The boat itself is a trip down memory lane to the 1930s: rich in the HISTORY, DESIGN and HERITAGE of his life. Emperor Cruises purpose is to ensure that you experience every moment with us by being treated as kings and queens, indulging in experiences such as music, fine arts, architecture, culture, fine cuisine, history, and outdoor activities where everything is included…
