Watch as the latest river ship joins the Crystal fleet in Amsterdam

 

 

WHAT:  Crystal River Cruises will officially christen Crystal Debussy, the third of its four newly-built identical river ships during a VIP ceremony in Amsterdam this coming Monday, May 28. The occasion will feature Crystal president and CEO, Tom Wolber, the ship’s godmother, Broadway star Rachel York, and will be hosted by Vice President & Managing Director of Crystal River Cruises’ Walter Littlejohn.

 

Crystal will livestream the event via a Facebook Live feed on its Crystal Cruises Facebook page, allowing luxury travel enthusiasts from all over the world to welcome the newest member of The World’s Most Luxurious River Cruise Line. The complete video will also be available for viewing immediately following the original live broadcast.

 

Joining Wolber, York and Littlejohn will be guests sailing on Crystal Debussy’s “Splendors of the Rhine” voyage.

 

Crystal Debussy joins Crystal River Cruises, which was voted “Best River Cruise Line” by the readers of Travel + Leisure in the magazine’s 2017 World’s Best Awards. Sailing itineraries between Amsterdam and Basel, the 106-guest Crystal Debussy embarked on her maiden voyage along the Rhine River on April 9. Throughout 2018 and 2019, the ship will sail routes of seven and 10 days between Amsterdam and Basel along the Rhine and Moselle rivers, visiting Switzerland, Germany, Netherlands and Belgium.

 

Crystal’s new river vessels are the river cruising industry’s first and only all-balcony, all-suite, all-butler vessels in Europe, with every category of accommodation perched above the waterline. They offer Crystal’s acclaimed butler service in every room category, king-sized beds, Panoramic Balcony-Windows™, walk-in closets and dual vanity in the bathrooms in most categories, ETRO amenities, robes and slippers, and wall-mounted flat-screen HD TVs. Additional enticing features include farm-to-table cuisine in multiple, open-seating eateries: the elegant Waterside Restaurant, namesake Bistro cafés and the exclusive Vintage Room; and the Palm Court for entertainment, enrichment presentations and sweeping views of the countryside.
