Even if the weather was not ideal we had a blast. All the crew members were fantastic. The meals are just delicious and so well presented. Our cruise director, Betti, was amazing. During our cruise, one of the lock broke down and she was able to reorganized all the excursions on a very short notice, all this happening on a Saturday. High five to Betti. All the waiting staff in the restaurant or ...

Although no stranger to cruising this was our first river cruise in Europe. We took up Ama's offer for a free cruise for Front Line Workers. We enjoyed every minute of this cruise and its ship, the Ama Certo. Upon arrival we were made to feel welcome. Our stateroom was excellent and we enjoyed sailing with the windows open at night. We were fortunate that the weather was comfortable and the ...

We are long time cruisers and decided to try river cruising. Unfortunately we chose AMA for this canal sailing to Belgium and Netherlands. Checkin was easy. My first floor room was as expected, small but adequate. My only room complaint is there seems to be some mold in the room as I often had allergy symptoms only while in the room, my only allergy is to mold. The personnel was ...

We were directed to AmaWaterways by our travel agent, and was she ever right. The cruise from beginning to end was nearly perfection. The stateroom was lovely, with very nice linens and an outdoor private deck with chairs and a small table. The staff, from the waiters to the housekeeping staff to the sailors were friendly and helpful. The ship was immaculate in every respect, and hand washing was ...

We did a Rhine River Cruise on the AMACerto in May of 2016 and loved it. We booked this longer cruise soon after. The 2016 cruise was all on the Rhine and only 7 days. This one was on the Rhine, Maine and Danube, 14 days. We requested that the same Cruise Manager be assigned to our cruise and she was! AMA crews are the best. Everyone without exception is dedicated to making sure you have the ...

We have been on AMA three times. Each time has been a positive and worthwhile experience. We stayed on the third level with an outdoor seating. The maître d absolutely made my meals wonderful. Each morning he sat with me to discuss vegetarians for the day, That defines personalized service. Daniel, the chef, took my requests and implemented them into each meal. Wow! They also have a tapas ...

This was our second river cruise with AmaWaterways and, as was the case with our first cruise, we were delighted with the experience. Every logistical detail was managed professionally, including the airport transfers to and from the ship, and the many entertaining and educational excursions. Our room aboard the ship was light and bright, clean and attractively decorated. Buffet-style breakfasts ...

This review is overdue, but family issues made writing and posting it earlier all but impossible. We chose this cruise because my mother wanted to see the tulips again. The ship departed and returned to Amsterdam which was very convenient from a flights standpoint. From the first point of embarkation the service was stellar. Bags delivered promptly to the room. Smiles and help from all ...

They met us at the airport, led us to the bus taking us to the port. We had not one minute to worry about anything. The ship was clean, the food was good, and the staff were wonderful. From the Captain, Hotel Director, Cruise Director to the kitchen staff--they were wonderful. They met every request with a smile. Our cabin was always and promptly cleaned. We enjoyed all the shore ...

Our Rivercruise started in Amasterdam on the 22nd of Dec 2016. We wanted to experience Christmas Markets in Europe without the hassle of packing and unpacking if we were flying or driving from one town to another.. OUR CABIN on Violin Deck 301 is AWESOME !!! The first day of tour was a bit inconvenient as the Tour Director failed to arrange appropriate transport and tour for the "Disabled" ...
