Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox company AmaWaterways is a Calabasas, California based river cruise company that offers cruises in Europe, Southern Africa, Southeast Asia, South America, and Egypt.[1][2] Its price range is considered "luxury" among river cruises.[2] It had a fleet of 26 ships as of 2022.[1]
History
AmaWaterways was co-founded in 2002 by Rudi Schreiner, Jimmy Murphy, and Kristin Karst.[1][2] Schreiner had been one of the pioneers of the river cruise industry after the Rhine–Main–Danube Canal opened in 1992.[3] Schreiner was still the president and co-owner of the company as of 2018.[4]
Present day
AmaWaterways cruise ships ply a number of rivers in Europe, including the Danube, Rhine, Seine, Douro,[2] Moselle, Main,[5] Garonne,[6] and Rhône.[7] Outside Europe, their ships cruise the Mekong and Chobe rivers.[2]
At each port of call, there are guided excursions that are graded according to the difficulty level of the walking.[2] The company also caters to bicyclists, golfers,[4] and other active passengers. Starting in 2016, it offered "cruise and bike trips on the Rhine, Seine and Douro".[2]
Cruises are full-board and include wine and beer with meals as well as a cocktail hour.[8] AmaWaterways is reportedly the only river cruise line to belong to the gourmet chain La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs.[2]
Unusually for river cruises, there are hair salons on AmaWaterways ships,[2] as well as spas, gyms, and libraries.[8]
Special interest cruises
To attract families with younger children, AmaWaterways partnered with Adventures by Disney to create Disney-themed cruises that feature the Christmas markets in cities on the Danube and Rhine rivers, among others.[9][2][10]
The company has also offered promotions for solo travellers. On four ships (the AmaDolce, AmaLyra, AmaCello, and AmaDante), single cabins are available without a supplemental fee.[11]
Fleet
As of 2022, AmaWaterways had a fleet of 26 ships.[1] One of these, the AmaMagna, is the largest cruise ship on the Danube.[2] Roughly twice as wide as other cruise ships on the Danube,[12] the AmaMagna is meant to offer passengers more roomy accommodations and more dining options than would be possible on a narrower river cruise ship.[4]
