This was my first river cruise and it definitely won't be my last. Despite the Covid challenges AMA and the great crew of the AMASerena did a fantastic job. There were lots of added touches to make the holiday cruise extra special! The ship was decorated beautifully! They even managed to have Santa Claus join us one night! They went above and beyond at every turn! The ship was always spotless and there was always crew members cleaning and sanitizing the public areas. I had an issue with my vaccination app and the cruise director, Nicki Drinkwater got everything straightened out so I could enjoy the ports of call to the fullest! I can't say enough about the crew and how they made this holiday cruise extra special I'm really looking forward to taking another cruise with AMAWaterways. I also want to do another Holiday Markets cruise. I'm thinking about the Danube for 2022?
