Onboard , the genuinely warm and welcoming crew goes above and beyond to ensure your journey is as memorable as possible . This means getting to know you so they can anticipate your individual preferences and offer you those extra special touches to make you feel at home . From the Cruise Manager who drove a beloved teddy bear to the airport to meet his grateful young owner to the hotel receptionist who biked into town to retrieve a cherished purchase left behind , the crew is more than just highly trained – they ˝sparkle . ˝
AmaWaterways provides a menu of complimentary shore excursions in every port ( averaging 2-3 choices per day ) that are led by local expert guides .

Guided hikes and bike rides are included , along with tours for gentle , regular and active walkers and even an option for later risers .
As a member of the prestigious international culinary society La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs , AmaWaterways offers guests an unforgettable gastronomic experience enhanced by complimentary wine chosen by acclaimed sommeliers .
