Emerald Cruises launches wine and arts-themed river itineraries

Emerald Cruises has adapted three of its most popular itineraries to create new holidays that focus on the arts, culture and wine-making history of European rivers.

It has added the special interest holidays to the second edition of its 2022 European river cruising brochure.
