More 2020 highlights
In 2020, AmaWaterways will offer two new itineraries on-board AmaDante. The seven-night Treasures of the Main & Rhine sailing from Nuremberg to Amsterdam will take guests through storybook scenery and iconic landmarks as well as through the locks of Main-Danube Canal.
Meanwhile, the new Vineyards of the Rhine & Moselle itinerary on board AmaDante from Amsterdam to Luxemburg allows guests to add a two-night stay in Amsterdam before embarking on a seven-night cruise through the UNESCO-designated Rhine and vineyard-clad Moselle valleys.
AmaWaterways has also announced more than 70 hosted wine-themed cruises in 2020, two of which will be on the new Treasures of the Main & Rhine itinerary. On these special cruises, guests will enjoy on-board lectures and wine tastings led by wine experts and shore excursions with epicurean experiences.
The cruise line will be enhancing its pre and post-cruise land extensions in 2020 too, offering guests immersive experiences in each destination.
Those on-board the Gems of Southeast Europe and Grand Danube itineraries will have the choice of a new three-night land extension in Istanbul, Turkey as an alternative to a four-night land extension in Bucharest and Brasov. The new extension will highlight the most iconic spots and the history behind the city, as well as featuring a tour of the legendary Topkapi Palace.
On the Colours of Provence and Spain itinerary, a new three-night land extension in Nice, France will also be offered as an alternative to a three-night land extension in Barcelona.
