Good to know
What's Included
Your yacht cruise should also provide complete peace of mind. This is why we cover port charges, all meals on board with accompanying beverages, complimentary Wi-Fi, and cover all gratuities on board and onshore. You’ll also benefit from a first-class English-speaking crew, and enjoy excursions led by knowledgeable, local guides.
Disabled Facilities
On board our luxury yachts, our lifts service all decks. Guests with limited mobility will require help from a companion, since the crew is limited. For further information, please contact one of our travel advisors.
Laundry Facilities
Guests on board our luxury yachts staying in the Terrace Suites and Yacht Suites can have two items laundered per day. Owner’s One-bedroom Suite guests can have up to four items laundered per day. Guests in all other suites and cabins can request laundry services for an additional fee.
Special Dietary Requirements
We endeavour to cater for all dietary requirements. We ask that you inform us of any requirements at the time of booking. Vegan While we do not offer separate menus, every dish is clearly marked, with suitable options to suit requirements at every meal. You can make dietary requests at the time of your booking, which are then reviewed. Personalised menus are also available. Certified vegan wines are also available on board each of our cruises; one white and one red. If you like, you can request something special at the time of booking so that it can be sourced before your cruise.
Smoking Policy
Smoking is not permitted in the cabins or any indoor section of any vessel in the Emerald Cruises fleet. There are areas on the external decks where smoking is permitted.
Wi-Fi & Internet Access
Complimentary Wi-Fi is available on board all Emerald Cruises luxury yachts throughout the public spaces, cabins, and suites. Please note, Wi-Fi connection strength and speed may change as the vessel moves.
Alcohol Policy
We have no problem with guests purchasing alcohol for consumption in their rooms. However, we do ask that personal drinks are not consumed in the communal areas of our luxury yachts.
LGBT Friendly
All our cruises are LGBT friendly. A selection of our destinations are famed for their LGBT-friendly atmosphere, including Amsterdam, Antwerp, Vienna, Cologne, Prague, and Budapest.
Baggage Allowance
Each guest is entitled to one piece of checked (hold) baggage, and the total sum of its length, width, and height must not exceed 160cm (62 inches) and the weight must not exceed 20kg (44lbs). Additional baggage may be permitted but this will be at the cost of the guest.
Packing Tips
We recommend casual and comfortable clothing. For sightseeing and walking tours, you’ll need comfortable shoes. For the winter months, you may need warmer clothing. Dinner is informal, but on certain evenings such as the Welcome and Farewell Dinners, you prefer to dress up.
