Emerald Waterways’ latest Star-Ship has embarked on its maiden voyage through Vietnam and Cambodia.

The 84-guest Emerald Harmony is the line’s first Star-Ship to operate outside Europe. As part of the launch guests who book before 20 September 2019 can save up to £2,250 per couple and receive unlimited free drinks on Emerald Harmony.

In addition, the line is supporting CLIA’s Cruise Month campaign by giving away 50 Emerald Waterways water bottles. The first 50 travel agents to make an Emerald Waterways Southeast Asia river cruise booking can claim their bottle by making a booking and emailing the reference to [email protected].

Emerald Harmony features a wellness area with spa, the Horizon Bar & Lounge, and Reflections Restaurant. Exclusive to the ship is the Lotus Lounge, an area for guests to relax.

Emerald Harmony is also the first Star-Ship to remove all single-use plastics. Initiatives include providing all guests with a complimentary metal water bottle to refill from water stations. The move will likely be replicated across the line’s European fleet.

There is still availability on the 19-day Treasures & Temples of Vietnam & Cambodia river cruise on Emerald Harmony, including the 5 October 2019 sailing, for £5,195pp. The itinerary includes Hanoi and Halong Bay, before joining the Mekong river through My Tho, Sa Dec and into Cambodia, ending in Siem Reap.
