Emerald Cruises is nominated for the British Travel Awards

July 28, 2022

We are delighted to announce that Emerald Cruises has been nominated as the ‘Best Cruise Line for River Cruise Holidays’ in the British Travel Awards 2021/22.

The Emerald Cruises team are proud to continue delivering the excellent service and small ship experience which has seen us win several awards throughout our history.

The Emerald Cruises story

Founded in 2013, we launched our first innovative river cruising Star-Ship, Emerald Sky, the following year. Emerald Sky became our first boutique floating hotel, allowing our guests to explore Europe’s many charms.

In the following years, we have welcomed a further seven European Star-Ships into our fleet, traversing Europe on the Danube, Rhine, Main, Moselle, Rhône, and Douro rivers – and our dedicated Southeast Asian Star-Ship, Emerald Harmony, has been specifically designed to navigate the iconic Mekong River.

Our stellar service, luxurious amenities, and esteemed reputation has seen us win many an award throughout our time, and we have now taken this reputation to the ocean with the launch of our ground-breaking first luxury yacht, Emerald Azzurra, in 2022, with her sister yacht Emerald Sakara due in 2023.

Our awards

At Emerald Cruises, we are constantly innovating new ways to help our guests see more of the things they love, as well as discovering new treasures. Our aim is to bring our guests the very best of what the world’s rivers and coastlines have to offer, pairing a suite of generous inclusions with immersive destinations and experiences.

This is reflected in our cabinet of awards, trophies and accolades, with recognitions from Cruise Critic, Which?, The British Cruise Awards, and many more.
