First time river cruise for us. Had seen the commercials on television and we had always wanted to enjoy one. Emerald Waterways offered us half off and a drink package so we chose a 14 day sailing up the Danube starting in Budapest. Random knowledge which might help you in your choice: Ship sails under 2,000 bridges and goes through 68 locks on its way from Budapest to Amsterdam. A lot of ...

My husband and I just returned from one of our favorite holidays! We have been on several ocean cruises, which has become our favorite way to see the world. Unpack once; see multiple locations. However, this was our first experience on a river cruise and I'm sure it won't be our last. The Emerald Dawn cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam was amazing. All the staff on board were friendly and ...

This itinerary was at the top of my Bucket List. I looked as several different lines and was impressed at the cost savings with Emerald. We chose to spend two nights in Budapest before boarding the boat. This gave us time to recover from the overnight flight and to explore the Jewish Quarter on foot which was not part of Emerald's tour of the city. Never having traveled to Europe before, I ...

We chose the river trip firstly because it gave us an opportunity of seeing parts of Europe that we had not been to before without packing and unpacking. We arrived at Budapest and were met by representatives of Evergreen tours. The drive into the city to embark on the ship was not impressive, old drab stalinistic buildings. This disappeared the following morning when we toured the city proper. It ...

This was our first experience of river cruising after numerous sea cruises and we were not disappointed. The Emerald Dawn was a new ship having been lanched in April 2016. Arrangements for the pick up in Budapest were a little hectic but I think this was mainly the fault of the airport organisation rather than the Emerald staff. Our cabin was 329 and although smaller than those we were used to ...

The brand new Emerald Dawn sparkled with attention from the hard-working and friendly staff. Much more glam and sparkly than what I anticipated. We enjoyed the local entertainment that was brought on board in the evenings (eg. Hungarian dancers from local school, Romanian dancers) and the hilarious show the crew put on the second last evening of the cruise. Although I knew the cruise was likely ...
