Group travel on the rivers of Europe has enjoyed an upswing in popularity among North American travelers, with families, affinity groups, and friend circles looking to share a travel experience with people they know and trust. A group with Emerald Waterways can be as small as five cabins – or as large as a full ship charter. Special group rates and group air promotions are available, and booking a group allows for one free sailing for every nine paying guests. With Emerald Waterways’ Group Value Points program, group organizers may also tailor their guests’ experience with a range of amenities, such as onboard credit, drink packages, and additional discounts.
Emerald Waterways is also taking bookings for the 2022 Mekong River cruise season, with sailings through Cambodia and Vietnam take place aboard the line’s newest Star-Ship, Emerald Harmony.
