Why take a cruise with Emerald cruises?
- All-inclusive luxury - from fine dining and drinks to excursions, gratuities, and Wi-Fi, most costs are included, making travel seamless and stress-free.
- Intimate experiences - smaller ships navigate rivers and coastal destinations that larger vessels can’t reach, letting you explore charming towns, historic cities, and hidden gems up close.
- Enriching excursions & culture - thoughtfully curated shore excursions immerse you in local history, art, cuisine, and traditions, often with guided tours that deepen your experience.
- Relaxed, personalized atmosphere - with fewer passengers than big ocean cruises, you enjoy attentive service, spacious cabins, and a calm, leisurely pace ideal for genuine relaxation. It almost feels like you are on your own private yacht.
All-inclusive service
Uncover cultural treasures from the comfort of your luxury yacht. Discover a wealth of generous inclusions and amenities both on board and onshore, from delectable meals, selected complimentary drinks, and even fascinating excursions and special experiences.
Intimate experiences
Emerald Cruises specializes in smaller, elegantly designed ships and yachts that can access rivers, canals, and coastal areas that are off-limits to larger ocean liners. This allows you to glide past breathtaking landscapes, historic castles, and picturesque villages right from your cabin window. You can dock in charming towns, stroll cobblestone streets, and experience the local culture up close without the crowds.
Enriching excursions & culture
Emerald Cruises’ carefully designed shore excursions immerse you in local history, art, and cuisine. Guided tours let you explore charming towns, iconic landmarks, and cultural traditions, turning each stop into a meaningful, authentic experience.
Relaxed, personalized atmosphere
Emerald Cruises’ smaller ships offer a level of intimacy and calm that’s hard to find on large ocean liners. With far fewer passengers on board, the service is highly attentive and personalized, allowing staff to remember your preferences and anticipate your needs.
