A classic journey on the Rhine, Main, and Danube rivers promises spectacular landscapes, rich culture, and fascinating history, where world-class cities are complemented by romantic towns.
The iconic Danube River guides you on a gentle journey through Europe’s cultural highlights. Sail the picturesque Wachau Valley and visit Ceský Krumlov, known for its charming streets and castle. Drive around Vienna’s famous Ringstrasse to see the city's impressive architecture. In Budapest, enjoy a local tasting of regional products and learn about the folklore of Hungary and Slovakia. In Kalocsa, visit a Puszta Horse Show, enjoy lunch in the home of a local Croatian family in Osijek and, in
Belgrade, enjoy a guided city tour, before a Serbian folklore show on board. Taste Romanian wine, attend a choir concert in Arbanasi, and journey by road to Bucharest.
Our Europe Star-Ships are each perfectly sized for navigating the continent’s winding waterways, with space for no more than 180 guests on board. From the three-tier atrium to the heated swimming pool that seamlessly transforms into a cinema, our Star-Ships are more than just a river ship.
Founded in 2013, and first sailing as Emerald Waterways in 2014, Emerald Cruises is an award-winning travel operator specializing in deluxe river cruises and luxury yacht cruises. Just one year later, in 2014, the first Star-Ship, Emerald Sky, set sail.
Our extensive fleet of Star-Ships have been custom-built to sail Europe’s iconic Rhine, Main, Moselle, Danube, Rh?ne, Saône, and Douro rivers, as well as the majestic Mekong River in Southeast Asia, with each ship featuring a range of stylish innovations.
Unwind in your contemporary suite or stateroom, sample the finest cuisine in our elegant dining venues, relax on our spacious Sun Deck, and enjoy the river breeze from our indoor pool with a retractable roof that transforms into an evening cinema*.
In March 2022, our groundbreaking luxury yacht Emerald Azzurra welcomed her first guests, followed by her twin sister Emerald Sakara a year later. The yachts have been specially designed to provide unique access to the fascinating ports and harbors that only small yachts can reach. The yachts feature an open-air infinity pool, a wellness deck with a spa and gym, and a marina platform with a variety of water toys.
Whether you’re traveling by river or sea, your luxury vessel will dock in the heart of amazing destinations.
This year, we celebrate 10 incredible years of Emerald Cruises by introducing the next generation of superyachts: Emerald Kaia.
