VISIT EUROPE THIS SUMMER

Many people opt to visit Europe in the summer for a slew of good reasons: Depending on the locale, it’s often the best weather all year — long daylight hours translate to more time for exploration and discovery (plus, a wide array of festivals and events are held in the summer). One of the best ways to sample vast swaths of the continent is aboard an idyllic river cruise … and AmaWaterways is a prime choice for delightfully decadent river cruising.
This Summer, Discover Europe from the River
In France, the Seine drifts past grand boulevards and Monet’s gardens in Giverny, inviting you to savor the joie de vivre on board with panoramic views, regionally inspired cuisine and gracious service. Along the Danube, history and culture unfold from Vienna’s remarkable architecture to the vineyards of Austria’s Wachau Valley, with excursions tailored to every style of travel. And on the Rhine, Main and Moselle, vineyard-covered hills, medieval castles and storybook towns reveal themselves at a slower, more meaningful pace. With AmaWaterways, each day blends immersive exploration ashore with serene moments on the river — creating a summer journey that’s as enriching as it is unforgettable.
More Reasons to Choose AmaWaterways:
- Up to eight onshore experiences to choose from a day, at no additional cost
