Notable among the itineraries are new seven-night voyages, at least two overnight stays on most sailings and visits to some of the region’s oldest riverside villages.
“Travellers’ enthusiasm for Crystal River Cruises has been tremendous, as we have set a new standard of excellence,” said Edie Rodriguez, Crystal CEO and president. “We’re delighted to introduce even more choices for guests to enjoy the acclaimed Crystal Experience aboard a river voyage, and to further expand our offerings to meet travellers’ wishes and interests.”
