Dear Vacations To Go Customer,

Explore remarkable cities, charming villages and magnificent landscapes with Emerald Cruises & Tours, a company that provides exceptional value with its sailings on the Rhine, Danube and other rivers.

Vacations To Go customers can book the line's highly inclusive river cruises at special low prices:

Save up to 78% on river cruises departing through 2027. Book by April 26.

The price of your cruise covers delicious onboard meals with wine, beer and soft drinks at lunch and dinner, along with gratuities, Wi-Fi, excursions in every port and airport transfers.

Emerald's state-of-the-art ships have heated swimming pools with retractable roofs (this space converts to a movie theater on some evenings), as well as balcony suites that open to the outdoors with the push of a button.

Guided excursions in port include EmeraldACTIVE hiking, biking and canoeing activities and the EmeraldPLUS program, which allows passengers to explore the local culture in depth. On Danube Delights, for example, guests can join a Slovakian family for coffee and cake in their home or participate in a guided cycling tour in Vienna. The fleet is also equipped with bicycles that guests can use ashore.

Emerald will introduce a brand-new ship this year, the 180-passenger Emerald Astra. The vessel features refined accommodations and amenities like Emerald's other ships do, along with a sleek updated design that focuses on both style and functionality. In 2027, the new 112-guest Emerald Nova will join sister ship Emerald Radiance on the Douro River.

In addition to river cruises, Emerald offers upscale yacht cruises in destinations like the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. These intimate vessels accommodate up to 128 guests each, and all staterooms and suites offer ocean views and deluxe amenities. You'll enjoy spacious lounges, spa and fitness facilities, an infinity pool and daily entertainment. The ships also have Zodiacs, snorkeling gear, paddleboards, floating platforms and water trampolines.

Our customers can save up to 59% off the regular price of Emerald's yacht sailings.
