the people you’ll meet. No matter where you sail, you’ll always be warmly welcomed on board by a genuine crew who go above and beyond to ensure your journey is as memorable as possible. From your captain to your cruise manager to your bartender, the team is more than just highly trained – they “sparkle.” In addition, AmaWaterways’ cruise managers are with you every step of the way, both during your river cruise and pre/post-cruise land extensions, ensuring you are
taken care of from the moment you arrive to the moment you depart.
A FOCUS ON INNOVATION
AmaWaterways is at the pulse of travel trends and makes it a priority to innovate with guests’ needs in
mind. Whether it’s through the line’s fleetwide wellness activities or by appointing its ships with view-enhancing twin-balcony staterooms, guests are always top of mind. In fact, it was the line’s guests’ desire for more personal space and more choices on the river that led Co-Founder
and President, Rudi Schreiner, to design AmaWaterways’ most innovative river cruise ship to date, AmaMagna, which launched in 2019 and is redefining the river cruise experience on the Danube River.
REDEFINING THE RIVER CRUISE EXPERIENCE
The award-winning AmaMagna is twice the width of other river cruise ships and offers ocean-size diversions that make it the quintessential experience for first-time river cruisers. Though wider, the ship accommodates just 196 guests, ensuring it remains an uncrowded
oasis of relaxation. Also, AmaMagna sails a unique itinerary personally curated by Schreiner, Magna on
the Danube, which includes an excursion to Vienna’s Schönbrunn Palace and an exclusive evening wine tasting experience in the Austrian village of Spitz.
With plenty of daytime scenic sailing, you’ll be able
to enjoy the extraordinary AmaMagna to its fullest – from alfresco dining to spinning with a view.
ENRICHING EXPERIENCES
AmaWaterways offers a menu of enriching included excursions with a variety of choices each day that accommodate every kind of traveler. From guided
hikes and bike tours to hands-on Special Interest Tours such as pretzel making in Wertheim, Germany, and truffle hunting in Avignon, France. All excursions are offered in small groups, ensuring you are never crowded and always have a front-row view. Best of all, AmaWaterways’ excursions are operated no matter how small the group size, even if there are just two guests.
