DISCOVER AMAVOYAGES

At AmaWaterways, we strive to provide new and exciting river cruise experiences across the globe for our clientele. That’s why we developed our “AmaVoyages” river cruise experiences in Africa, Portugal, Vietnam, Cambodia and Russia. It’s our way of making capital cities, adventurous destinations, and remarkable river ways accessible to you in these fascinating countries.

The river cruise experience in these countries is separate and distinct from our European ships, amenities and services. AmaVoyages nonetheless delivers the highest standards available on these river cruises and accompanying land tours.

Africa

Set off along the banks of Chobe National Park, home to one of the densest populations of wildlife in Africa, as you escape the busy world and relax in this serene wildlife environment. Encounter elephants, lions, hippos and buffalo on excursions by boat and open-air vehicles. Throughout this AmaVoyage, you’ll stay at iconic safari lodges, game camps and exclusive hotels throughout South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Kenya and Tanzania. And of course, you’ll be taken back by your surroundings with the sights and sounds of the stunning Victoria Falls. Professional guides will lead daily wildlife excursions, offering the opportunity to spot elephant, rhino, hippo, and many more species that symbolize the true African safari. The exclusive new “Africa Safaris and Wildlife Cruise” is an experience of a lifetime that is sure to never be forgotten.

Vietnam and Cambodia

Marvel at ancient temples and floating markets along the Mekong River as you travel through two of South East Asia’s beautiful countries, Vietnam and Cambodia. Along the way, visit a Buddhist monastery, the Royal Palace and the Silver Pagoda in Phnom Penh, and try your hand at the delicate art of rice paper-making. With the Mekong River as your highway, you’ll begin to understand the important role it plays in both the culture and lives of the people who call the area ‘home’. Temples, trade routes and fishing villages in the river’s path are today untouched by time, just as the way of life they represent. All of this unfolds in seamless luxury with “Vietnam, Cambodia & the Riches of the Mekong.”

Russia

Journey with us on the Volga River from Moscow to St. Petersburg, as you explore historic villages and grand palaces. You’ll visit Red Square, the Peterhof Palace and be our guest at a ballet performance at the famous Hermitage Theatre. As you voyage down the Volga River, relax while the AmaKatarina delivers you from one incredible destination to the next, many of which you would otherwise never experience on a trip to Russia. Kizhi, a small, secluded island just north of Lake Onega, home to some of the most amazing wooden architecture in Russia such as the remarkable Church of Transfiguration, is but one of your stops on this fascinating journey. By the time you return home, you’ll have a new profound passion for both Russia and its deep-rooted culture.

Portugal

Discover the rich history of Portugal and Spain as you journey through the Douro River Valley on board the brand-new AmaVida. The Douro River is one of Europe’s most pure and unspoiled rivers decorated with deep cleft gorges, lush vineyards, and sleepy fishing villages. Choose from a 7-night roundtrip Porto cruise with a pre-land program in Portugal’s capital, Lisbon. Or cruise from Vega Terron to Porto, with land programs in beautiful Madrid and Lisbon. Visit the capital of the North, Porto; ancient and picturesque city of Lamego; Salamanca, Spain; Pinhão, known as the wine lovers Mecca; and much more.
