CARP Announces Exciting New Partnership with Emerald Cruises - Seite 2

"In addition to the unparallelled service and unique excursions, our guests can also enjoy select cruises hosted by renowned personalities,” said Patricia Wu, Marketing Director for River Cruises at Emerald Cruises. “A perfect example is our upcoming river cruise through the heart of France hosted by the acclaimed Canadian celebrity chef, Michael Bonacini and his son, Oscar. This exclusive culinary journey will have passengers enjoying Lyon and Provence in the spring as it sets sail in April 2025.”

"Journeys aboard our luxury yachts are truly transformative,” said Jo-Lee Shantz, Emerald’s Director of Marketing for Ocean Cruises. “Our guests come away from their trips having had a true adventure, with memories and stories for life.”
