Frankfurt Gourmet Food Cruises Reviews

The Cruise offered us access to particular countries / towns that we wished to visit. The Emerald Dawn offered the Cabin standard (Grand Balcony Suite) that appealed to us. A bit of a rocky start. The transport to ship was impossible to locate (for us and others). A broad range of excursions were offered. Recommend in particular the Skoda Tour ( of Slovakia in Communist times) and the ...

We chose this cruise for relaxation and panorama. We got plenty panorama but not much rest. The biggest problem was the departure times of the visits, 8am or 8.30am.

We chose Emerald as we had cruised with them previously and were very pleased with our holiday but the customer support pre cruise was nearly non existant An email from the company was received about 3 weeks prior to departure asking us to complete a couple of questions including who to notify in an emergency and for flight details - as they had booked the flights this appeared to be ...

I was really disappointed with Emerald. They advertised their food as being high-end cuisine. It was really average. I had their lunch in the dining room on the first two days of our 14 day cruise, and never returned. There is a lot of food, but it was all of mediocre quality. No complaints about breakfast, there was a lot of variety and it was excellent. Their dinners were not high-end cuisine. ...
