It was the first cruise again on Amaverde after the long Covid break and it was a fantastic experience. The newly renovated ship and the itinerary were amazing and the staff was extremely friendly. Some small service hick-ups here and there but that wasn't surprising after such a long break. It was my first river cruise ever and it was a really great experience and I would definitively do it again! Big Thanks to the awesome Ama team on board!Show more

Super clean ship with friendly staff. The cruise manager, Vanessa, was so cheerful and full of energy plus she really cared about passengers. I had a cabin on the third deck at the end of the ship, the noise from the engine room was so loud and the vibration was almost unbearable when the ship was moving. I would have rated the accommodation with five stars except for the noise and vibration. I will stay in a cabin near the front of the ship on my future trips.Show more

it is my first river cruise and certainly the best trip I have ever had in my life. my parents also had so much fun. on the last day of the cruise, they were planning on their next cruise with amawayerway! our cruise manager Maddy was super kind, fun and knowledgeable. Our hotel manager Adlie led her team taking good care of us, made us feel like home away from home. And our wellness coach Alex kept us moving and educating us on building healthy lifestyle. not only we enjoyed the delicious healthy food but also we didn't gain any weight:) Oh, our wonderful captain! kept us safe and on schedule.Show more
