Overview
The Emerald Waterways fleet welcomed Emerald Sun in 2015. As the fourth of Emerald's Star-Ships, you can enjoy an intimate river cruising experience as you sail along the rivers of Europe with a maximum of 182 fellow guests onboard. Light and airy public areas are complemented by welcoming dining venues, serene bars and lounges and plentiful onboard leisure facilities. The Sun Deck is the hub of the ship whatever the weather, thanks to its retractable roof. Enjoy relaxing times as you sunbathe on deck or indulge in a spa treatment in the wellness area. Shape up with a workout in the fitness centre or enjoy a leisurely stroll around the walking track. Days in port reveal a selection of included excursions or why not explore independently on one of the available complimentary bikes? The 92 staterooms and suites are spread across three beautifully appointed decks - the Horizon Deck has Emerald Panorama Balcony Suites, Grand Balcony Suites and the Owner's One-bedroom Suite; Vista Deck has Emerald Panorama Balcony Suites; and the Riviera Deck has Emerald Staterooms and Emerald Single Staterooms.
