We chose this cruise because my sister had previously cruised with AMA waterways. Everything was perfect from our early arrival, hoping to drop our luggage off and go into the town to grab some lunch, instead the wonderful staff made us feel so welcome, gave us drinks and snacks and then plates of pasta. The staff was amazing, the rooms were very nice, the food and drink was delicious. The ...

Our first river cruise and it did not disappoint. At first we were notified of a disruption to our cruise as the ship could not have us board as scheduled due a lock undergoing repairs short of Nuremberg. Although initially disappointed it turned out to be a bonus as we were picked up by bus to be transported to a dock in Kelheim, a beautiful part of the world! As we had explored Nuremberg in ...

We just got off an amazing cruise on the Danube departing from Budapest on August 30 to Vilshofen, Germany, September 6. There were 32 passengers with 34 staff. The cruise disembarking September 6 only had 37 passengers. And, the two cruises prior to ours had 30-something and 74 passengers respectively. Here are some observations:
1. Hungry required a PCR test to enter by air. No one asked to ...
I loved this cruise--Nuremberg to Budapest on the Danube. Natalijia the cruise director and the crew were great. Solo female Traveller here (millennial too) so wasn't sure what it would be like. It's my first river cruise and was thoroughly impressed. Excellent excursions and tour guides, time to myself, great food and wine, and the onboard shop was lovely too! Highly recommend. Will do another ...

I have a good 15 or so ocean cruises under my belt, but this was my first river cruise, and my first time cruising solo. The itinerary was Budapest to Nuremburg, with stops in Vienna, Melk, Passau and Regensburg. I did not take the optional 2-night pre-stay in Budapest and 3-night post-stay in Prague, but did arrive one day prior to Budapest and used Ama's air/transfer/hotel package. My driver ...

We had the best time on our Danube cruise with AMA. The AMALea is a beautiful ship, but more importantly, the staff was just awesome. The service was so special, and everyone seemed to know what you wanted or remembered what you had before you even asked. We had just about perfect weather and no water issues. Our cruise director, Stephanie, was so much fun, always available and seemed to be ...

In our opinion, the Nov 11, 2018, Danube cruise was one of the best cruises we've ever been on--which had a lot to do with the staff and the cruise manager.
The beauty of Vilshofen all the way to Budapest was breathtaking.
Most of the people who took the cruise were over 50, but they were very active and all of the active tours were completely full. The relaxing part was saved for the ...
