Welcome

Nothing can quite prepare you for a “bucket list” experience on an AmaWaterways Africa Safaris & Wildlife Cruise. There’s much to see on the redlined banks of the Chobe; and surely few experiences compare to personally staring wide-eyed as the largest concentration of elephants in all of Africa freely swimming and splashing about in their natural habitat. We’ve set out to create a truly unique journey by combining a classic safari experience with a scenic wildlife cruise to offer you the best of both worlds. Each one of our five meticulously planned safari and wildlife programs include an incredible four-night stay aboard the beautiful Zambezi Queen, offering modern accommodations, fine dining and truly a magical way to encounter some of Africa’s most iconic wildlife up close in one of the world’s most diverse ecosystems. You’ll also spend two nights at one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of the World,” Zimbabwe’s majestic Victoria Falls, following your cruise. And for the ultimate thrilling and poignant wildlife experiences possible, extend any one of our five itineraries with our new captivating extension to Rwanda. Spend four amazing nights discovering Rwanda’s natural wonders and wildlife on an epic adventure with the crown jewel in the country’s sparkling collection of amazing attractions, trekking for Mountain Gorillas. No matter which itinerary you choose, you’ll be treated to on-going once-in-a-lifetime moments that will forever touch your heart and soul. Sincerely, Rudi Schreiner President

OUR STORY

AMAWATERWAYS, FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED SINCE 2002

Family-owned and operated, AmaWaterways has been a passion project for its founders since its creation in 2002. President Rudi Schreiner designed his first ship back in 1975 while sailing the Amazon for seven months. Since the completion of the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal in 1992, Rudi has been a driving force for river cruise travel—and for these efforts has been recognized as the “Most Innovative Cruise Executive” and was presented with the prestigious “Lifetime Achievement Award” by Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA). Executive Vice President, Kristin Karst brings extensive experience in luxury travel, river cruising and customer service to AmaWaterways. Rudi and Kristin partnered with Jimmy Murphy, a brilliant travel entrepreneur who built Brendan Vacations. His son Gary now carries on his father’s tradition in his role as Vice President of Sales. These families came together to create a premiere travel experience for AmaWaterways’ guests. Our commitment to this unifying goal is what makes an AmaWaterways river cruise stand out from the rest. While we received the 2016 Cruise Critic Editors’ Picks Award for the “Best River Cruise Line” and were recognized as having the “Highest Rated River Cruise Ships in Europe” by travel authority Berlitz, we never rest on our laurels. AmaWaterways is always humbled by the wonderful accolades we receive, which underscore our whole-hearted dedication to the happiness of every guest who travels with us.

Land of the Gentle Giants

THE AFRICAN ELEPHANT IS THE LARGEST ANIMAL ON EARTH

THE CHOBE RIVER Stare wide-eyed as Africa’s largest population of elephants freely swim and splash about. Feel humbled as you spot the graceful giraffe bow his elongated neck to quench his thirst at a watering hole. Listen to the grunt of the rhino resting nearby, or the song of the lilac-breasted roller along with scores of buffaloes, lions, crocodiles, hippos, monkeys, baboons and over 450 bird species. This is the Chobe River, undeniably one of Africa’s most beautiful rivers, supporting a diversity and concentration of wildlife unparalleled anywhere else on the continent. The life-giving Chobe River runs through the northern part of Botswana’s Chobe National Park. Lending its name to the park itself, the Chobe River is part of the larger Cuando River, which flows through the game-rich “Four Corners” region where Namibia, Zambia, Botswana and Zimbabwe meet. From there, the Chobe eventually flows into the Zambezi River and then tumbles over the precipice at Victoria Falls. The Chobe riverfront, situated in the extreme northeast of the park, attracts an almost unbelievable density of game, especially during the dry season, from March through November, when water inland is scarce and migratory animals head towards the river.

AUTHENTIC ENCOUNTERS Known as the “Land of the Gentle Giants,” Chobe National Park offers one of the densest concentrations of wildlife, including the world’s largest elephant population. Spot a pride of lions and leopards grazing, or a pack of hyenas. Find zebras lunching on their diet of grass and twigs, or perhaps an entire herd of buffalo roaming. You may even catch a glimpse of the elusive cheetah, the world’s fastest land animal. It’s also one of the only areas one can find puku antelopes. Be treated to up-close encounters with the animals in their natural habitat while on your four-night Zambezi Queen wildlife and safari cruise. Each method of safari provides an extraordinarily distinctive perspective for wildlife viewing. Double decker barges let you venture into the smaller channels of the park, offering an unusual viewpoint to observe hippos and elephants. Driving through the park in open-top vehicles allows the safari to search a wider span and more easily follow game in motion.

Life along the Chobe

THE ELEGANT AND ECO-FRIENDLY ZAMBEZI QUEEN

ZAMBEZI QUEEN Recognized at the World Travel Awards as “Best in Class” an unprecedented four years in a row, as well as earning the title “World’s Leading Boutique Cruise” from 2012 to 2016, the Zambezi Queen offers unparalleled sophistication in one of the world’s most captivating places. Unlike a typical river cruise that travels from one port to the next, the Zambezi Queen was designed for an entirely different purpose—to facilitate optimal game viewing along the Chobe. As this floating hotel drifts along the river, animals perceive no threat and come to the water to drink and bathe, affording you with an amazingly up-close view and once-in-alifetime experiences. The 28-passenger Zambezi Queen provides guests with all the modern-day conveniences to ensure a perfect journey. The top deck features an enclosed air-conditioned dining room, lounge and bar, as well as an open-air sun deck complete with a plunge pool. Celebrated South African designer, Jenni Button, created a classically elegant, yet contemporary interior, using understated tones that make the wildlife on the river banks the star of the show. The 14 suites, including four master suites, feature air-conditioning and a private balcony where you can enjoy unobstructed views of the river and African landscape. Wake up to the sight of an elephant drinking from the river, or watch a fish eagle take flight—all from the comfort of your own luxurious bed.

AFRICAN STORKS

FISHING & BIRD WATCHING In addition to exhilarating safaris, enjoy a range of fun experiences on your Chobe River adventure. Hook a tiger fish, or one of the many bream species, such as African pike, tilapia or catfish. Prefer bird watching? Since the Chobe River is home to more than 450 species, you’ll be able to spot a host of birds, including African skimmers, rock pratincoles and the African finfoot.

Bountiful breakfasts and lunches prepare you for your invigorating daily adventures, and during the evening, enjoy multi-course dinners. Throughout the day, be treated to complimentary South African wines, beer, local spirits, soft drinks and bottled water. On one of the nights, enjoy an African-themed dinner with traditional dishes and entertainment.

LOCAL EVENING ENTERTAINMENT-

A TASTE OF AFRICA

A WARM WELCOME ON BOARD

One of the most enriching ways to discover Africa is through its cuisine and spirited dance, as well as its music, which varies throughout the continent. Forms of dance and music are heavily influenced by tribal cultures and can be a spiritual experience. The cuisine of a region reflects its ecosystem, which in this part of Africa, ranges from lush rainforests to deserts. While cruising, be treated to an African-themed dinner, combining the traditional food, music and dance of the Chobe River region. w w w. a m a w a t e r w a y s . c o m

Responsibility towards the environment and wildlife forms the foundation upon which the Zambezi Queen was built. • A water jet propulsion system replaces the conventional propeller system, causing no damage to the river bed. • Only the latest fuel efficient and low emission generators are run during daylight hours, with the boat operating on battery power through the night. • Hot water is provided by a solar heating system. • Energy-saving lights are used throughout the ship. • There are water-saving taps and showers. • There is an onboard sewage processing plant. • Cleaning detergents and soaps are biodegradable. • Five-stage water purification plant, using river water in showers and tap.

Th e Smoke That Th unders

THE VICTORIA FALLS BRIDGE CONNECTS TWO GREAT COUNTRIES, ZAMBIA AND ZIMBABWE

VICTORIA FALLS Recognized as one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of the World,” the combined height and width of Victoria Falls makes it one of the largest waterfalls in the world. The falls are a mile wide, spanning the entire breadth of the Zambezi River; and at twice the height of Niagara Falls, the spray and mists rise upwards to about 1,650 feet and can be seen from over 30 miles away. Millions of cubic liters of water crash upon the riverbed every minute. These thunderous echoes give the UNESCO World Heritage Site its local name, Mosi-oa-Tunya, which literally translates as “The Smoke That Thunders.” The roars can be heard for many more miles. Forming the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, Victoria Falls and its surrounding national parks are home to sizeable populations of elephants, buffaloes, giraffes and zebras. Vervet monkeys and baboons are also quite common, and the Zambezi River above the falls contains a large population of hippos and crocodiles. The area’s surrounding vegetation is woodland savannah with the most notable exception being the unique rainforest immediately adjacent to the falls, which is nurtured by the spray generated by it. Rare flora for the area grow here, including ebony, pod mahogany and date palms. Vibrant rainbows are often spotted as well at both daytime and nighttime, and Victoria Falls is one of the few places in the world where this elusive, evening moonbow can be seen.

DISCOVERING WATERFALLS Upon seeing Victoria Falls for the first time in 1855, Scottish missionary and explorer Dr. David Livingstone exclaimed, “No one can imagine the beauty of the view from anything witnessed in England. It had never been seen before by European eyes; but scenes so lovely they must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight.” It’s interesting to note Victoria Falls, which Livingstone named after the then-current Queen Victoria, is one of the few areas in Africa which retained its British name after gaining independence. Livingstone was an ardent abolitionist and strongly believed the slave trade could be stopped by promoting trade and Christianity in Africa. His explorations were fueled solely to get this message across to Westerners. When he died in 1873, loyal attendants transported his body thousands of miles to the coast, so he could be returned to England and buried in Westminster Abbey.

CAPE GRACE HOTEL WITH TABLE MOUNTAIN IN THE BACKGROUND

SOUTH AFRICA CALLING ALL WINE LOVERS

CAPE TOWN From iconic Table Mountain to dramatic coastal roads leading to the Cape of Good Hope to the vineyards carpeting the Winelands, Cape Town offers something for everyone. The proximity to nature is a constant source of wonder in Cape Town, whether it is watching whales breach from a restaurant deck overlooking beautiful False Bay, from July through October; or seeing a veritable sanctuary of penguins, one of the few places in the world where you can get close to them at Boulders Beach. Cape Town has the oldest wine industry outside of Europe, and off the coast of Cape Town lies Robben Island, a prison to Nelson Mandela, the “Father of the Nation.” Today, it’s a museum, as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

JOHANNESBURG Johannesburg is South Africa’s largest city, with a multi-cultural, cosmopolitan vibe. The city has been going through a major urban revival. Wonderful restaurants and sidewalk cafés offer virtually every type of cuisine. Glitzy shopping and art galleries— Sandton City and Nelson Mandela Square are a shopper’s paradise. There are many rewarding sites that pay homage to the great South African leader, Nelson Mandela, including the Apartheid Museum, Liliesleaf Farm, Nelson Mandela Square and the Mandela House in Soweto. Once a name synonymous with the oppression and injustice of apartheid, people are now drawn to Soweto and to the vitality of Vilakazi Street, home to Nelson Mandela and his family from 1946 to the 1990s. In fact, this is the only street in the world to have housed two Nobel Peace Prize winners, Mandela and Bishop Desmond Tutu.

AFRICAN PENGUINS

Producing over 264 million gallons of wine, South Africa is a thriving wine scene. Centuries-old wine estates in classic Cape-Dutch homesteads share their grand heritage with wine connoisseurs from all over the globe. A visit to these locations provides a truly unique opportunity to try different wines with varietals you can only find in South Africa. The approach to wine tasting here is also distinctive and special. Ever paired a cupcake with wine? Or specialty salts? Here, they often go beyond traditional European pairings. The Winelands near Cape Town are comprised of the Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl valleys, and take advantage of the coastal influences of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Stellenbosch is often considered the heart of the South African wine industry, and their many vineyards are known for red wines with terroir distinction, particularly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinotage and Shiraz. The fortified wines produced in the Paarl Valley are terroir-driven as well. Franschhoek is known for its full-flavored white wines with noticeable acidity levels. AmaWaterways’ guests will visit two renowned wineries here. Get more connected to South Africa’s Cape Winelands at amawaterways.com/connections

Th e Big Five

LEOPARDS PROTECT THEIR FOOD FROM OTHER ANIMALS BY DRAGGING THEIR PREY HIGH UP INTO THE TREES

GREATER KRUGER NATIONAL PARK The mighty roar of the lion, the powerful call of the elephant, the thunderous clap of a rhinoceros herd—the wild things are certain to be found within South Africa’s massive Kruger National Park area. All “Big Five” are represented here: lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants and buffaloes. You may also find cheetahs, spotted hyenas, wild dogs, kudu, nyala, impala, wildebeests, zebras, waterbucks, warthogs, baboons, Nile crocodiles (the world’s second largest reptile), water monitor lizards and puff adder snakes. One of Africa’s largest reserves, Kruger stretches through 7,500 square miles in northeastern South Africa, and borders Zimbabwe and Mozambique. Becoming South Africa’s first National Park in 1926, Kruger has several private game reserves in which to explore. With over 270 animal species, 517 types of birds, 90 varieties of fish and amphibians, 2,000 kinds of plants and even bushman rock paintings, there is much to see and experience. AmaWaterways guests taking part in either the Wildlife & The Falls or Stars of South Africa itineraries will visit the private Manyeleti or Timbavati game reserves. While there are no fences between the national park and the bordering reserves, allowing wildlife to roam freely, the reserves are not accessible for day visitors, meaning you practically have the bush all to yourself for an exceptional safari experience.

THE RHYTHM OF THE SAVANNAH Life can be found everywhere throughout the long grasses and sparse vegetation of the African savannah. From massive herds of impala to lounging lions, the diversity of this region sets it apart from any other location in the world. Life changing experiences are filled with awe-inspiring sights and exhilarating encounters with the mighty animal kingdom. The rhythm of the savannah is unique, and a vast departure from every-day, human life. Here, wildlife prefers to spend certain parts of the day resting, usually when the sun is at its hottest, and comes alive when the air begins to cool. The best time to experience the melodious song of the wild and to see creatures in their natural state is very early in the morning or in the late afternoon and evening. It is at these times predators start their hunt, and herd animals leave the comfort of their shady resting places to seek out water and graze. Water sources are the best spots to view the natural habitat and behaviors of all African creatures, and to experience the unique dynamics between different species as they converge at these life-giving oases.

The Essence of Luxury

FINE DINING IN THE CHARMING VICTORIAN ATMOSPHERE OF THE DINING CAR

A warm and welcoming staff, air-conditioned lounges and deluxe suites, five-star cuisine, excellent South African wines and extraordinary views await explorers when traveling in turn-of-the-twentieth-century style throughout this approximately 1,000-mile journey. Start with a sendoff at the colonial-era rail station in Victoria Falls. From there, wind your way through the enduring beauty of the African bush, traversing Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park, a rich and diverse wildlife sanctuary where animals can be spotted from the train and where you’ll be treated to a game drive excursion. Continuing towards Pretoria, you will be met by lush, mauve blossoms and Jacaranda trees lining streets and possibly even a flock of preening peacocks. Through it all, you’ll be able to watch the passing world at the pace of a time gone by, but with all the comforts and conveniences of modern day.

LUXURY TRAVEL DELUXE SUITES The epitome of luxury with handsome wood-paneling and Edwardian style features, the air-conditioned 108-square foot upgraded suites accommodate two people, offering the option of twin or spacious double beds. In the en-suite bathroom, there’s a shower, heated towel rack, hair dryers and shaver plugs. All suites are equipped with a writing desk and a personal safe for valuables. There is also a fridge filled with beverages of your choice and room service is available 24 hours a day.

EXQUISITE CUISINE There’s a focus on using fresh local ingredients and creating traditional dishes such as local game. Every morning there is a full breakfast with dishes cooked to order. Lunch and dinner are complemented by a selection of the finest South African wines. Dine on fine china, crisp linen and polished silver in the exquisite Victorian dining room. Dressing up for dinner is all part of the fun here with cocktail attire for ladies, and jackets and ties for gentlemen.

GIRAFFES ARE THE WORLDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S TALLEST MAMMALS AND CAN GROW UP TO 19 FEET TALL

TANZANIA Tanzania, located in East Africa, is the land of safaris, as it is home to four of the African continent’s most renowned national parks. Each park is alive with a wild world of its own, and you’ll get to experience all four on Golden Trails of East Africa.

THE POWER OF THE SERENGETI

LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK

Every year, the Serengeti witnesses the world’s largest terrestrial mammal migration, making it one of the most impressive natural events in the world. Approximately 750,000 zebras precede over one million wildebeest and then hundreds of thousands of other game bring up the rear of the migration path, traveling over 1,800 miles. It’s a powerful sight to behold, but it’s also quite a laborious trek, which has been occurring for over a million years despite all the inherent dangers. Crocodile-infested waters and prides of lions are all potential predators. Yet so strong is the ancient instinct to move, that no drought, gorge or threat can hold them back.

Lake Manyara National Park is one of Africa’s alkaline water lakes, which attracts a vast population of water birds and a wide range of animals. The park is famous for its treeclimbing lions, since there are only two lion populations in the world that can climb trees. Other animals frequently seen in the park include buffaloes, giraffes, cheetahs, monkeys, impalas and olive baboons.

The many other incredible phenomena that happen in the Serengeti includes the birthing of the wildebeest calves in January and February. Some 300,000 to 500,000 calves are born in a nearly synchronized birthing that all take place within a few weeks of each other.

TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK Tarangire boasts a variety of wildlife as diverse as its landscape. With four of the “Big Five” also residing within the park, except for the endangered black rhinoceros, Tarangire is home to all of Tanzania’s most iconic animals, including wildebeest, zebra, gazelle and giraffes. The park is also home to three endangered animals that can’t be found anywhere else in the country: the fringe-eared oryx, the towering greater kudu, and the tiny ashy starling.

NGORONGORO CONSERVATION AREA

Get more connected to the Serengeti and Tanzania at amawaterways.com/connections

Often called “Africa’s Eden” and the “Eighth Wonder of the World,” Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact caldera in the world, and offers a unique environment that has remained virtually unchanged since the dawn of time. An estimated number of 25,000 large mammals roam through this lush paradise, including the endangered black rhino, giant-tusked elephants, black-maned lions, bright-pink flamingos, white-bearded wildebeests, spotted leopards and cheetahs—among many others.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK The UNESCO World Heritage Serengeti spans 12,000 square miles and teems with the most magnificent wildlife, offering the most exciting and unrivaled game-viewing. It boasts a diversity of flora and fauna that is unavailable anywhere else in the world, and it has the largest population of lions in the world with more than 3,000 living in this ecosystem due in part to the abundance of prey species.

TERMS & CONDITIONS

SOME OF OUR PARTNERS

Parties: In these terms and conditions, “you” or “passenger” or “participant” refers to the person booking, purchasing or traveling on the cruise, and to individuals traveling as part of that person’s reservation. “We” or “us” refers to Amadeus Waterways, Inc., a Calfornia corporation (“AMA”) and AmaWaterways, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (“AWL”). AMA offers the travel and enters into these terms and conditions with you pursuant to arrangements made with AWL. Deposit and Final Payment: To confirm a cruise or cruise & land reservation, we require a deposit of $400 per person for Europe and Asia itineraries and $2,400 per person for Africa itineraries on or before the deposit due date indicated on the confirmation. Transoceanic airline flights and packages require an additional deposit of $350 per person for economy class or $600 per person for business/first class flights. Certain airline tickets require non-refundable, full payment at the time of reservation. Hotel Extra Nights require a non-refundable deposit of $50 per stateroom at the time of confirmation of the hotel availability. Final payment is due no later than 90 days before the travel start date. Cancellation Charges: In the unfortunate event a participant must cancel travel, notice to AmaWaterways must be via email to Res@AmaWaterways.com, which must include a return receipt and read notation, or other writing stating clearly and correctly each guest’s name, ship name, start and end date of the cruise and a brief statement of the reason for cancellation. Other forms of notice are not sufficient. The effective date of the cancellation is the date we receive the written cancellation notice. Name changes, a substitution of a participant or a reduction in the number of guests in a stateroom are treated as a cancellation in that all applicable cancellation charges apply. Cancellation charges for bookings within charter and part-charter agreements are as per the charter contract. All other cancellation charges are per-person, based on the cancellation date, as follows:

Pricing: All prices are in US dollars. In the event that a cruise fare listed, quoted or advertised through any website, printed collateral, reservations person, travel agent or any other source is booked, but is incorrect due to an electronic error, typographical error, human error or any other error causing the fare to be listed, quoted or advertised for an amount not intended by AmaWaterways, AmaWaterways reserves the right to correct the erroneous fare by requesting the passenger to pay the correct fare intended, or by canceling the cruise. Airfares, air taxes and air surcharges quoted on your invoice or by a reservation agent are only guaranteed once airfare deposit or full payment is received by AmaWaterways. AmaWaterways reserves the right to increase prices without notice. Prices Do Not Include: Published prices do not include vessel fuel surcharges; passport and visa fees; baggage fees; port charges and fees; travel protection; vaccinations; laundry; additional food and beverages; optional excursions; gratuities or other items or services of a personal nature. Passport and Visas: A valid passport is required for each participant. Passports must be valid for at least six (6) months after the scheduled return date to your home country. For travel to Asia and Africa, we require a copy of your valid passport prior to or at final payment. If not received at this time, embarkation may be denied and cancellation penalties will apply. Guests on the Vietnam/ Cambodia Cruise & Land program must obtain a Multiple Entry Visa for Vietnam, as they will have two different points of entry into Vietnam, and a Single Entry Visa for Cambodia. Guests on the cruise only Vietnam/Cambodia itinerary will require a single entry visa for Vietnam and Cambodia. For Africa guests, a valid passport with 8 open/ non-stamped pages is required. At publication time, a visa is required for a US citizen to travel to Vietnam, Cambodia, Rwanda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe (as well as numerous other countries). Non-US citizens must consult the appropriate consulates regarding visa and other document requirements. Obtaining required visas and any other required travel documentation, and assuring these are complete and correct in all ways, is the sole responsibility of each participant.

verify the accuracy or completeness of any participant’s visa or other required documentation and shall not be responsible or liable for delay or missed portion of any part of the itinerary or other problems resulting from the participant lacking the appropriate travel documentation. Travel Documents: Only after receipt of full payment, travel documents (including airline confirmation information, if applicable) will be sent by regular ground delivery (US & Canada), approximately 3-4 weeks prior to departure. (Delay in final payment will delay delivery of travel documents.) Expedited delivery may be possible for an additional charge. FLIGHTS & AIRPORT TRANSFERS Flight Schedules & Airfares: AmaWaterways offers special airfares based on the flight and seat availability of contracted carriers. We are able to accept a traveler’s choice of preferred air carrier, flight schedule, and some deviations so long as the requests are made at the time of booking the airline reservation. To hold/confirm an airline reservation, the airlines require your full legal name as it appears on your passport. For contract airline fares a deposit of $350 per person (economy class tickets) or $600 per person (business/first-class tickets) is required to secure the flight schedule and quoted price. Published airfare prices require full payment at the time of reservation. Once the airfare deposit or full payment is received your airline tickets will be issued and any changes will be subject to penalty if not cancelled within 24 hours of ticketing. Should the name on your airline reservation not match your passport exactly, your airline reservation will have to be cancelled, full penalties will be assessed and your reservation will have to be recreated subject to market pricing at the time of the new reservation. Air tickets are economy class, unless otherwise requested and additional charge for upgrade is paid, and are issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of the relevant airline(s). Airlines require your name to appear on your airline ticket exactly as it appears on your passport. We shall not be responsible or liable for consequences of name on an airline reservation and passport not matching exactly. We shall not be responsible or liable for costs resulting from airline schedule changes, lost air ticket, delay, disruption or cancelled flight; lost baggage or missed connections. Changes: Airline tickets issued by AmaWaterways have restrictions. For example, they cannot be reissued, transferred, or exchanged. Any changes made to an airline ticket, including minor name corrections, will incur a minimum $350 per ticket change fee plus any additional increases in the cost of the airfare. A change or refund request must be made through us, but may not be possible. For example, some airline tickets are non-refundable. Limitation on Special Requests & Frequent Flier Numbers: As a courtesy, we may try to relay a request for seat assignments, meal requests, frequent flyer numbers, or other special assistance to the particular airline. The sole authority to grant such requests rest with the airline and is not under the control of AmaWaterways. Whether or not we relay a request to an airline, you or your travel agent must always confirm directly with the airline regarding any such requests. To insure you receive proper credit on your frequent flyer account, we recommend you provide your frequent flyer number to the airline at the time of check-in. Please note our airfare prices use special contract fares that may not allow you to receive credit on your frequent flier account nor may they allow you to use miles to upgrade to a higher class. Baggage: Please check with the airline regarding their baggage allowance. Most airlines limit checked bags to either one or two pieces per person, and limit carry-on

baggage to one piece per person, and weight and size restrictions apply. There are strict luggage restrictions for our programs in Africa; please ask for details. We shall not be responsible or liable for costs or consequences of participant exceeding the airline’s baggage restrictions, or for loss, theft, damage or delay to participant’s baggage. Airport Transfers: Guests purchasing transoceanic airfare through us may qualify for complimentary group airport transfers on a scheduled arrival between the airport and the ship or hotel, and on a scheduled departure between the hotel or the ship and airport. Airport transfers included in your airfare package will be reflected on your travel confirmation and in your travel documents. For Africa, transfers are included for all guests, providing we have received airline flight information. If airport transfers are not reflected on your confirmation, AmaWaterways is not responsible for providing airport transfer service to you. Please note: our group airport transfer service may involve some waiting time between the time your flight lands and the time you arrive at the ship or hotel. All guests making their own airfare arrangements are solely responsible for arranging their transportation to/from the airport. Individual airport transfers can be purchased for those guests who are scheduled to arrive/depart on our itinerary dates, please ask for details. GENERAL PROVISIONS Cruise and Cruise & Land Itineraries: Carrier seeks to provide services as published or stated in the final documents. But deviations to planned cruise, cruise & land itinerary or any other aspects of the travel may occur. If conditions make cruise routes unsafe for navigation or in other respects, or raise sufficient doubt about safety, Carrier reserves the right to modify or provide alternate services. These may include, but are not limited to, providing accommodation on the docked ship and/or substituting ground arrangements. An effort will be made to try to arrange elements of the cruise and cruise tour similar to those originally planned, but the level of similarity may vary. Except as otherwise provided in your Passenger Ticket Contract, such changes will not entitle you to any credit or a refund. Cruise, cruise & land routes, and all other aspects of the cruise and travel are subject to change with or without notice. Hotel Accommodations: We will seek to use hotels listed (if any) on your confirmation. Changes may be necessary, therefore use of such hotels is not assured. An effort will be made to substitute similar hotels, but the level of similarity may vary. Standard policy for hotels is to have rooms available for check-in no earlier than 3:00 p.m. Subject to the discretion of the hotel, triple-occupancy hotel accommodations may involve the use of hotel rooms with just two beds. Only those guests who have elected to take our Cruise & Land program on the brochure itinerary dates will receive transfers between the hotel(s) and the ship. Cancellation: Carrier reserves the right to cancel, change or postpone any cruise departure date and itinerary. In the event of a complete cancellation of a departure by Carrier, we will refund monies paid for the cruise or cruise & land package to those participants who have not previously cancelled. Personal Changes: Except as otherwise provided in your Passenger Ticket Contract, deviation from the published itinerary for any reason will not entitle participant to any reduction in charge. Participant will bear a full charge for any unused services. Child Policy: All guests under the age of 18 are to be in a cabin with an adult, and must remain supervised at all times, and their safety is the responsibility of the accompanying adult(s). Children between the ages of 4-10 at the time of embarkation may share a cabin with 2 adults provided the child is able to share the bed with the adults – no additional bed will be provided. Please be

aware that balcony cabins of any kind may be unsafe for small children if left unsupervised. Children 4-7 years old are not recommended on any program; and on our Africa program, due to safety precautions, there is a minimum age limit of 12 years old, unless otherwise agreed upon by AmaWaterways. AmaWaterways does not provide child-specific programs or child-minding facilities. Disabled Participants: Handicapped facilities are not available on board or in many places visited on the cruises and cruise tours we offer. If you (participant) have a disability and reasonable accommodation may enable you to use the services, please let us know how you believe we can help. Participant must inform us in writing, at or immediately after making the reservation, but in any event as early as possible, of any mobility impairment or other condition, whether physical, emotional or mental, which may require accommodation or use of an assistive device during the travel. A reasonable effort will be made to accommodate special needs, but we are not responsible for denial of service by carriers, hotels, or other independent suppliers. A participant, who, due to impairment, is not self-sufficient, may be required to travel with a companion who shall take responsibility for assistance needed during travel and in case of emergency. An individual with a disability that would result in a direct threat to the health and safety of others or to that individual may be excluded, if it is determined there is a significant risk that cannot be eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level by reasonable accommodations, policies, practices, procedures assistive devices or services. If participant fails to timely inform us of any impairment or condition, and it is determined based on information that participant should have provided that participation poses a safety risk to participant or direct health or safety threat to others, participant may be excluded from parts or all of the travel. We shall have no liability to participant relating to any condition, treatment, failure to inform us of an impairment, or resulting exclusion. Pregnancy: For the safety of parent and child, and depending on various circumstances, passengers who are at an advanced stage of pregnancy (after 5 months) may be subject to restrictions or exclusion concerning their ability to travel and/or board a ship. Please inform us immediately, so we can assess your personal circumstances and possible accommodation. Medical: Medical doctors are not available on any vessel. If medical services are required, efforts to contact local medical providers will be made. A participant requiring such assistance is solely responsible for all related charges. We will not be responsible or liable for sufficiency of our efforts to reach medical providers, unavailability, delay, quality or other aspect of any such services. Participant is encouraged at time of booking and well before departure, to review participant’s health and medical conditions and insurance and consult participant’s health care and insurance providers regarding needs and scope of coverage for any incident or need that may occur during travel, and to obtain supplemental health and medical insurance for the travel, as needed. Inoculations and Medical Preparation: All passengers traveling on certain Africa itineraries will require Yellow Fever vaccination. AmaWaterways strongly recommends that all passengers take malaria pills for travel to Africa. Please contact your personal physician or local health department prior to travel for further detailed information and recommended precautionary measures. Smoking: Smoking is only permitted on the ship’s Sun Deck in the designated smoking area. Diet: Special dietary requests must be provided to us at time of reservation. An effort will be made to meet the request, but we cannot assure the request can be accommodated.
