Wonderful, relaxing cruise
"You get most of this on an ocean vessel, but not to the same level of attention, from personal attention for whatever you can dream of wanting to the plating of delectable cuisine.Knowing that we would not be getting the ocean vessel experience we were accustomed to, we were looking forward to seeing what small vessel river cruising was like, and it turned out to be wonderful...."Read More

Worst Food I've experienced on any River or Ocean Cruise

We booked the Paris & Normandy Cruise on 4th November 2023 after attending a very professional presentation at our local travel agency. I was impressed by the Scottish Business Development Manager's assurances that AmaWaterways always delivers an excellent guest experience. Although disappointed that there were several fairly significant changes to the original itinerary published in the ...

Our original intent was to see the Normandie Beaches and MT Saint Michel, but we decided to roll it all into one with a river cruise from Paris and the add on post extension. We are glad we did. To see Paris correctly, one would need a week, but we still got to see the major sights and the Eiffel Tower lit up at night. The cruise also took us to incredible sights of castles, chateaus, gardens, ...

This cruise was rather expensive. My travel agent really pushed this cruise line, and one thing she assured me was the food would be fabulous. It turned out a lot of the food was frozen and pre-made. The chef's dinner was amazing, but you only get it for one night. One other dinner was pretty good, but not so memorable I could tell you what it was. The menu is very limited, and honestly, I would ...

I was traveling solo, and familiar with Viking Cruises. In contrast with Viking, Ama offers 50% single supplement rooms, one or two per ship. This made the cruise substantially more affordable than the same cruise on Viking or Tauck would've been for me (at 100% single supplement charge). There were a few advantages on this cruise over my previous Viking experience. Fitness was an important ...

This cruise was our second with AMA. The embarkation went smoothly, and the initial greetings were congenial and helpful. The tours, the staff, the service and attention to detail were superb. Every guest on board commented on the attentive, professional, friendly, and efficient staff. We especially enjoy the fact that AMA ensures guests enjoy small groups and interesting, professional guides ...

We wanted to do a river cruise to Normandy and had booked one in 2020 which, of course, was cancelled. We chose AMADante because the line purports to have a "gentle walkers" option and the friends who we planned to travel with needed it. They ended up not joining us. This was our first river cruise. The ship was about 1/2 full, around 75 passengers. Most of the passengers were American with ...

My mother, aunt, cousin, and I spent a week aboard the AMADante as we cruised along the Seine. The excursions were wonderful but I am writing this review about the crew and staff. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. If they even thought you were in need of something, they were right there with it! Alex Stan was our Cruise Manager and he was fun, energetic (Wakie, wakie!), and great at ...

We chose this cruise specifically for the itinerary which included stops in Giverney to visit Monet's house and gardens and more importantly Le Havre providing an all day excursion to the Normandy D-Day beaches. As a first time river cruiser I have nothing to compare our experience to but I am only left with wonderful memories of our cruise. Embarkation was a breeze-check your name off the list, ...

Experienced ocean cruisers and European travelers, we chose this opportunity to get a closer look at Normandy. We were delighted again and again! Petrus, our waiter was warm, welcoming and very helpful as he guided us through a delicious and delightful menu with great variety. Our Maitre’D, Christian and Assistant waiter , Anda, made every meal a pleasure. We felt like family! The tours were ...

Our first river cruise, and it was a wonderful change from ocean cruising. Knowing that we would not be getting the ocean vessel experience we were accustomed to, we were looking forward to seeing what small vessel river cruising was like, and it turned out to be wonderful. Attention to detail, personal attention, and superb food made this a rich experience. You get most of this on an ocean ...
