The 90-year-old company initially launched its European River Cruising and Tauck Collection brochures with pound sterling prices last year. Tauck has now followed up with the unveiling of its first US and Canada brochure in UK prices. Tauck has also opened a reservations center in London and hired a travel trade team.
