Crystal River Cruises

I wrote a couple of weeks ago regarding the news regarding Crystal Cruises and their plans to expand into luxury River Cruises, I have just seen an image of what the ship could look like and I must say wow wow wow, its looks very impressive, they are launching 2 river cruises vessels to launch in 2017,

The design of the new vessels seem to be like a yacht like design featuring large style accommodations and space to guest ratio than any other river cruise line, their trade mark six star service will continue onto these luxury ships,

The 70-suite luxury river yachts will be built by German shipyard Lloyd Werft.

Some highlights:

– 250 square-foot guest suites with walk-in wardrobes, American king size beds and bathrooms with double vanities

– Two 500 square-foot Penthouse Suites with added comforts and conveniences

– Spacious public areas, including Palm Court with dance floor and glass domed roof and a well-appointed fitness centre and spa

Itineraries, fares and bookings for Crystal River Cruises will be available beginning December 1, 2015.

Crystal’s new river vessels will deploy itineraries that maximize time in port for meaningful shore-side excursions and experiences.

Crystal will dedicate a portion of each cruise to sailing along some of the most picturesque rivers in central Europe – including destinations such as France, Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Belgium, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria,

I can’t wait for more details and pictures to be revealed and will share them with you, I hope I get chance to sample this as you all know I am a huge fan of Crystal watch this space…
