New ships & experiences: Emerald unveils 2027 Europe brochure

Emerald Cruises & Tours has unveiled its 2027 Europe River Cruises brochure, inviting Canadian travellers to discover Europe’s waterways in comfort and style.

In 2027, guests will enjoy more choice, with new ships, new itineraries, and an extended season offering even more inspiring ways to explore Europe’s rivers.

The new Itineraries include:

11-Day Douro Highlights: Porto, Salamanca & the Wine Valley

(Porto to Porto | Departing: June – October 2027)

8-Day Sensations of the Seine & Normandy

(Paris to Paris | Departing: March – October 2027)

14-Day Waterways of the Netherlands & Belgium with Copenhagen

(Amsterdam to Copenhagen | Departing: March 2027)

New ships & experiences

In 2027, Emerald Cruises will welcome two new Starships, expanding its European fleet to eleven:

Emerald Nova will join Emerald Radiance on Portugal’s Douro River, introducing an extended itinerary that explores the region in greater depth, with two sailing options for added flexibility.

The ship will span 80 metres (262 ft) and accommodate up to 110 guests across 55 staterooms and suites.

Emerald Lumi will debut on the Seine River, a purpose-built ship tailored to this iconic waterway, offering a refined way to explore destinations such as Paris, Rouen and Honfleur.

Its custom design allows access to sought-after ports, giving guests the opportunity to step ashore and explore these charming towns with ease.

More time & flexibility

A more relaxed pace of travel is made possible with additional overnight stays and later departures on select itineraries, allowing for deeper exploration of each destination and more time to enjoy evenings ashore.

An extended sailing season also introduces departures in February, March, October, November and December, providing opportunities to experience Europe with fewer crowds.

These quieter months offer a unique perspective, from changing seasonal landscapes to festive sailings featuring Christmas markets and holiday traditions.
