It was our first river cruise but not our last ! We had a great time ! From the time we walked through security in the Zurich Airport until we returned to airport in Netherlands to board our plane home they had your back ! Very impressed and would definitely go AMA again.

This was our first river cruise but certainly not our last. AMA did a great job from the time we boarded until we said goodbye. Our trip started and finished in Amsterdam. From someone who is afraid of sailing, does not enjoy being on the water, and hated our first and only ocean cruise, I can say without reservation that we are going again - just booked with AMA for another river cruise in January 2017 - Vietnam.

Outstanding overall experience. Wonderful staff and crew. Fascinating countries (lower Danube). Guests we got to know were wonderful people.

Everything about the ship was clean and tidy. Our cabin (Class BA) was comfortable and roomy enough for two. The balcony is a bit cramped but two can sit out there if they are cozy. Ship staff was courteous and attentive to our needs. Food tries to be upper class but only gets to OK most nights. Some terrible fails for entrees and things where it seemed the chef never tasted what was coming out of the kitchen. You could see all the uneaten food sitting on the cleanup trays. A disappointment was that there was not more local/regional dishes available as we traveled through the pork capital of the world (germany). Breakfast was decent as was lunch but the hot tip for some variety is to dine for lunch in the cities as much as possible even though that costs some Euros. Evening entertainment most nights was good as was the optional concert in VIenna. This trip is really only a survey of many towns along the Rhine-Main-Danube waterway with a walking tour in each. Come back for a land-based vacation if you want to spend real time in any of the places you visit. The walking tours are too fast paced for any serious photography. If you want to take a lot of photos go on the slower-paced gentle walking tours instead. Overall, a good first introduction to a lot of scenery in very comfortable travel environment.

Everything so well organised. Comfortable cabins, excellent excursions, friendly and helpful staff, good food and wines and well thought out evening entertainment.

Ama is the best! Food, excursions, facilities, and best of all....the 24/7 coffee machine in the lounge.

Our Tulip Time cruise on the AmaPrima was exceptional in every way. From the well appointed staterooms and delicious foods and wine, to the interesting tours led by knowledgeable guides, everything combined to make this the best trip we've ever taken.

My wife and I prefer small ship sailing over the big ships. You can sit in your room, at a meal or on the deck and still enjoy the cruise and view the city or countryside as you go. For the most part, you only see the land on a big ship when you come to port, and someone has their hand out to show you what else their is. The rivers are used as their main avenue for transport of everything [people, ore, coal, gases etc.]. People live on the river and the ports are downtown so the main sites are handy [churches, pubs whatever]. No rocking to the boat so sea sickness is not an issue. Go ahead and enjoy, you only pass this way once [I think].
