River Cruises Benefits

Choosing a river cruise instead of the usual ocean cruise has many benefits, including:

· River cruising emphasizes the destination, rather than the on board experience, allowing guests to reach more cities and attractions than they could access via ocean cruising or bus tours and to focus on them in greater depth
· River cruising can take travelers to the heart and soul of their destinations because so many great cities and towns were established along the banks of rivers
· Calm and shallow river waters afford passengers a smooth and safe journey devoid of uncomfortable seasickness
· The size and configuration of river cruising vessels mean that every stateroom is an “outside” stateroom with a river view
· River cruising offers the antithesis of the “herd mentality” often associated with larger ocean vessels. AmaWaterways ships, for instance, accommodate between 30-100 passengers, allowing for a truly intimate experience
· Because river cruise ships are constantly moving, guests enjoy new scenery and vistas all day, every day, whether from their stateroom or other parts of the ship
· Unlike ocean cruises, AmaWaterways always include guided shore excursions in the price of the itinerary
