Dear Vacations To Go Customer,

I'll start today's newsletter with a brand-new offer from Emerald Cruises. The company provides an exceptional value for its cruises on renowned rivers like the Rhine, Danube and others.

Book by March 24 to take advantage of this attractive deal:

Save up to $3,250 per couple on a wide variety of 2023 itineraries. Receive an additional discount on certain cabin categories for a total savings of up to $3,650 per couple. Plus, the deposit amount required to book is reduced by 50%.

The price of your cruise covers onboard meals, gratuities, airport transfers, shore excursions in every port, Wi-Fi, bottled water stocked daily in your cabin and wine, beer and soft drinks with lunch and dinner.

Emerald's river ships have heated swimming pools with retractable roofs (this space converts to a movie theater on some evenings), as well as balcony suites that open to the outdoors with the push of a button. The fleet is equipped with bicycles that guests can use to explore ashore.

Expertly guided excursions in port include EmeraldACTIVE hiking, biking and canoeing activities and the EmeraldPLUS program, which helps passengers explore the destination's culture in depth. For example, on Sensations of Lyon & Provence, guests can hike through local vineyards in Tournon, embark on a canoeing trip in Avignon and enjoy a regional wine tasting and Provencal dinner on board the ship.

Emerald will introduce new family river cruises on the Rhine and Danube this summer. These thoughtfully designed itineraries feature fun and exciting activities for the whole family, such as archery lessons at Schallaburg Castle, a cooking class at a farm in Bratislava, a geocaching tour of Heidelberg and a cable car ride up Ehrenbreitstein Fortress for impressive hilltop views.

In addition to river cruises, Emerald also offers upscale yacht cruises in attractive destinations like the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and Central America. The company's intimate vessels accommodate up to 100 guests each and feature modern oceanview staterooms with deluxe amenities. Each ship boasts spacious lounges, spa and fitness facilities, an infinity pool and daily entertainment. The yachts are also equipped with Zodiacs, snorkeling gear, paddleboards, floating platforms and water trampolines. To see all of these sailings, click here.
