The Art of River Travel
SLOW DOWN. UNPACK ONCE. LET THE WORLD DRIFT CLOSER.
AmaDahlia Sun Deck
There’s a quiet kind of magic that happens when you travel by river. No terminal chaos. No unpack–repack–repeat. Just the gentle motion of water, a glass of wine at dusk, and a horizon that shifts with every sunrise.
For those who crave immersion without complexity, refinement without rigidity, AmaWaterways offers something rare: a seamless way to explore the world through it—not just around it.
This Is River Cruising, Reimagined
Forget the floating cities and buffet lines. AmaWaterways feels more like a boutique hotel that just happens to move. Their ships are sleek, uncrowded, and purposefully designed for travellers who value depth over dazzle.
With fewer than 160 guests onboard, the experience is quietly luxurious—personal, thoughtful, and remarkably smooth from start to finish.
What Makes AmaWaterways Different
AmaDahlia Stateroom
Cultural immersion, curated for you
Up to eight included excursions each day—guided hikes, bike rides, market strolls, wine tastings. Choose your rhythm. Every itinerary is designed for curiosity, not conformity.
Dining that tells a story
Locally sourced ingredients. Wines that speak of place. Menus shaped by regional traditions and refined technique—always included, never ordinary.
A floating sanctuary
Spacious staterooms with twin balconies. A Zen Wellness Studio. Sunlit decks, a pool, a spa. You’re not just travelling—you’re arriving.
Unparalleled care
Ama’s crew don’t just serve. They remember your name. Your preferences. Your story. Their warmth is effortless, their attention instinctive.
When the Journey Is the Destination
This isn’t just a way to see the world.
It’s a way to move through it—with intention, with ease, with everything taken care of.
Unpack once. Let the rhythm of the river carry you. Glide through vineyard-laced hillsides, ancient capitals, and quiet corners most travellers miss.
For those who crave stillness, story, and surprise—this is the kind of journey that lingers long after you’ve returned home.
