Greetings valued clients.

When I see a good incentive package, I like to share it with my clients. Here is one such offer during WAVE season that is not to be missed! River cruising.

AmaWaterways, is my preferred river cruise company. Here is yet another reason I love this river cruise line. Here is a personalized handwritten postcard from the Captain, the Hotel Manager and the Cruise Manager! Now this is something that does not happen on other lines.

AmaWaterways: A Family-Operated Luxury River Cruise Experience

Founded and operated by a family, AmaWaterways is recognized as a premium luxury river cruise line. They offer an array of river cruises across Europe, Colombia, Vietnam, and the Nile River.

A distinctive feature of AmaWaterways is its commitment to wellness. Each ship includes a fitness manager who leads morning stretching classes and afternoon programs on the top deck. Guests can enjoy healthy meal options daily, reinforcing the wellness theme. The cruise line typically offers three types of excursions: walking/bus tours, hiking opportunities, and bike tours. Within the walking/bus tour category, participants can choose from three activity levels: gentle strolls, regular walks, or more vigorous hikes, with late riser options available as well. For those who prefer to explore independently, bikes are available on board, and hiking sticks can be provided for added support. Clearly, wellness is an integral part of the AmaWaterways experience.

Dining on board is a culinary delight, with meals prepared by skilled chefs offering an impressive variety of options. A highlight of the dining experience is the Chef’s Table, which promises a memorable evening.

Guests can also enjoy complimentary beer or wine with lunch and dinner, as well as mimosas during breakfast. Each evening before dinner, the lounge hosts a “Sip and Sail” event featuring a signature cocktail or guests’ choice of drink.

AmaWaterways maintains a guest capacity of 150, allowing for a higher guest-to-crew ratio. This intimate setting fosters social interactions and the opportunity to forge new friendships.

One of the aspects I particularly appreciate about river cruising is the ease of boarding and disembarking from the vessel. Guests simply scan their room key and traverse a short gangway of 20 to 30 feet, allowing for effortless access to buses, town explorations, bike rides, or hiking adventures. The return process is equally streamlined, with no bag scanning or long lines to navigate.

Now that I've shared the highlights of AmaWaterways, let’s discuss their exciting offers.

For those booking by January 31, complimentary pre or post-cruise land packages are available for 2, 3, or 4 days, along with reduced airfare. This is an excellent opportunity to enhance your river cruise experience with included hotels, meals, and excursions.

Additionally, a special Cruise Brothers Exclusive offer includes free prepaid gratuities on all 2025 Europe sailings, excluding Portugal. This represents a generous gift ranging from $400 to $600 from Cruise Brothers. To take advantage of these savings, bookings must be completed by January 31.

To explore the various cruises offered by AmaWaterways, think of vibrant springtime tulips, enchanting Christmas markets, exquisite French wines, the picturesque Rhine River Gorge, and the captivating Danube. I would be delighted to assist you in finding the river cruise that best suits your preferences. Gather your friends and start planning your unforgettable river cruise adventure!

I will also be sharing more WAVE season offers soon. This is the prime time for booking vacations in 2025, 2026, or 2027. Cruise Brothers has numerous exclusive offers, and booking by January 31 is crucial. Start planning your next getaway!

Warm wishes,
