July
Pros: Convenient. Relaxing. Great staff, food, accommodations, and excursions.
Cons: River cruises are expensive but definitely worth it. Internet was spotty in the cabins but was usually fine in the lounge area.
Recommended: Yes
We enjoyed everything about this cruise. We had a great time socializing with others as well as enjoying time on our own. The ship was lovely. The staff was great. Good food, interesting excursions, beautiful views. We will definitely book another AmaWaterways cruise.

AmaWaterways excels
August
Pros: Excellent vessel and crew, superb Cruise Manager, wonderful itinerary with ports of call
Cons: none
Recommended: Yes
The crew members were truly committed in their efforts to ensure that every passenger had the best possible experience. We loved every minute of the Magnificent Europe Cruise. The Cruise Manager was very helpful in helping passengers tailor any custom outings, and was incredibly gregarious, thorough, and professional.

Christmas market on the Rhine
December
Pros: Very friendly staff
Cons: Squeaking sound near ceiling - very noticeable at night
Recommended: Yes
Only negative was the noise in our room - coming from the ceiling area near bathroom - notified the hotel manager. He thought it might be due to weather but it still needs to be fixed room 216. By chance a pair of walking sticks were returned to boat on the 14th by taxi person as he failed to put with our bags. Any chance they can be mailed back to me. Willing to pay for cost. These are Nordic walking sticks in a black bag. Might have my name in side - Carol Lee Owens

AMA
December
Pros: Organized, efficient especially getting us through the airport on our departure. Friendly and helpful staff on the ship . Menu on the buffet was excellent.
Cons: When we docked and had local guides, all were informative. In some instances, they gave more information than needed which meant less time for us to spend at the Christmas Markets.
Recommended: Yes
The only negative was that food was not available 24/7 so when we arrived and were not able to sleep because of the time change, some of us were hungry so we learned to keep snacks in out rooms. Local guides were very informative....which was ok except that some gave so much of a guided tour of the city that we had less time for the Christmas Markets which was a primary interest to most of us. It was an enjoyable trip in spite of the COLD temp, but we were fortunate that it did not rain or snow so weather conditions were perfect. It was the first time on the river so the voyage was calm....interesting going through the locks.
