    Christmas Cruise Extraordinaire

    12/2015 Danube River Cities
    Full Review
    We have taken many cruises but this was by far the best. The staff did everything possible to make us feel pampered. The food was fabulous, the entertainment a tad campy but incredibly fun and the tours were both informative and extremely interesting. We appreciated that all tours offered the same venues but could be done at various paces (regular walkers, easy walkers, etc.) Can't wait to go again.
    Pros Everything! Food, locations, specialized pace of tours, attention to details.
    Cons Some Christmas markets closed during the cruise time but that was not unexpected since our cruise ran before and after Christmas.

    Melodies of the Danube

    Full Review
    We were very pleased with AmaWaterways, the AmaPrima and it's outstanding staff as well as the itinerary offered on the Melodies of the Danube tour. The optional Folklore Dinner in Prague was one of the highlights of our trip. We also thoroughly enjoyed the trio who performed one evening on our ship. It was a trio of 2 violinists and a guitarist from Bratislava who were incredibly accomplished!
    Pros Traveling by ship on a river allowed for frequent stops, relaxing travel and scenic views.
    Cons Very few! but, we would have enjoyed more free time in Salzburg

    12/2014 Christmas Markets on the Danube
    Full Review
    This was my first trip with AMA. Even though I enjoyed myself thoroughly I found my self comparing to Uniworld. The Prima is a fairly new ship and it still looked like it. I thought my stateroom was much better than the ones I had previously on Uniworld. I really hated the layout of the dining room. It was very chopped up and I felt it was the layout actually contributed to a higher noise level. I really like the fact that the cruise director traveled with us to Prague on our post cruise package. This added a nice continuity. The thing that impressed me most was that the cruise director met us in our hotel lobby at 4:00 am for our 4:30 transfer. When we arrive at the airport in Prague another AMA rep was there to assist with luggage and check in. We definitely ended on a high note.
    Pros Beautiful interior, great stateroom size, Cruise director travels with you for the post cruise.
    Cons Dining room layout is terrible, food was just ok, dining room service was just ok

    Budapest to Prague with AMA Waterways

    Full Review
    The staff was very friendly and courteous. The layout and design / décor of the ship was luxurious. The quality of food exceeded any cruise line we have experienced. The combination of menu and buffet choices were appreciated, as was the wonderful specialty restaurant. Our Cruise Manager, Ornulf Johannessen was fantastic and genuine. Tour guides were very knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor, and could draw comparison to the U.S. sites and customs. Champagne and white wine was excellent. Red wine was a bit light or rough - but it did reflect the specialty of the cruise area. Housekeeping staff kept the ship immaculate and were very considerate. On-board music could be a bit more up-to-date. Hungarian dancers brought aboard were excellent, and excursions to the Vienna wine "heurigen" and the Prague folk dinner were very enjoyable.

    Christmas market on the Rhine

    Full Review
    Only negative was the noise in our room - coming from the ceiling area near bathroom - notified the hotel manager. He thought it might be due to weather but it still needs to be fixed room 216. By chance a pair of walking sticks were returned to boat on the 14th by taxi person as he failed to put with our bags. Any chance they can be mailed back to me. Willing to pay for cost. These are Nordic walking sticks in a black bag. Might have my name in side - Carol Lee Owens

    The only negative was that food was not available 24/7 so when we arrived and were not able to sleep because of the time change, some of us were hungry so we learned to keep snacks in out rooms. Local guides were very informative....which was ok except that some gave so much of a guided tour of the city that we had less time for the Christmas Markets which was a primary interest to most of us. It was an enjoyable trip in spite of the COLD temp, but we were fortunate that it did not rain or snow so weather conditions were perfect. It was the first time on the river so the voyage was calm....interesting going through the locks.
    Pros Organized, efficient especially getting us through the airport on our departure. Friendly and helpful staff on the ship . Menu on the buffet was excellent.
    Cons When we docked and had local guides, all were informative. In some instances, they gave more information than needed which meant less time for us to spend at the Christmas Markets.
