Emerald Liberte Ship Information
With the success of their Emerald Star-Ships on the Rhine, Main and Danube rivers, Emerald Waterways launched a brand new ship, the Emerald Liberte, in the amazing culinary, cultural and historic destination of France. With no overnight sailings, relaxed itineraries and plenty of time to explore on your own, this is the perfect destination to river cruise.
Custom-built to provide the most exhilarating and authentic experiences cruising through France, the Emerald Liberte skilfully navigates the rivers Rhone & Saone. The standards of service, attention to food, and knowledge of wine you'd expect in France are sewn into the very essence of the Emerald Liberte - providing onboard experience comparable with world class boutique hotels.
Completing the Sensations of Southern France itinerary, the ship exudes the same relaxed spirit as the lands which surround the rivers it sails upon. Travelling from Lyon to Avignon, the Emerald Liberte explores culturally-rich and enigmatic cities before dissecting the wine regions and charming Mediterranean settlements of France.
All of the amenities that you are used to such as open-air balconies, spacious suites and staterooms, the heated swimming pool with retractable roof at the rear of the ship which converts into a cinema, fitness center and massage & salon combine to make your experience on this Emerald Star-Ship in France a complete package. There's a spacious Sun Deck with comfortable lounge chairs, a putting green to work on your game and a walking track to burn off the calories enjoyed both on and off ship!
Compare and marvel at the unique variance of France; its romantic settings, historic villages, stunning scenery, rich flavors and rolling vineyards. After boarding the 138-passenger Emerald Liberte, spend the next day exploring Lyon, France's gastronomic capital. Sail on to Tournon to taste the world-renowned wines of Beaujolais and Burgundy; marvel at the grandeur of the Palais du Pape in historic, picturesque Avignon; and be awe-struck by the splendor of the Roman-era Arles Colosseum.
