With generous inclusions such as meals, airport transfers, gratuities and a selection of excursions, you can simply relax and enjoy the journey, knowing the details are taken care of.
Dual Expertise in River & Yacht Cruising
Emerald Cruises isn’t just a river cruise line, it offers both luxury river voyages and intimate yacht cruising experiences. Their fleet includes custom-built Star-Ships for iconic rivers and elegant ocean yachts like Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara, giving travellers access to smaller ports and coastal destinations big ships can’t reach.
NEW Scenic & Emerald Loyalty Program
Emerald Cruises has refreshed and elevated its loyalty experience by combining the former Scenic Club and EmeraldEXPLORER programs into one unified membership: Scenic & Emerald Rewards. This new program is designed to be simpler, more rewarding and more flexible for discerning travellers who explore river, yacht and escorted land journeys across the world.
Generous Inclusive Value
Emerald cruises typically include meals, select drinks, gratuities and airport transfers, plus daily excursions as part of the fare on many voyages — offering peace of mind and excellent value for travellers who want a high-end, all-in experience without hidden extras.
Innovative Ship & Yacht Design
Across both their contemporary river ships and luxury ocean yachts, Emerald Cruises blends smart design with boutique-hotel style comfort. Whether sailing river or sea, guests enjoy thoughtfully designed spaces that combine relaxed luxury with immersive exploration.
Emerald Cruises & Tours offers a contemporary, boutique-style cruising experience that blends stylish ship design with immersive exploration at exceptional value. With intimate river ships and sleek luxury yachts carrying fewer guests, travellers enjoy personalised service, thoughtfully curated itineraries and access to smaller ports larger ships simply can’t reach. Combined with generous inclusions and a modern, less formal atmosphere, Emerald is ideal for travellers seeking refined comfort, flexibility and meaningful destination experiences without the ultra-luxury price tag.
