A Cultural Treasure Trove is Just Around the River Bend

Travel your way by selecting from a wide range of well-organized, inspiring and eventful excursions. You can choose to book individual excursions on board or, more conveniently, you can book discounted excursion packages in advance. Should you wish to make a last-minute excursion reservation on board, our cruise directors are always happy to assist. In every port you will find experienced, English-speaking local guides who will share their inside knowledge of the country and its people with you. In addition, through exclusive on-site tastings, on-board lectures and local tips, you will gain deeper insight into the regions and countries you visit. On board, enjoy traditional folklore dances in Budapest, shanty singers in Amsterdam, and true Oktoberfest fun in Bavaria.

There is so much more to the art of discovery than simply visiting places on a map. Personal encounters with people, their culture, architecture, and customs are what makes travel come to life. Every cruise with AMADEUS is designed so that you can experience the “best of“ the countries and regions you visit, with the longest possible layovers in your itinerary’s ports. Our excursion programs allow you to decide for yourself how intimately you‘d like to know a destination. Follow your heart and indulge your curiosity by finding out what’s over the horizon or around the next bend in the river.

For over 40 years we have been cruising the most beautiful regions along the European rivers and, from the very beginning, our special way of traveling has been rooted in a great respect for nature, culture and the people we meet along the way. From the launch of the first AMADEUS ship, we not only met environmental protection standards, but also set new ones. Culminating with our new ship in 2024, which has a hybrid engine. As a family business, sustainability is more than just a buzzword for us, it is fundamental to our core values.
