Exclusive for MoS readers: Meet Anton and Erin as you sail the Danube
Exclusive for Mail on Sunday readers: Meet Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag as you dance along the Danube
The news last month that Anton Du Beke is on the list of professional dancers for this autumn’s series of Strictly Come Dancing means we’ll be treated to a 19th year of seeing the ‘King of Ballroom’ in action. And he’s set his sights on the Glitterball Trophy, with plans to go one better than his runner-up spot in 2019.
If you’ve always wanted to meet Anton and see him perform live, here’s another chance to join him and Erin Boag, his long-term dance partner and fellow Strictly favourite, on an exclusive eight-day Danube river cruise.
After flying to Budapest, you’ll travel on a stylish Emerald Cruises Star-Ship, with stops at Linz in Austria and the Unesco World Heritage-listed town of Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic. You’ll sail past terraced vineyards and apricot orchards en route to Melk and Durnstein in Austria, after visiting three of Europe’s great capitals: Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest. You will watch Anton and Erin perform at an intimate and historic venue in the Austrian capital, and the pair will take part in a special interactive dance masterclass aboard ship.
