AmaWaterways

AmaWaterways offers luxury river cruises across Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Colombia, and has long been a favourite among our clients seeking an alternative to traditional ocean cruising.
AmaWaterways first built its reputation on Europe’s great rivers, with itineraries such as the Romantic Danube and Enticing Douro, taking guests through iconic cities including Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest in a single holiday. With fewer than 196 like-minded guests on board, an AMA cruise takes you to the heart of these historic destinations, often docking just a short walk from the main attractions and places of interest.
In recent years, the award-winning operator has expanded its destination portfolio beyond Europe with sailings on the Mekong River in Southeast Asia, the Chobe River in Africa aboard the beautiful Zambezi Queen, and most recently, Colombia’s Magdalena River. Here, the purpose-built 64-guest AmaMagdalena and AmaMelodia offer one of river cruising’s most distinctive experiences, opening up an exciting new destination for travellers seeking something truly different.
The Cruise Line is a specialist AmaWaterways agency in the UK, and members of our team have first-hand experience sailing aboard the ships. We also offer a range of exclusive AmaWaterways cruise deals, with selected sailings benefiting from Best Fare Guarantees and complimentary flights from UK airports.
