In the coming season, I talk about the 2017-2018 season, Crystal Cruises, the cruise ship company, will incorporate four new ships that will sail on as many European rivers. With this measure, Crystal Cruises is committed to river cruise tourism, which is so booming at the moment.
New baros to join the Crystal Cruises fleet will sail the Seine, Rhine, Main and Danube rivers, and are designed for this type of navigation. If you want to read more about the services offered and the characteristics of the boats, I recommend that you continue reading.
I will begin by describing the Crystal Bach and Crystal Mahler both with capacity for 106 passengers spread over 53 suites, all of them with panoramic windows above the waterline.
Then, slightly smaller are the Crystal Ravel ships and the Crystal Debussy with 39 suites that will carry 78 passengers.
Both boats have the same luxury features as their older brothers, with rooms with king-size beds, Egyptian cotton sheets, HDTVs, coffeemakers and butler service. Internet and laundry service are also included.
One difference from sea travel is that tip is included in the price of the river cruise, including the 24-hour butler. Also included are excursions and guides.
In the common areas of all boats there will be restaurants, who will base their menus on local specialties, bars with a select selection of wines and craft beers, spa area, gym center, where daily fitness and yoga classes will be given, outdoor pool and indoor pool.
Following the philosophy of the company, in river cruises we bet on luxury and exclusivity, so much so that it is offered as a complementary service to transport the passengers of the different cruise ships by private plane.
