River Cruise Information Being well-informed before your river journey ensures a smooth, enjoyable experience. Explore key details below and for further information visit emerald.cruises.faq or call 888-233-2042

Clothing

On board currency

Casual and comfortable clothing is ideal, with sturdy footwear for sightseeing and walking tours. In cooler months, a warm coat will be required, as will gloves and water-resistant shoes. Evenings are generally informal; relaxed clothing is suitable, though some guests may choose to dress more formally.

On board, any accounts can be settled in Euros, or by debit or credit card payment. American Express cards are not accepted.

Wi-Fi Connection quality and speed depend on the ship’s location and the number of users, so Wi‑Fi may be slow or occasionally unavailable.

Travel insurance Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended including cover against loss of deposit or cancellation fees. Policy details should be read carefully and carried while traveling. It is each guest’s responsibility to ensure cover is suitable and adequate for individual needs and vacation cost.

Health & vaccinations Guest health and safety remain a key priority, with handsanitizing stations and enhanced cleaning throughout each Emerald Star-Ship. In partnership with Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), local and government agencies, on board protocols are continually reviewed to meet and exceed the latest requirements. Health facilities, hygiene, and disease risks vary worldwide so individual medical advice should be sought well before departure. Please visit emerald.cruises/health-and-safety. Any pre-existing medical conditions or mobility difficulties should be disclosed at the time of booking to ensure suitable support and arrangements.

Plug sockets and voltage On board electricity is 220v and a European plug adaptor will be needed to use electrical items. All Emerald Star-Ship Cabins include a hair dryer.

Sun Deck Sun Deck access may be restricted when passing under low bridges or due to local authority requirements, and the deck may need to be closed for certain periods while cruising.

Mobility Emerald Cruises & Tours welcomes guests with disabilities and seeks to support a safe and comfortable experience, though some operational limitations apply on board and during shore excursions. Lifts serve three of the four decks, with the Sun Deck accessible only by stairs. Many tours involve coach travel, stairs and uneven surfaces, so guests with reduced mobility must manage these conditions independently or with a traveling companion. Guests with medical, physical or other special needs should discuss requirements with a travel advisor before booking.

Water levels High or low water, flooding, lock closures, unscheduled maintenance, or other unforeseen events may require changes to the itinerary. If sailing is not possible, disruption is minimised through alternative arrangements, which may include coach transfers, ship swaps, hotel stays, or alternative attractions, all subject to local conditions.

Bridges During the cruise, the ship may pass beneath a variety of bridges. For guest safety, the Sun Deck may be closed and railings, along with the captain’s wheelhouse, lowered to allow safe passage. Ample public spaces remain available to enjoy river views.

Side by side-docking In popular ports, your Emerald Star-Ship may be required to dock next to other ships. Access to shore can then involve walking through another ship and using stairs to and from the Sun Deck. Another vessel may also be positioned directly alongside overnight, so closing cabin curtains in the evening is recommended.

Itinerary deviations Minor disruptions may involve short stretches where sailing is not possible, coach transfers between ports, or changes to embarkation and disembarkation locations or Emerald StarShips. In some cases, coaches may be used for sightseeing while guests remain accommodated on board, or the ship may need to sail continuously without scheduled stops.
