WELCOME Dear Golfers, Like many of you, when I hit my first pure shot, I was hooked on the greatest game ever. I wanted to play the best courses that I could and develop my game as far as I could. Over the years I have been privileged to play all over the world, in China, Thailand, India, USA, the UK and in Europe. Up until now it was never possible to play multiple courses in different countries in one trip because of the logistics involved, yet there were still so many beautiful courses that were on my list to play. Searching for an answer of how to create the ultimate golf holiday led me to partner up with the most innovative river cruise company in the world, AmaWaterways. It is a marriage made in heaven, combining the best golf courses with the best river cruises in Europe and Asia. I have based the selection criteria on the same aspects that I would want for my own holiday, selecting golf courses that have hosted a professional tour event or has qualified as a leading golf course. Both the stringent quality of the courses as well as the guest experience are paramount to selecting the venues. All of the courses have been tested by LGT Golf and I am continuously testing and visiting new venues for future programs. The AmaWaterways Ships have been rated as the best on Europe’s Rivers, and they are certainly worth every rating. The staff, the food and the experience is simply excellent, relaxing and fun. I recommend taking a stateroom with a twin Balcony to get the most out of the experience. Gourmet food and wine await your culinary delight on these amazing ships

where we don’t need to deal with the mundane aspects of organising tee times, transportation, club cleaning and so on. So thats why we created the LGT Golf concierge which forms an integral part of the package. We take care of all those aspects for you. All you need to do is show up and enjoy spectacular golf, eat gourmet food and have a fantastic vacation. Our team will pick you up from the Hotel at your starting point, be it in Budapest or Prague, and then follow you to each destination, each time picking you up and delivering you back to the ship so that your golfing holiday is seamless. Everything will have been arranged in advance for you – your tee time, practice balls for your warm up and your pull trolleys. After your round, you will enjoy lunch in the clubhouse while your clubs are cleaned by our staff. We then return you to your luxury river cruise ship, even if it has moved on to its next stop. LGT Golf is also creating a River Cruise Order of Merit. Every round counts and at the end of the year the best 3 scores in the men’s and women’s division will receive prizes, including a free golf tour for the following season. Participation is of course purely voluntary.

HARTL RESORTS

BECKENBAUER COURSE Bad Griesbach, Germany Host of the Porsche European Open

Regal golfing pleasure on lush greens and perfect fairways – this championship course, created by former Masters champion Bernhard Langer, seems to be one with the meadow landscape surrounding the small river Rott and was awarded a “world class” rating within one year of opening. The 18 holes in Penning, right beside the Audi Golf Course, do indeed pack a punch. They don’t hold back when it comes to challenges, but also offer sufficient opportunities for some serious success. What makes this golf course so special is the quality of the hand-mown greens and fairways, which remain tip-top even during the summer thanks to a double-row irrigation season.

THE EUROPEAN TOUR GOLF TOUR PANNONIA COUNTRY CLUB Budapest, Hungary Host of the Hungarian Open

The 18-hole golf course of Pannonia Golf & Country Club was designed by the famous Austrian course designer Hans G. Erhardt. The golf course lies in a valley so the varied forms of its fairways provide a great golf experience. Lakes come into play at 8 holes and pin placements may also present a challenge at the hilly greens. With 6 different tee-boxes, both beginners and advanced players can get a true and fair idea of their golf skills. The natural environment and the beautiful, carefully maintained course inspires golf players to hit great shots. Erhardt also designed the Golf course Fontana, host of the Austrian Open for many years and believes that Pannonia is still the best course in Hungary.

Alternate golf courses Occasionally on of our Golf courses will be hosting a European Tour event, will be closed for maintenance, or could be booked out for a corporate day. Should that be the case we have selected some other courses to be played as an alternative. The courses all meet the same stringent selection criteria as our main courses, and are also beautiful courses to play.

THE EXOTIC MEKONG GOLF TOUR The Bluffs at Ho Tranh Championship Course Vung Tau, Vietnam

The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip was designed to capture the true essence of links-style golf. Set on the coastline - as almost all great links courses are - The Bluffs is routed over and around towering sand dunes, which have been shaped over thousands of years by the elements. The wind plays a major role in the experience here; it’s always strong, and its prevailing direction differs depending on the time of year. “This is one of only two pieces of land of this quality and character I have ever been given to work with - the other being Doonbeg in Ireland,” Norman said. “ I’m a firm believer in using what Mother Nature gives us on a particular site. This one has it all. The experience of playing true links golf among the dunes of southern Vietnam and having dramatic ocean views throughout your round will make The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip one of the most unique golf experiences in the world.”

Alternate golf courses Occasionally on of our Golf courses will be hosting an event, will be closed for maintenance, or could be booked out for a corporate day.

About AmaWaterways AmaWaterways´ ships are inspired by luxury yachts and designed specifically to maximize every aspect of our guests’ experience. You will notice the difference the minute you step on board and are welcomed in the beautiful lobby. From then on, you will be treated to an array of unique and luxurious features as you journey along in your floating hotel. Relax and delight in stunning views in our spacious staterooms, many of which feature twin balconies – a French balcony and an outside balcony. Enjoy exclusive amenities like massage services, a fitness room and a pool while on board. Indulge in award-winning cuisine at a variety of dining venues, including The Chef’s Table specialty restaurant – an experience you won’t find elsewhere. Berlitz rated AmaWaterways ships the highest in its inaugural guide to river cruising in Europe. Known for its international travel and language expertise, Berlitz has published cruise guides for 30 years. Author Douglas Ward, a leading authority on cruising, has over 40 years of experience and has spent more than 6,000 days on board covering more than 1,000 voyages. We are delighted that, following the release of the second Berlitz Guide to River Cruising, the AmaWaterways vessels have retained their place as the recognised leader within amongst the fleets of Europe with the top 11 ships again all belonging to AmaWaterways. Out of 310 river cruise vessels, Ama consistently rank the best based on accommodations, dining, service and many other onboard features.

“AmaWaterways has helped to redefine European river cruising.” – DOUGLAS WARD, BERLITZ RIVER CRUISING IN EUROPE

MAIN LOBBY 30

MAIN LOUNGE AND BAR

LIBRARY


The AmaWaterways Story AmaWaterways was founded in 2002 by three families, but our river cruise story began well before that. President Rudi Schreiner was born in Vienna, at the heart of the Danube. His love of design drew him to architecture, but his even greater love of travel drew him to places far and wide. When the Rhine-Main-Danube canal was built in 1992, Rudi realized the potential for touring as many as 13 European countries by river. He started the North American operations for many of today’s major river cruise companies, developing itineraries and ships that would become the templates for what we know river cruising to be today. After years of success as a driving force in the industry, Rudi decided to start his own venture – that’s when he teamed up with Kristin Karst and Jimmy Murphy to start AmaWaterways.

AMAWATERWAYS EXPANDING FLEET “Each year, we build ships with new features and designs. We also renovate and enhance our existing fleet to ensure that it is up-to-date.” THE TRADITION CONTINUES

AND SO DOES THE INNOVATION

Here’s some great news for our guests – we have new ships just like the AmaPrima, which was ranked the #1 ship in the world, that have joined our fleet since the Berlitz guide was published. These include the AmaSerena, AmaSonata, AmaStella, AmaViola, AmaKristina and AmaLea. These new vessels cruise a number of rivers on a variety of itineraries, so you have even more opportunities to sail on the best ships.

All of us at AmaWaterways are delighted by the praise lavished on our ships. We’re happy with #1, but we’re also always working to make #1 even better. On AmaStella, AmaViola, AmaKristina and AmaLea, we’ve introduced staterooms with connecting doors as well as triple accommodations, making it easier for group and family travel. These vessels also feature more twin balconies and a larger salon, fitness room and massage area.

2015

Editors’ Picks

In 2002, it was Rudi, Kristin and Jimmy working to make their dream of AmaWaterways come true. Now, just 14 years later, AmaWaterways is an award-winning cruise line whose fleet will number 21 ships in 2017. Through it all, we have remained family owned and operated, and the owners continue to have a hands-on approach to management. Rudi directly oversees the design and construction of new ships every year, while Kristin and Gary consistently lend their belief in building strong personal relationships and providing exceptional customer service.

MORE ROOM, BETTER VIEWS Every feature in an AmaWaterways stateroom was thoughtfully conceived with the comfort of our guests in mind. Our staterooms start at 160 square feet, and suites can be as large as 350 square feet, giving you more space to sit back and relax in between meals and explorations. Artfully crafted to a first-class standard, each room is equipped with innovative designs, plush bedding, multi-jet showerheads, and many other special touches that make you feel like you’re getting the royal treatment. Most of our staterooms have a balcony — or two — so you can enjoy stunning views of the magnificent sights along the river’s edge. Your stateroom was designed to ensure that you travel in luxury from one stunning destination to the next. Set the climate control to your preference and slip into a terrycloth bathrobe as you unwind. Open your French or outside balcony (or both) and feel the soothing breeze come in off the river. Turn on our Entertainment on Demand system and put on a newly released movie, or watch some TV. Switch your flat-screen monitor into computer mode and hop on the internet to post your adventures on Facebook or email friends and loved ones back home. Use the desk to write a special note on one of our postcards — we’ll mail it back for you free of charge. Your spacious stateroom is yours to relax in and enjoy as you see fit. On some of our twin-balcony ships, you’ll now find staterooms with connecting doors, as well as triple accommodations. Please ask for details.

A PALATE-PLEASING VOYAGE AmaWaterways’ expert chefs craft menus that feature exquisite, locally-inspired cuisine as well as traditional, Western offerings. At breakfast, sip sparkling wine as you partake of the buffet and fresh pastries, or opt for something made-to-order from the menu. Stop by the Main Lounge for a light lunch, or head to the restaurant for full menu service and high-quality regional wine or beer. Dinner is a delectable, multi-course affair with wine recommendations that accompany visually stunning, delicious dishes. Try local favorites – like goulash while cruising through Hungary, bratwurst and sauerkraut after returning to the ship from Vienna, or Camembert cheese while on the Seine – or something more familiar, like a sandwich. No matter what your preference, your taste buds are sure to be impressed. Our Executive Chef, Primus Perchtold, is the winner of three gold medals at the European Championship of Culinary Art and oversees the menus aboard every cruise in Europe. You will find one of his recipes on your pillow each night, just in case you want to recreate his culinary magic at home.

YOUR CHOICE OF DINING

THE DRINKS ARE ON US

Head to the Main Restaurant or The Chef’s Table to savor award-winning cuisine. Stop by the Main Lounge for tapas between meals. More places to dine means fewer guests in each venue, allowing for more personalized service and more space.

You will enjoy complimentary, unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks during lunch and dinner (as well as sparkling wine and fresh-squeezed juices during breakfast). We hand pick only the highest quality wines and pair them with our cuisine.

Seating at most 28 guests, it is an intimate, private venue secluded from the rest of the ship. With just you and a handful of other people, this is a fantastic atmosphere for meeting fellow travelers and making new friends over an exceptional dinner. There is no additional cost to dine at The Chef’s Table – all you have to do is make a reservation.

“The food and service is what most passengers remember after their cruise, because this company spends more on food and wine than most. This is for anyone seeking excellence.” – DOUGLAS WARD, BERLITZ RIVER CRUISING IN EUROPE

Deposit & Final Payment: To make a reservation, please contact LGT Golf on bookings@lgtgolf.com or +44(020)80681256 A deposit of £270 per person for non golfers and £540 for golfers is required at time of booking. In addition to the cruise deposit, if air is purchased, LGT Golf requires the full nonrefundable air payment at time of booking. Hotel Extra Nights require a non-refundable deposit of £40 per stateroom at the time of confirmation of hotel availability. Final payment is due no later than 100 days prior to departure; non-payment may result in the reservation being cancelled. Pricing: Unless indicated otherwise, all brochure prices are per person in £ Sterling, based on double occupancy of a stateroom, or standard hotel room. Single rates are available for cruise at a supplement of 50%, except for suites which are 100%. Pricing is accurate at time of printing and expected to be in effect at the time of departure but maybe subject to surcharge or reduction for the following items: transportation costs, including the cost of fuel; dues, taxes, or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports; government action such as increases in VAT or any other government imposed increases; or currency exchange rate fluctuations. Only amounts in excess of 2% of the holiday price excluding insurance premiums and any amendment charges will lead to a surcharge or reduction; any surcharge levied will include an amount to cover agent’s commission. If this means paying more than 10% above the holiday price quoted at time of booking, you will be entitled to cancel the holiday with a full refund of all money paid (not including any premium paid for holiday insurance and amendment charges). Such a cancellation must be made within 14 days of the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice. Failure to pay a surcharge within 14 days may be treated as cancellation of the booking by you, and a cancellation charge of the amount shown under “Cancellation Charges” applicable on the date of LGT Golf’s decision to cancel will be made. Cancellation Charges are dependent on the date of booking and are shown below. No surcharge or reduction will be made less than 30 days before the date of commencement of the holiday but bookings received within this period may be charged at the published price plus any surcharge arising up to the date of that booking. Airfares and air taxes quoted on your invoice or by a reservation agent are only guaranteed once full payment is received by LGT Golf. A charge of 2% apply to payments by credit card. Not Included In The Price: Passports/visas, excess baggage fees; vaccinations; gratuities on cruise ships; laundry, beverages and food not on the regular table d’hôte menu; optional excursions; all other items of a personal nature; travel, health, personal items or accident protection plans. These items are paid locally. Governmental or local taxes/ fees, airport taxes and fees and fuel surcharges not included in the price will be charged by invoice. Cancellation Charges: In the unfortunate event that you cannot travel and you need to cancel, please notify LGT Golf in writing. No cancellation can be taken without written notification. Cancellations are effective from the date of receipt of the written notification. If LGT Golf has already issued final documentation that includes air tickets, the unused air tickets must be returned to LGT Golf before they can be cancelled. Please note that any name change/ substitution of passenger is treated as a cancellation and any/all applicable cancellation charges will be applied. Cancellation charges are per person and shown below. Passports and Visas: A valid passport is required of all travellers. Passports must be valid three months after the scheduled return date to your home country. All passengers must consult with the appropriate consulates if any visas are needed.

Air tickets are economy class, unless requested otherwise, and are issued under the terms and conditions of the relevant airline(s). Business class air travel is available for purchase at the time of booking; please ask for details. Airlines require that your exact name, as it appears in your passport, be on your air ticket. LGT Golf is not responsible for any issues resulting from an incorrect name on any air ticket issued.

LGT Golf is not responsible for any costs resulting from lost air tickets delays, disruptions or cancelled flights; lost baggage or missed connections. In the event of a lost air ticket, the passenger will need to file a Lost Ticket Application with the carrier.
