Review summary

This was by far the best cruise I have ever been on. We loved the intimate environment and exceptional service. They communicated at every turn and did there best to accommodate and anticipate every need. I'm sold on river cruising and cruising with Ama!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
River cruising is such a different experience -- the embarkation is just so easy! It's like checking into a hotel.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food is spectacular!! Everything is delicious, the wine pairings throughout the week are so lovely!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
There aren't a ton of actual "activities" onboard. There is a pool but in December we weren't going to be using it (although you could) but they do a great job of having events throughout the week to immerse you in the culture and teach you about the places we were visiting. We ar a young couple and I still enjoyed the experiences immensely!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Every night they brought local artists onboard and it was amazing! The music was lovely, very intimate. Plus, they did some great onboard activities like tree decorating that were just so special!

Service and Staff
