AmaCerto River Cruises Reviews

It was freezing cold and yet still a fantastic vacation!

The trip was outstanding. Very professional staff and excellent accommodations.

All the arrangements were made through Affordable Tours and everything went as planned.

We booked the cruise and extensions which was 24 days. Evidentially, this trip could have been booked in segments which we were not aware of as the coming and going of various groups was very strange throughout. We started in Prague, always a great adventure. We were to go to Nuremberg, but due to low water were bused to the ship departure, Vilshofen, with options to hit the first two ports we missed by bus as excursions. Other folks joined from Vienna, a large group came onboard, and we were nearly at max going down the river. All but 18 people left at Budapest, including the Cruise Director. At that point we found out the second portion was a Wine Cruise with a different name, new director, and new passengers came aboard bringing us to capacity once again. So this became two cruises, actually, with totally different passengers on each except the original 18. As we continued for the extension, there were 40 of us until the end in Bucharest. One can see how this was rather disfunctional and more like a train ride with customers joining and departing continuously. Never knew who would be at dinner the next night. This may work from a business point, but very confusing to those that just purchased a single cruise with extensions and enjoyed meeting folks as we sailed down the river. Had I known there would be such a revolving door would have researched better and re-evaluated my choice. AMA, as always did a superb job, but the logistics of this whole adventure must have been a nightmare and stressful for the staff. Vacations need continuity.

River cruise with AmaWaterways was great. No problems. It was a great cruise.

Our AMAWaterways cruise manager, was informative, extremely engaging, and very welcoming and helpful. The boat was beautiful and service was impeccable.

Everything was included in the price of this tour including the off shore excursions. There were so many excursions that the week went by very quick.

It was a great trip. The guides were amazing and the cruise director on the ship was incredible. The rooms were really fine. Our only minor complaint: The food was presented nicely, but the taste was pretty average. We expected better. Also, the ship needs more staff in the dining room as the service, particularly at breakfast, was incredibly slow. Dinner was better. All things considered: It was wonderful and our complaints are truly nit picks.

We were disappointed with the land package. Our hotel in Zurich was changed and was awful. There was no A/C and breakfast was sub standard.

You have been of great help!

AMA waterways provided a quality experience. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly.
