Really enjoyed the cruise. The food was exceptional, the excursions fun and enlightening and the entire crew was exceptional, fun, and professional. Bully for the Captain and Hotel Manager for setting the tone onboard. The Amabella experience must be the best! P.S. Cruise Manager Stefan is is star.

It was the first cruise again on Amaverde after the long Covid break and it was a fantastic experience. The newly renovated ship and the itinerary were amazing and the staff was extremely friendly. Some small service hick-ups here and there but that wasn't surprising after such a long break. It was my first river cruise ever and it was a really great experience and I would definitively do it again! Big Thanks to the awesome Ama team on board!
