“Fabulous!”
5 Stars
Ship: AmaKristina
Cruise Date: 12/11/2023
Destination: Europe
We were scheduled to sail up the Rhône from Arles to Lyon, but the river was too high for the ship to sail. The staff on the ship did an outstanding job of rescheduling our time with bus tours, wine tastings, excursions, etc. The beautiful AmaKristina was our home base while we explored all over the south of France. The tours were informative and educational, and the meals on the ship were outstanding. From the moment we stepped off the plane, we were well cared for during the entire journey. I will definitely book with AmaWaterways again, and hopefully be able to actually sail on the ri

Working with Richelle was easy and made getting half way around the world go smoothly. The trip to eastern Europe was amazing. I highly recommend it. You are treated like royalty on the ship. The food and drink were excellent. Seeing a different part of the world, the history, people, etc. All just wonderful. I cannot recommend enough. We do not normally do trips like this and now I cannot wait to do another.

“Not what I expected”

Ship: AmaLucia
Cruise Date: 11/22/2023
Destination: Europe
I signed on for the Rhine river cruise that was to have been on the Ama Lucia. A few days before, I got an email to say I would be on a different ship, the Ama Siena for at least part of the trip due to changes in water levels on the River. I understand nature cannot be controlled, but the "ship swap" half way through the journey really did not help the ambience of the experience. We were dropped off for the day in Heidelberg on a day when the town was almost shit down for a national holiday and it was pouring rain, not able to return to a bus or a ship.

4 Stars
Ship: AmaSiena
Cruise Date: 11/11/2023
Destination: Europe
We had two ships due to low water, so for the AmaSiena: Housekeeping was phenomenal - so kind and pleasant! I adored Sonja and she even taught me to say good morning in Serbian! Food was mediocre at best - three times I got undercooked fish so I stopped ordering fish. My tablemates likewise had doneness issues with their food. Food was salty and not great, even the Chaine des Rotisseurs dinner was a disappointment. If the food had been as good as on the AmaLucia (see below, second half of the voyage) I would have given the cruise 5 stars. The Chef's Table dinner was the standout - really fanta

“Trip to Jordan and Egypt”
5 Stars
Ship: AmaDahlia
Cruise Date: 11/13/2023
Destination: Asia
We were a little worried about going to the Middle East at this time, because of the war going on in Israel. We shouldn't have been concerned at all. During our entire trip, my husband and I felt completely safe and taken care of. Our guides, Loui in Jordan and Waala in Egypt, provided so much information that we were amazed at their knowledge. Our group of nineteen became family by the time we arrived in Egypt and we enjoyed this wonderful trip together. The AmaDahlia was very beautiful and the crew couldn't have been any more caring. If we wanted something to eat, we just had to ask for

5 Stars
Ship: AmaSiena
Cruise Date: 11/08/2023

The trip exceeded our expectations! The beauty and magic of the River, castles and European towns created memories we won't forget. The hospitality of the staff on board the boat was wonderful. Everything was kept exceptionally clean. We had a great time meeting other guests. There were numerous great excursions at each stop that all sounded so fun we had a hard time each day deciding. Can't wait for our next chance to cruise!

My Avoya travel agent, Sarah Weiner, is a very pleasant, meticulous and efficient agent. She made great reservations for the flight and the cruise. She kept me up to date on everything, sent me all my documents, was very helpful and wished me a wonderful trip. I would use her again. The cruise was well organized from the moment that AMAWaterways met me upon arrival to the moment that AMAWaterways dropped me off at the airport for the trip back home, the ship was spotless, the food was excellent, the staff was diligent and helpful, and I saw a part of the world that is rich in history, cul

Destination: Europe
We enjoyed our first river cruise with AmaWaterways. They do an outstanding job. We have been on large cruise ships before and it was nice to have close contact with the cruise Director, the cruise Captain and the cruise Manager. We did miss the room service that we have come to enjoy on a larger cruise ship. Having breakfast via room service to enjoy on the balcony would’ve made for a more restful cruise experience for us. We have enjoyed this on the larger ships. Also, the cruise was a wine cruise, and we thought we could ignore that part of it. But not being wine drinkers, it was pretty int

We were best to every city. As a result, you're stranded in that city until you are bust back to the ship. We found ourselves with nothing to do on several occasions, unfortunately it rained most days, so we struggled with finding ways to get out of the rain.

“Too much time on boat and bus”

The River Cruise part of my trip was a disappointment. This was my 5th River Cruise. The truly beautiful and charming towns we visited made v the trip worthwhile - they were charming, historically interesting and local guides excellent. But, the boat part of the trip not equal to the land part. The food was mediocre. The top deck was closed for a majority of the trip due to low bridges and many lockes. The docking place were almost never near the destination sight seeing places, so bus rides necessary to reach them.. I loved my room on board and the boat stsff was 100% wonderful - kitchen,

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent trip on AMA to Madrid, the Duoro RIver, and Lisbon. Henrique Bastos was an excellent Cruise Manager who seemed to be everywhere and always available to provide assistance. Highlight of the trip was the 7 days on the AMAVida and the cruise on the beautiful Duoro River. Meals were excellent as well as the service. Only disappointment was the hotel in Madrid. The rooms were small and the hotel looked like it could use a refresh as there were chips in the paint in the hallways. However it was well positioned for restaurants and shopping.
