SHIP OVERVIEW

As imagined by AmaWaterways' Co-Founder, Co-Owner and President Rudi Schreiner, the Godfather of River Cruising, the AmaMagna is twice the width of traditional European river ships and offers more personal space, more unique dining venues and more leisure opportunities, redefining the river cruise experience. Most accommodations are spacious suites measuring 355 to 710 sq. ft. with full balconies. In addition to the Main Restaurant and The Chef's Table, AmaMagna introduces two enticing new dining venues: Jimmy's, a family-style restaurant named for AmaWaterways' late Co-Owner Jimmy Murphy, and the Al Fresco Restaurant, with retractable windows and outdoor seating. Both a sundeck pool and whirlpool invite guests to refresh and enjoy the views. AmaMagna's Zen Wellness Studio is an expansive space with a fitness center, two massage rooms and a refreshing juice bar.

PROS

Beautiful ship staffed by true professionals. You can tell that they really care about making your experience special and memorable.

CONS

Did not get to make it all the way to Vilshofen due to water levels

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Everyone was extremely attentive in their attempts to make our experience special. Jan had a bit of a medical emergency and the staff could not have been more professional about getting her taken care of. We will always appreciate the extra effort they need to help us out.

Beautiful Boat and Very good service

JULY

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Cabins are outstanding; multiple dining options; variety of tours

CONS

Dining service crew a bit inexperienced

RECOMMENDED

Yes

We loved the AmaMagna, a big boat that never feels crowded. In addition to the main dining room, there are three specialty restaurants (and the Chef'sTable is really outstanding). We were on the Southeastern cruise of the Danube from Budapest to Romania, with tour stops in Croatia, Serbia, and Bulgaria. There were a wide variety of tours and tour guides were all knowledgeable and excellent. We also had an exceptional cruise director, which always seems to be the case with AMAWaterways (this was our fourth cruise with AMA). Only minor nit, and I think this is because of the pandemic, was some of the dining room staff were not very experienced so service on occasion was a bit spotty. However, we highly recommend AMA and are already planning another cruise with them.

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

The customer service/attention was superb. The variety of tours based on physical ability/skill was a great touch.

CONS

Perhaps the in-room entertainment offerings.

RECOMMENDED

Yes

The Amamagna cruise ranks top of the list of my water travels of any kind. The staff was wonderfully attentive to all our needs. The food was fabulous with choices for vegan or gluten free customers. The choice of wines at dinner was amazing and reflected regional wines that gave the opportunity to experience grapes that were new to us. What set this cruise apart for me was that in every port there were tour choices that responded to the physical abilities/skills of the passengers. You could bike, hike, or walk. Even the walking was broken into regular paced and gentle paced groups. There was was special attention to on board activities that addressed healthy living such as yoga for beginners or advanced, Pilates, digestive walking and many other things to numerous to mention.
