Good Value for your money

Although at first the price appeared high it’s not when you consider what is actually included: Breakfast Lunch Dinner Bar Snacks each evening Beer and Wine at Lunch and Dinner Tea/Coffee/Hot Chocolate, Cookies 24/7 Popcorn on movie nights. Tours with excellent tour guides. Local entertainment on board ship Professional, friendly, hardworking staff. We did the Danube from Budapest to Passau then a coach to Prague for 4 Days. Our trip included stops of some beautiful places with ample time to explore. Emerald is our β€œgo to” river cruise company which I strongly recommend to others to give them a try.

Our Duoro river cruise was excellent.

Our Duoro river cruise was excellent. All the staff were friendly, efficient and our every need was catered for. The bar staff were great fun. The cabin was comfortable and always kept clean and tidy. We were also impressed that a lot of the staff came from Porto. A beautiful experience. Thank you

It is almost impossible to find any fault with an Emerald cruise. The food is terrific and so are the crew. We have been on six or seven cruises with this company and have three more booked.

Enjoyable from beginning to end

Enjoyable from beginning to end. We enjoyed the cruise on the Danube last year so much that we are just back from another, this time on the Rhine and Mosel. Difficult to pick out any particular items, but I'd compliment the friendliness and efficiency of the staff, and the overall attention to detail.

Rhone Cruise 19th August 2023

Rhone Cruise 19th August 2023 We cruised down The Rhone from Lyon. Cabin was good and the staff very efficient and friendly. Lack of information pre cruise re the number of bridges across the river which meant the top deck couldn’t be accessed for much of the cruise. Very disappointing food which should have featured mainly French cuisine. The fish without exception was frozen from the Southern Hemisphere and very poor quality. The chef explained it was company policy to purchase frozen fish from there. Why would a cruise line lower its standards to save money like this. For that reason I won’t be cruising with you again.

Cruise was great

Cruise was great, as expected, with good company and excursions, as far as it went. Unfortunately we caught Covid and were hospitalized for six days, missing the last three days of the cruise, and had to be brought home by our son, but cruise staff packed all our stuff and had it sent to the hospital for us.
