cities explorations of Paris and Rome. The new “A Week in… Puglia” itinerary is limited to an average of just 24 guests per departure, and it is Tauck’s first-ever tour of the region.

Tauck’s eight-day itinerary is priced from $3,990 per person, double occupancy, plus airfare. The tour begins and ends in Bari, with departures operating from March through June and in September and October. Tauck also reports it will double its World Cities portfolio next year with the addition of in-depth explorations of Paris and Rome. Like the earlier London and Florence itineraries, “World Cities… Paris” and “World Cities… Rome” are six-day, city-specific tours with daily sightseeing “tracks” that each explore a different cultural theme. World Cities journeys also feature a small group size (an average of 24 travelers), and each operates with multiple departures per year. “World Cities… Paris” (from $4,690 per person, double occupancy, plus airfare) includes five nights accommodations at the InterContinental Paris Le Grand Hotel with 2015 departures from April through October.
With departures from March through July and again from September through November, “World Cities… Rome” (from $4,290 per person, double occupancy, plus airfare) has sightseeing tracks delving into the city’s history.
Like all Tauck journeys, the new European itineraries are fully inclusive, with accommodations, sightseeing, admission to all attractions, ground transportation (including airport transfers), luggage handling, most meals and gratuities, and more included in the price. Tauck also said it is encouraging its past guests to make their 2015 European travel plans early with its Gift of Time offer. This lets returning Tauck guests extend their 2015 European journey with a complimentary hotel night added to either the beginning or end of their of Tauck itinerary, provided they book prior to Jan. 2, 2015 (new bookings only; other conditions apply). Details on Tauck’s European land journeys (plus selected European river and small ship ocean cruises) are highlighted in the company’s new “Yellow Roads of Europe” brochure, currently mailing out to agents and consumers.
