THE ONBOARD EXPERIENCEFrom the housekeeping staff to the cruise manager to the captain and crew, every member of

our onboard AMAWATERWAYSteam is knowledgeable, helpful, and dedicated to surpassing your

highest expectations. The small number of passengers on our ships allows for a very high level of

attentive service.

All AMAWATERWAYSships have a Main Lounge with panoramic windows where passengers gather

for lectures, watch the passing scenery or socialize with others. A full-service bar, dance floor,

resident pianist and onboard performances by local entertainers make this lounge a popular spot

in the evenings. Most ships also feature a more intimate Aft Lounge, an ideal place to gather with

friends. Our European vessels all have a fitness room, full service beauty salon and an onboard

massage therapist, and some ships also have a sauna.

EXCEPTIONAL CUISINEAMAWATERWAYSis well-known for its delicious and inventive cuisine. We are the only river

cruise line to ever be inducted into the prestigious Chane Des Rtisseurs culinary guild and our

executive chef has three gold medals from top international competitions. Menus are carefully

designed to incorporate local specialties along with international favorites and can be altered to

accommodate nearly every dietary preference. Our newest ships in Europe offer several dining

venues, including a main dining room, a wine bar, an intimate Chefs Table restaurant, and an al

frescodining terrace where you can enjoy a light lunch as you gaze out at the ever-changing view.

With lavish breakfast and lunch buffets, continental breakfasts for early risers, delicious lunches and

multi-course dinners with complimentary free-flowing beverages (fine wine, beer, soft drinks and

juice), decadent desserts, late morning and tea time treats in the Main Lounge, and hot late-night

snacks, there is no reason to ever go hungry on an AMAWATERWAYScruise!

castle slowly emerge from the morning mist...see the

world from an entirely different perspective.


9/68


360RIVERSIDE VIEWSOn every AMAWATERWAYSriver cruise, weve gone above and beyond to ensure that the journey is

every bit as enjoyable as the destination. Our river cruise ships are carefully designed to optimize

the view, allowing you to admire the quaint villages, vibrant cities, picturesque vineyards, temples,

castles and other key sights that line our scenic river routes. Immerse yourself in your surroundings

as you sip a glass of fine local wine or bask in the sun on one of our viewing decks, watching the

beautiful scenery slowly glide past. There is no better way to see the world!

STATEROOMS & BALCONIES

AMAWATERWAYShas pioneered many onboard innovations, such as our concepts for some of

the best staterooms found on any river cruise fleet. Our spacious staterooms have the feeling

of elegantly appointed hotel rooms, with plenty of storage space, bathrooms with multi-jet

showers and quality toiletries. Each stateroom has individual climate controls, a phone, a safe,

and complimentary bottled water replenished daily. Staterooms are refreshed twice daily, with

evening turndown service that includes a recipe card from the chef, an overview of the next days

itinerary and chocolates on your pillow. Standard staterooms start at 170 square feet* and most

feature French Balconies with floor-to-ceiling glass doors. Our newest ships also offer another

AMAWATERWAYSinnovation, Twin Balcony Staterooms, which provide a French Balcony and a

separate step-out balcony. The perfect spot to have a cup of coffee, read or simply relax and

take in the passing view.

The AMAWATERWAYSin-room Infotainment System is one of the most comprehensive in the industry.

Each stateroom comes with a flat-panel TV and complimentary access to movies, TV shows, travel

videos, music channels and high-speed Internet service. Complimentary Wi-Fi access also makes it

easy to stay in touch with people back home.

SMALL GROUP SHORE EXCURSIONS

Our expertly guided shore excursions are included daily at no additional cost. We take great pride

in facilitating authentic cultural encounters, such as visits to local markets, demonstrations by local

artisans and music and dance performances. We strive to create exclusive experiences in every port

and offer a choice of excursions whenever possible. Of course, you always have the option to simply

walk into town, borrow a bicycle to explore on your own or on a guided bike tour, or simply relax

on board.

AMAWATERWAYSshore excursions also vary in terms of physical exertion. Gentle Walkers stroll at

a leisurely pace, Regular Walkers move at an average clip, Active Walkers go at a faster pace to

cover more ground, and in many ports we have a Late Starters group for those who like to sleep

in. No matter which pace you select, your tour will be led by a licensed English-speaking guide with

extensive local knowledge. Recruited for their enthusiasm, resourcefulness and insider expertise,

our top-notch guides bring each destinations history, people and culture vibrantly alive. And you

will never miss a word your guide says, thanks to our complimentary lightweight audio headsets.

CULINARY DELIGHTS BITES & SIGHTS

Passionate about food? Treat yourself to the Culinary Delights Bites & Sights tours offered on

our European itineraries. Led by local food experts, these optional excursions let you experience

the history, culture and distinct flavors of your destination in a truly unique and memorable way.

Wander through colorful produce and meat markets. Sample regional delicacies such as sachertorte

in Vienna, tapas in Madrid, or sausages at Germanys oldest restaurant. Roll up your sleeves for a

memorable hands-on experience, making goulash in Hungary, Lyonnaise cuisine in Provence, or

knotted pretzels in Germany. As with all our small group excursions, the intimate size of these

tours make the experience even better. Bon appetit!

Explore

Enhance your river cruise experience by

paths on your own two-wheeled adventure.


13/68


BICYCLES & GUIDED BIKE TOURS

AMAWATERWAYSwas the first river cruise line to provide guests with a complimentary fleet of

bicycles on European voyages. Our comfortable and well-maintained bikes allow you to take

full advantage of the many miles of scenic paths and urban bike lanes found throughout Europe.

You can often cycle from one port to the next, pedaling alongside the river as your new onboard

friends wave to you from the top deck of the ship. We also offer guided bicycle tours with expert

local guides who will regale you with stories as you spin along.

One of our guests favorite places to cycle is along the Danube River, a region ripe with castle ruins,

fragrant fruit orchards and sprawling, centuries-old vineyards. Cross the river on a small ferry, or

stop for a pint of beer at a cozy riverside caf. Pedaling on paved pathways through picturesque

villages and medieval towns, coasting past lush farmland, the sun on your face and the wind in

your hairthere is truly no better way to experience Europes charm and beauty.

With two wheels spinning beneath you, you can do as the locals do in Amsterdam, quite possibly

the worlds most bicycle-friendly city, explore the Dutch countryside, surrounded by brilliant

carpets of brightly colored tulips. Turn down that intriguing lane in Provence, letting your curiosity

guide the way. Explore quaint German hamlets, navigating delightful mazes of cobblestone streets.

Our fleet of bicycles allows you to fully immerse yourself in your destination, yet another distinctive

feature of an AMAWATERWAYSriver cruise.
