EmeraldACTIVE included activities

Savour the local flavours of Europe

Our chefs lovingly craft their delicious menus using seasonal and regional produce influenced by the surroundings of the cruise on which you’re travelling. From decadent five course dining, to light bites with breathtaking views, we believe food plays an important part in your travel experience, which is why we also include selected wine, beer and soft drinks with lunch and dinner.

Reflections Restaurant

Begin your mornings with a hearty breakfast, offering hot and cold favourites as well as fresh fruit and cereal. A morning of exploration is followed by a delicious lunch back on board where you can choose from regional delicacies, as well as international classics. Dinner is a celebration, offering an enticing à la carte menu, and our special welcome and farewell dinners are a great way to create new friendships with fellow guests in the most charming of settings.

The Terrace

A beautiful decked area at the front of our Star-Ships, The Terrace provides a lovely retreat from which to enjoy a light snack or refreshing drink. Depending on the Star-Ship, this partly indoor and outdoor space is a spectacular vantage point from which to soak up the scenery, whatever the weather. This peaceful setting is also a great spot to enjoy a glass of local wine or beer with your loved ones or new-found companions.

Complimentary drinks

Complimentary drinks with lunch and dinner is all par for the course and our wonderfully attentive team will always be on-hand to help you choose a drink to suit your chosen meal, whether it’s beer, wine or a soft drink that’s to your taste. Our sommelier carefully handpicks our wine selection each evening, sourced from local and regional vineyards.

Drink Packages

Offering superb value, our range of on board drink packages are available to purchase from the moment you book your cruise. Choose from Champagne, wine and beer packages, or enjoy unlimited on board drinks* with our Premium Drinks Package.

The best in the business

As much as we want you to be inspired by every destination you visit, we also want to inspire you. Our chefs are experts in their field, while our restaurant, bar and house-keeping team are trained to the highest level. As your personal encyclopaedia, storyteller and translator, your cruise director will share their experiences, to make sure you don’t miss a thing, while our local guides will provide insightful commentaries as you stroll the cobbled walkways, narrow alleys and bustling streets of spectacular cities and quaint towns.
