A FOCUS ON BEING GREEN
Cruise: A-ROSA River Cruises’ new E-Motion ship A-ROSA SENA, which will make a splash in May 2022, will feature new onboard technology to reduce the line’s environmental footprint. The ship combines a diesel engine and a separate electric motor, which is powered by batteries, meaning it can switch to battery power when approaching a port, enabling it to arrive silently and emission-free, in addition to other emission-reducing features. A seven-night Rhine Discovery – Amsterdam, Floriade Expo 2022 and Antwerp cruise departs June 11 2022 and September 17 2022 is priced from £2,499pp based on two sharing.
