AmaWaterways Reviews

Very good. Outstanding tour staff

Beautiful ship and wonderful itinerary. The crew was so amazing. Our cruise manager Jessie knew everyone’s names and special needs. She really went above and beyond. We loved how intimate everything was, from the excursions to the overall feel of the ship. The ship was super clean and food was good. We are already thinking of taking another trip with Ama!

A wonderful trip to see the history and beauty of Central and eastern Europe. Friendly staff on board and super knowledgeable guides. Great choices of activities. Lucked out on the weather but ended up stopping a bit short of the planned end due to water levels. Cruise staff were great on adjusting for that while maintaing the excursions and such Highly recommend

Planned this trip the last minute and it did not disappoint. We have done river cruises before with another company and was not familiar with AMA. We were very pleased with the quality of service from start to finish.

We totally enjoyed our Rhine River cruise. Ama Waterways provides an amazing cruise with well thought out excursions with perfect choreography. There is a diverse selection of food and is so well prepared and beautifully presented. The boat is luxurious and fit our needs perfectly. I highly recommend Ama Waterways for their river cruises.

Staff were amazing but food was better than average but not amazing for the price - we paid about a third more than Viking and was told that the food was amazing. I had the vegan option and it was pretty good - the staff really tried for me - but my wife said the food was good but not great Second for the money we thought there would be more vine options - white wine was limited and earlier happy hour would have been better.

I was disappointed by the food, it was not up to the standard of my previous AmaWaterways cruise. Otherwise it was perfect!

Trip of a lifetime. Best travel company. Fabulous accommodations and great food.

AMA Waterways made this trip so easy. From arrival in Paris, through the Champagne country on the pre cruise add on, on board the ship and in Lucerne and Zurich on the post cruise package, every detail was looked after. Great variety of foods, shore excursions and a wonderful time to see the grape harvest throughout the region. Plus I made some wonderful new friends onboard!

The food, service, housekeeping was all excellent. The highlight of the trip was Normandy. Also loved the Monet home and gardens tour. But what I think I will always remember is our last night on ship and seeing the sparkling, lit up Eiffel Tower that our captain so graciously provided. The only negative was the transportation to the airport on Disembarkation; It was 30 minutes late and very chaotic, apparently due to the contracted taxi service.

Great ship, tho rooms were very small, it was very clean. The staff was excellent. Everyone was very personable, attentative and caring. There was one place in France where the tour guides were not of the caliber of the staff. They went on and left several of us slower folks. It was a tour specially for slower folks. Only 2 of them, tho... overal lovely.

Simply enjoyed it.

Great trip! Loved the 'smallness' of the AMA boat; was able to meet people and socialize. The staff on AMA are top notch!

Miriam was outstanding as the Cruise Manager. Miriam was attentive to the needs of, what appeared to be, a relatively demanding group of passengers. The AMACerto Crew Members were all a credit to the AMAWaterways organization. The Crew is the reason we will travel ,again, with AMAWaterways. Objective criticism; Shore excursions were hurried. Several passengers with whom we traveled would have preferred to stay for awhile in certain towns including Veer, Ghent, Dordrecht - especially Ghent. Evening entertainment on the ship was disappointing only in that it lacked passenger involvement. On our last AMA cruise (Portugal) there was passenger dancing, but not on this trip. Although many of us are "terrible" dancers, it was not only fun, but brought passengers together unlike the entertainment on this trip. Importantly, the evening entertainers were all very good, but a night, or two of dancing would have enhanced the cruise experience. Thank you for this inquiry.

The perfect African experience!

It may not have been blue, but it was beautiful. Wonderful time, great ship, outstanding cruise manager, nice shipmates and satisfying cuisine.

Everything about my experience with Amawaterways is outstanding. The entire ship is in pristine condition. The food is just five star class. The staff is just so friendly and helpful. The staff knew our names by the second day we were on the ship. I never expected the experience to be so wonderful.

All aspects of the cruise exceeded my expectations! I strongly recommend this cruise to anyone who wants to obtain a wonderful French experience.

Wonderful. The ship was immaculate, the crew spectacular, and every meal was outstanding. I was very impressed with the attention to detail, and the attention the crew gave to details. By the end of the week I felt as if I had been friends with them for years. Thanks for the wonderful and relaxing cruise.
