Great experience! I love the smaller boat. We were able to meet so many of the people on board. So fun! All of the employees were so attentive and kind. I loved visiting the different countries. So very interesting. Most days we had several different excursions to choose from. Food was awesome every day.

Pros: Beautiful ship with great people working on it.

My wife and I just returned from an AMAWaterways cruise from Amsterdam to Luxemburg, including the pre- and post-cruise extensions in Amsterdam and Paris. This was our first river cruise, and first time with AMA, and we are looking forward to cruising with AMA, again. The cruise staff went out of its way to make sure we all had an amazing adventure, and the guides at each port of call were not only knowledgeable and fun to be with, the "QuietVox" units they used helped us all get every bit of information and detail about all the places we were visiting. I'd also like to make a shout out to the steward crew - during the last two days of the cruise I lost my ebook. The crew helped me search everywhere, including going through the chairs and sofas in the lounge. It turns out the ebook had fallen under the sheets/mattress of the bed, was found AFTER we disembarked, but then was quickly handed off to the cruise director who left the ship after we did, but caught up to us during our first excursion and brought the book with her. That was above and beyond, and a testament to how everyone knew the situation and was willing to quickly get the book back to me. THANK YOU! We had an amazing time, got to know so many of the passengers and staff, and would definitely recommend AMAwaterways to anyone who's looking for a river cruise adventure. Well done, AMA, and thank you!

The ship was staffed with fun, friendly, professional crew who provided exceptional service in all areas aboard the ship. The staff made every bit of the trip even more enjoyable. There are set times for meals in the dining room. Breakfast and lunch are full service in the dining room, or self service limited selection in the lounge with extended hours of availability. Dinners are full service in the dining room, and you may choose to eat at the Chef's Tasting Menu dinner in a separate dining room at no extra charge. The Chef's dinner selection offers beverage pairing with each course. There is no uncharge for participating in the Chef's dinner. Food varied at all meals (except breakfast remaining pretty consistent). There are always at least two selections for soups, salads, main courses and desserts to choose from. Cuisine varied, with fresh ingredients, and primarily focused on Western European, international and some Asian preparations. There are also a variety of regular events in the lounge offering light to moderate dining options in between scheduled meals. You will not ever starve on this cruise. There is a daily happy hour in the lounge. Fresh, self serve coffee and tea are always available 24-7 in the lounge. Rooms are nice, clean and kept neatly and freshly stocked on a daily basis. Laundry service is available and convenient with a quick turnaround. Excursion options were available at each stop, and depending on the length of time docked, you may be able to participate in two different excursions in the same area. On many of the active excursions, different pace options are available to accommodate varying speed of attendees. All excursions are led by knowledgeable, friendly, local guides. Don't forget to tip them as they do not work for the cruise line.

Pros: Excellent crew, great food, nice rooms, amazing scenery and excursions.

Cons: None.
