Transcend Launches First Charter-Only River Cruise Ship for Groups
Transcend Cruises has introduced the first river cruise ship developed exclusively for the charter and group market, the Connect, following the ship’s official naming ceremony and inaugural sailing from Dordrecht to Zaandam, Netherlands.
“With the Connect, we are completely redefining river cruising for groups. Every detail of this ship has been purpose-built for meetings, incentives, conferences and exclusive events,” said Gregg Marston, CEO of Transcend Cruises.
“Our goal was to create a flexible, premium and sustainable platform that meets the needs of today’s event organizers while delivering experiences that simply cannot be replicated on land,” added Marston.
