SHIP OVERVIEW

Gliding along the phenomenally beautiful Main, Rhine and Moselle rivers, the AmaDante is a study in understated elegance, decorated with subdued colors and patterns that allow the breathtaking scenery outside to take precedence. Most accommodations include a French balcony, so you will never miss a vineyard, steeple or castle, even when relaxing in your elegantly appointed stateroom. Every moment at leisure is a treat on AmaDante, whether you are rejuvenating in the sauna or whirlpool, indulging in a massage or haircut, meeting new friends in the inviting Main Lounge, working out in the fitness room, taking a lap on the sun-deck walking track or crafting your daily java at the specialty coffee station. As the premier cruise line to offer a fleet of complimentary bikes, it is a pleasure to offer the same on AmaDante, so you will enjoy exhilarating guided biking tours from ship to shore throughout Europe.

PROS

Staff was amazing! Food was fantastic! Excursions were meaningful! The logistics and ship were wonderful!!

CONS

None!

RECOMMENDED

Yes

This was the first river cruise for our group of 8 friends (four couples). The whole experience far exceeded our expectations. The planning, logistics, cabins/staterooms, food, drinks, staff, countryside, excursions, activities, and every single detail were all amazing! We would highly recommend this and we are grateful we were able to experience it!

PROS

the staff was so helpful and friendly, I loved that they had a baker on the ship. The bread and pastries were sooo good

CONS

we were at the back of the ship and the engine noise was a little bothersome. There were several ports that we did not get to enjoy because all the shops were closed for the holiday

RECOMMENDED

Yes

I can't imagine that the food could be any better on a different cruise line. It was so relaxing we enjoyed getting to know the staff that took such good care of us.

PROS

Great Staff and Cruise Director

CONS

Top Deck mostly closed for low bridges

RECOMMENDED

Yes

The AmaDante team were excellent. Friendly, helpful, and they clearly noticed and took care of the details to keep things running smoothly and to take care of the guests. This was our first cruise of any kind, so we weren't sure what to expect. They did a great job of keeping us informed, keeping us comfortable and well fed, and they made the travel experience very easy. As a traveler that likes to DIY it, I did think the ratio of shore time to ship time was lower than I would like. We did the pre-cruise and post-cruise extensions, which made this better. But all things considered, I would recommend AmaWaterways anytime.

PROS

Abel Ramos was amazing as the activities director. The captain was very involved with his crew as was Sonia the hotel manager.

CONS

RECOMMENDED

Yes

I think the massage that I had was amazing, done by Vladimir, and that opportunity should have been promoted more than by just a flyer in the room. I was motivated by the reports that came back and would have probably would have done it again. I liked that there were different levels of walking groups so everyone seemed to be in their own comfort zone.

Ihotels were superior and great locations.

<div>It was a fantastic trip. Our travel agent&nbsp;was so right about this trip. Fun and truly enjoyable. Raul, with AMA was very personable and professional. He really cared about us. The on board bakery was amazing. Wait staff was excellant. So many people working to ensure we had the best experience possible. The ports were interesting but by the second church and castle, I was done. I would have preferred a little variety of venues. Perhaps a beer brewery, chocolate factory and or bakery. Some of the local fair. Overall it was a wonderful trip. Thank you to all of the crew and staff.</div>
