AmaWaterways Reviews

A wonderful trip with great friends. Amawaterways is an incredible river cruise line from start to finish.

We enjoyed it a lot. The people, staff and sights were all wonderful. The only reason we didn’t give it a 5* is because we didn’t realize how many days we would spend on the water cruising rather than discovering sights. The pre trip in Amsterdam was 5* as well as the post trip in Lake Como.

I was disappointed in the biking options… the bikes were terrible ( they replaced them towards the end of the trip, resulting in two days when biking was completely cancelled). We really wanted to bike in Lyon and throughout the trip since it was ideal terrain. That, sadly, was not to be. Otherwise a very nice trip. Since it was just the two of us and they assigned the same seats and dining companions ( whom we didn’t know but were quite nice)it didn’t really lend itself to socializing. Oh and I am still recovering from the Covid I tested positive for on return?. No one’s fault.

The food was superb, the service was excellent, and the excursions fun and interesting. We enjoyed being with our friends on the cruise. We elt we were in good hands all around.

This was a trip of a lifetime and it lived up to our expectations. Everything was first class, from the food to the accommodations. The guides were excellent and AMA Waterways took great care of us. Robyn Jacobs, our travel agent, answered all our questions and was so professional. We cannot thank her enough!!

From cabin, to the workers on the ship, to the food service, to the excursions, really everything was exceptional, and I would highly recommend this cruise.

We had the best time! Great ship and crew. Good food and wonderful excursions.

From the two days Amsterdam pre-cruise to each stop along the Rhine, this was the most glorious and epic return to travel we could have hoped for.

Exploring some of the great cities of Europe by riverboat was everything we dreamed it would be. The excellent service we receive from staff, including our fantastic cruise Director David, was only excited by the many friends that we made. The food served was truly at a five star level. We look forward to our next adventure with AmaWaterways.

Amazing wonderful cruise!! Everything was perfect!

We had a wonderful trip

The boat and the crew were all great. We expected there to be more knowledge transfer on the trip. If you opt for the bike tour, it is for exercise not to pass on the same knowledge as you would get in a walking tour. Advertised you can always take bikes off on your own, though often docked in a location not conducive to bike riding; eg industrial. Expected more ongoing commentary while underway; only done during castle day. Few special guests brought on board, German / French rivalry would have been good earlier in the trip and given more time.

Food was very disappointing although service was great.

We had a wonderful 7 days aboard the AMA Siena from Basel to Amsterdam. The crew went above and beyond to meet all our needs. The food, drink and scenery were top notch. I highly recommend this cruise.

Perfect weather, wonderful Cruise Manager Nikola. Lots of sights to see and wonderful beer and wine tasting events. Will never forget it.

We had a wonderful and beautiful cruise through the Douro Valley - we highly recommend it! And if your cruise director is Iuri Viera - that's an added bonus!! He was fantastic!
