AmaSonata boasts some of the most advanced designs in the river cruising industry. This intimate ship is able to accommodate just over 160 guests with most cabins featuring AmaWaterways’ signature Twin Balconies – a French balcony adjacent to a step-out balcony for superior views of your river destinations. Travelers can enjoy culinary menus created by Chaîne des Rôtisseurs in the Main Dining Room, or choose from two Wine Bar restaurants, a casual al fresco bistro, and an outdoor Sun Deck. While the sun is out, Avoya Travel guests can enjoy a heated sun deck swimming pool with a refreshing swim-up bar; and when it is time to explore the shores of your destination, you can utilize AmaSonata’s complimentary bicycles, guided bike tours, and various small group excursions.
