The
History of Emeraude Cruise
In
1910 a paddle steamer called the Emeraude was
offering unforgettable cruises in Halong Bay
for visitors to what was then French Indochina.
The Emeraude was part of a flotilla owned by
the Roque family who had left Bordeaux in 1858
in search of adventure and fortune. Over a period
of more than 50 years they found both. After
several ups and downs including successful trading
and timber businesses, near bankruptcy and being
taken hostage by pirates, the Roque brothers
built Emeraude, Perle, Saphir, Rubis and Onyx
to ferry passengers and freight along the waterways
of Indochina and cruise on magnificent Halong
Bay.Today the Emeraude offers a regular cruise
service on board a luxurious replicasteamer
with 39 cabins meticulously designed to evoke
the nostalgic charm of colonial Indochina.

the sun deck, passengers can enjoy a soothing
foot massage while sipping a refreshing
cocktail and gazing at the rock formations
reflected in the crystal clear water of
the bay. The Emeraude’s huge paddle wheel
opens to reveal a swimming deck offering
passengers the opportunity to swim in
the calm waters of the bay surrounded
by the majestic scenery.At dawn, that
most magical time as the sun rises, the
soft and graceful movements of a t’ai
chi class on the deck complement the atmospheric
silence of the bay. |
