AmaWaterways - AmaMora Reviews

We had an amazing time on our Danube River Cruise. From German to Budapest, we had great weather and the boat was a perfect way to enjoy the sights along the river. Staff was friendly and helpful and the boat never felt too crowded. Loved being able to enjoy time on the sundeck and lounge and took advantage of all the excursions at every stop. Food was delicious and plentiful. We hope to do another River Cruise in the future!

Pretty awesome and fast paced. Great land tours.

Wonderful!!

It was a wonderful trip. The ship was beautifully decorated, staff was attentive and friendly. The individual tours guides were knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend the trip to our friends.

This was my first trip on Amawaterways. It did not disappoint. The ship was great. Only 1/2 full so was easily upgraded to a suite. The service was amazing. Everyone went out of their way to be helpful, friendly and make this a great trip. The food was mostly very good. Being a picky eater that doesn't care for specialty food and having to have a gluten free diet, there were sometimes I had to default to the daily hamburger. However, the staff was always there to recognize me and make sure I had a very good gluten free meal. Except for one, the tours were wonderful and the fact that we didn't have to pay extra for tours was a plus. The one tour that didn't meet expectations was in Basel and because it was a Sunday, there was nothing open and the promised free time for shopping could not happen. It was just not a very interesting walking tour and had I known what it was, I would have stayed on the ship. Everything was very well organized and I would use Amawaterways again in a heartbeat!

Just awesome!!!

great experience on the AmaMora going from Basel to Amsterdam

7 days went by way to quickly. The crew was fantastic. I don't think we could have asked for a better time. Will look at Amawaterways again for our next trip to Europe. Thanks for a fun 7 days!

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 phone number answered in French and then the call failed each time. The cruise manager thought this might be the fault of where Basel is located in relation to relay stations. Other than these learning experiences, for a first time cruise, we had a good time, saw beautiful things and met new friends.

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 compensation for the difficulties both natural and practical we experienced.

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"!

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.

The Amamora was an awesome ship. The tours were well coordinated and the staff were excellent. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the cruise.

The trip was so very well organized! One of the best experiences we’ve had.

Our room was totally unacceptable because of noise while we were sailing at night. The creaking and vibration noise made it impossible to sleep. Our neighbors across the hall in room 223 had the same issue and also complained.

We greatly enjoyed our cruise including the time in Lake Como then on the Rhine River through Switzerland, Germany, France and The Netherlands. Perfect way to see all the castles and visit some neat towns along the river. Great trip!

Great trip, wonderful food, interesting shore excursions, and fantastic service!

We had such a great time! Couldn’t say enough good things about Ama!
