Emerald Europe Cruise Reviews

What an outstanding cruise! No complaints. The boat, crew, tours, food were second to none. Very clean room with all you need to be comfortable. The food was top notch and as I have specific food needs, they met them and I felt very safe eating. The food was plentiful and the Chef Suggestions were always local or regional dishes. Nice touch. Wine pairings were very good, too. The crew ...

We chose this cruise line and time as it suited our time preference from Amsterdam to Budapest. The Luna is a new ship and it far exceeded our expectations The meals and food available is quite extent. We didn’t get a drinks package as we don’t drink too much but it probably is worth it if you do like a drink or two We had to change ships to the Destiny due to the low river levels ...

Did Budapest to Amsterdam originally scheduled on the Dawn but due to low water we were moved to the Sky. Since the boats are similar it was not an issue. The ship is modern and comfortable and the staff are excellent friendly and helpful. The passengers were mainly from Canada, Australia the US most in their 60s and up. Stayed in a Grand balcony suite which came with a separate balcony area plus ...

Wanted a river cruise and the Emerald line was recommended by friends. None of us had been to Porto or the Douro region so this cruise met all our interests. ALL the staff were incredibly friendly, efficient and attentive - with the ability to have fun with us. What an amazing team - truly a TEAM as they all helped each other when needed, no rigid demarcation of jobs. Nothing was too much ...

This was my second Emerald Cruise and I was not disappointed. The crew were friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel very welcome. The rooms were clean and well appointed. The pool was divine. The food was out of this world. The evening entertainment was great. The excursions were terrific. The trip was well organised from beginning to end and I felt I could be as relaxed or as active as I ...

We chose Emerald Cruises as we had done a Rhine Cruise with them in 2022 and we had a wonderful experience. The Douro Cruise was no different. The ship is spotless and well maintained. The entire staff are very accommodating and personable. My favorite excursion was the trip to Salamanca, it is well worth the bus ride. Dinner at the winery was lovely as well. There is not much in the ...

We were celebrating our Ruby Wedding Anniversary, so the Douro with an emphasis on port seemed very apt! The trip was great! Made great by the stunning ship, the outstanding staff, the wonderful scenery, delightful food and wine....I could go on! The Douro is quiet...it seemed like there was no river traffic at all for most of the cruise so it feels very special. Our excursions were really ...

Based on comments from friends we decided on an Emerald cruise. We chose the Douro cruise also from friends feedback about it being one of the most scenic routes. We were not disappointed. From the first day the staff were welcoming, attentive, informative and friendly. The plan for the day ahead was always communicated and there was no hard sell for optional extra expense trips! The food ...

I have nothing but gratitude and great things to say about the staff and service on the Emerald Luna. For first time river cruisers, we are now hooked and already looking forward to booking our next one! The ship itself is beautiful. The rooms are spacious, clean and well cared for by the room attendants. The service in the dining room was excellent, from the servers to the meals, an 11 out ...

We received information regarding river cruises and the itinerary on the Emerald cruise Sky on the Danube caught our attention. Read the many previous cruisers reviews and it appealed to us. We decided to book it for our 40th wedding anniversary. Our booking agent rivercruise was very attentive until we booked the trip, then it was very difficult getting answers to our questions from her prior ...
