Exclusive for Mail on Sunday readers: Dance along the Danube and meet Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag
Strictly returns to our screens on Saturday, with the celebrity line-up including Olympic hero Adam Peaty, Loose Women panellist Judi Love and comedian Robert Webb.
But one professional who won’t be gracing the dancefloor this year is Anton Du Beke, as ‘the King of Ballroom’ will be taking on his new role as a judge. However, that doesn’t mean your chances of seeing him perform live are over.
We’re giving you another opportunity to join Anton and his long-term dance partner and fellow Strictly favourite Erin Boag on an exclusive eight-day Danube river cruise.
Views to a thrill: Spectacular Budapest on the Danube
A stylish Grand Balcony Suite on Emerald Cruises Star-Ship
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’ll see Anton and Erin perform at an intimate and historic venue in the Austrian capital, and the pair will take part in a dance masterclass aboard your ship.
Anton and Erin will also host a question-and-answer session, during which you can ask them about their lives and careers and find out what goes on behind the scenes on Strictly Come Dancing. One reader said of our previous trip: ‘It’s been such a wonderful experience seeing Anton and Erin perform. I cannot imagine anything better.’
