Great trip! One of the bus rides was too long for one particular day trip. Otherwise excellent trip!

I enjoyed the cruise and the excursions. The menus on the ship were very good. The crew were very friendly and helpful. The guides were good for the cities.

This cruise was wonderful! Floating down the beautiful French countryside on the water was truly a gift. Each small town brought unique experiences and wonderful people. Really enjoyed going through the locks also. The staff and crew were all helpful and kind. Very relaxing, truly a vacation, that was unique.

The trip was wonderful . The one change I would suggest is somehow less bus rides. It seems that was where everyone was getting sick. We did a private wine tasting and throughly enjoyed . The ones through the cruise were too many people.

Wonderful friendly, kind people—ship’s staff, tour guides, other guests on the ship, shopkeepers, restaurant waitstaff, and the Provençal and Burgundians we encountered on the street. There was none of the big city brusqueness that you have to deal with in Paris. Beautiful countryside—lavender fields, vineyards, and pastures dotted with black and brown cows and white horses. Swans swimming serenely on the rivers as we passed. Stone farmhouses, centuries old, but still being lived in. Cathedrals, basilicas,and Parish churches. Roman built arenas and public buildings still being used. The fo

Overall, we had a lovely time. Learned a lot of history and saw towns and castles for the first time. The ship and crew were very accommodating. Our stay at the Toren in Amsterdam was the highlight. A great boutique hotel in a quiet and quaint part of Amsterdam. A predominance of rain did put a damper on some excursions and on-board activities. And making connections was a bit complicated on a couple occasions. Also, it became difficult to communicate with the travel insurer when we were in Basel and needed prescription medicine. On arriving home, my wife Nancy tested positive for Covid. The

The tours that were arranged in Lisbon were excellent. I had hoped to be able to walk the Alfama area, but the rain was torrential, and the wind was blowing at 30 mpm sideways. It was impossible to walk anywhere in the city. Once on the river, we could not travel beyond Requa due to turbulent waters. I was very disappointed to miss the excursion to Salamanca. However, the crew handled the situation with professionalism. The food was also excellent.

My wife and I did the Flavors of Burgundy river cruise on the Saone River in June 2024 with AMA Waterways. It was fantastic! Our trip started with an overnight in Lyon and then proceeded upriver to a different location each night. Each town we visited was very clean and picturesque and had lots of things to see. There were multiple tour options every day, including tours of the towns where we were staying, chateaus, vineyards, castles, and also bicycle tours. All tours that we attended were excellent. We learned a lot about French history and wine and winemaking, in particular. The excursions

The accommodations and food on the boat were fantastic and well-managed. The three star rating was the fact that we only sailed from Amersterdam to Cologne (overnight). Due to high water in the Rhine, we were bussed to Strasbourg where we remained in port surrounded by containers in the cargo port. Although the cruise director did a fabulous job of redirecting us to other activities, the busses were not of the quality of the boat, poor air-conditioning, no USB ports, no stopping for bathroom stops which made the travel uncomfortable and wearying. I expect (hope) Ama will offer us some compensa

The excursions offered by AmaWaterways are very inclusive: bike tours for the more active and gentle group that requires less walking. It is perfect for a family reunion where some members have mobility issue while some members are super active. The cruise manager is super efficient and helps you with every aspects of your post cruise travels and makes sure every excursion go smoothly. The wellness director is very sweet and she makes great effort to provide accommodation for people with mobility issues so that they can participate fully in her classes. The travelers on this cruise are more m

River was high so could not navigate the river. Was more like a bus tour. The crew of the Amamagna really did a spectacular job making sure all of their guests were taken care of. Just wish the river would have been a little more accommodating.

Although you couldn't control the locks and the weather, it was a wonderful experience. The pre-cruise in Lugano and Como was amazing. Special appreciation to Daniel, our cruise director at Lugano. When everything went bad with the traffic and the bus, Daniel was able to make everything work out. He went "above and beyond"!

This was a great trip. We had very high expectations due to sailing the Rhine with them 5 years ago. It was again, great food, staff and well organized. The only reason it wasn’t a full 5 is that this cruise had very little down time and we felt we were running from one thing to another. It’s just the way the ports all lined up I’m sure. But we were finding we wished we had more time in the ports to explore.

The rooms although small provided everything that we needed. The ship staff and the Cruise Manager were outstanding. Very helpful and accommodating.

Excellent. Stops and tours along the way were superb. Great crew on the AmaSienna.

Overall, my wife and I had a very pleasant time on the trip. I do not think I would rate it better than the Seine and Danube trips. I would give AMA an A for the accommodations, ship, and the excursions (A+ for the excursions). The service and food was not outstanding but satisfactory. I thought the ship was understaffed and the local meal-fare was nothing to rave about. I will say the first two nights meals were outstanding.

Nothing is perfect, but this cruise nearly was my fellow passengers. The wonderful crew of the ship and the ship itself created sweet memories. Could it be improved perhaps a little maybe I could’ve ate a little less enjoyed a little less laughed a little less, but it was too nice and to give up any of it!.

This was only our second river cruise and maybe after taking sea cruises we expected too much. Many of the excursions on went by an attraction and did not enter. We were usually given free time at the end to go back and enter if we had wished to, it just wasn't what we were expecting. Also, we would have liked the opportunity to just have dinners for two. Every table was for four persons or more.

This trip exceeded my expectations. From the support received from Ryan at Avoya to the services received on the cruise, the itinerary, accomodations, food, land transportation, everything was perfect. Therefore, I will definetly use Avoya for planning my future vacations and hope to go in another Ama cruise.

Great cruise, wonderful crew. Excellent service and food. Tours were excellent.

AMA waterways hosted a wonderful riverboat cruise experience. The ship was beautiful and had every accommodation needed. The staff was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Couldn’t have had a better time.
