Exceeded expectations
October
Pros: A luxurious experience
Cons: Limited free time in port
Recommended: Yes
This was our first river cruise, but not our last! We had a great time on the Rhine River cruise. The cruise was organized so that we had 1/2 day to 1 day in port for most of the destinations. One slight criticism is we would have liked a little more time to explore some of the ports on our own, outside of the organized activities. We found the organized activities to be generally well-organized and interesting. I did bike tours on most days. The bike tours were moderately strenuous and were 9-17 miles over 3 hours. The city tours were slower paced, while the village tours provided more of a workout. My wife did the guided active walking tours and enjoyed them. In the off times we participated in the morning exercise classes, which were well paced for the age demographic on board. Food was generally very good, with multi-course lunches and dinners. The cabin was quite comfortable, although we found we rarely used the balcony, in part because of noisy, and amorous, neighbors. We stayed active during the day, so did not spend much time with the evening entertainment.

Captivating Rhine Wine River Cruise
March
Pros: excellent service, excursions, food and wine. Casual atmosphere. No formal evenings but a lovely chef's table dinner (slightly dressed up). Nice piano music in the lounge.
Cons: Can't think of any
Recommended: Yes
We had a lovely cruise down the Rhine River. The weather held up despite a forecast of rain every day. Service on the Amasiena was excellent even though the overall atmosphere is more casual. The ship is beautiful and the excursions were top notch. The castles were fabulous.The Cruise Director was extremely helpful and kept up to date on any possible changes. We would highly recommend this cruise. We would also recommend arriving a day early so that you can explore Amsterdam. It's such a great city.

AmaSiena Rhine river cruise
May
Pros: All staff were exceptional and ship was beautiful.
Cons: Tours were not as interesting as I hoped they would be. Too much walking even on the gentle tours.
Recommended: Yes
Ama tour manager took very good care of us. Well organized and friendly. We had to walk a long way from the ship to the bus and back after an already long walking tour each day. They should have a better method for drop off and pick up. The tours were ok not great. The food was exceptional. Covid safety protocols were followed consistently. Overall a great vacation and good value. I want to go back to Amsterdam but not Germany. The people were rude and not at all welcoming. Pre-cruise hotel in Lake Lucern was fantastic! Zurich was ok but didn’t meet my expectations.

The team took all the precautions to keep all the passengers safe and comfortable. Even though COVID protocols were in place, it didn’t get in the way of our vacation. The ship was clean, comfortable and inviting.
