LOS ANGELES, June 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The first stunning vessel of Crystal River Cruises, the World's Most Luxurious River Cruise Line™, has earned top recognition from one of the most distinguished authorities on luxury lifestyle. According to Robb Report, Crystal Mozart is among the "Best of the Best" travel experiences available to discerning travelers, in a spotlight piece that highlights the return of "slow travel." Crystal Mozart debuted for Crystal River Cruises in summer 2016, marking an entirely new standard of luxury on the rivers of Europe and in the river cruising industry overall. The elegant vessel is appointed with the plush amenities, butler service, Michelin-level culinary options, and unsurpassed crew-to-guest ratio for which Crystal has been celebrated for more than 27 years.
Robb Report's annual "Best of the Best" guide highlights the world's finest new automobiles, yachts, hotels, watches, wines and much more, including exclusive travel experiences. The complete guide is published in the magazine's June 2017 issue, available now.
"It is a tremendous honor to be recognized by the team at Robb Report, as like Crystal, the publication's standard of luxury exceeds the rest," says Crystal CEO and president, Edie Rodriguez. "Crystal Mozart marks the beginning of a new era in river cruising as the 'Queen of Europe's Rivers' and the new standard bearer of true luxury in the industry."
River cruising has always represented a relaxed, elegant manner of travel, boasting numerous opportunities to disconnect and immerse oneself in new cultures.
