Our Excursions and Packages

Every cruise with AMADEUS is designed to ensure you experience the best of the countries and regions you visit, with extended stays at each port along your itinerary. Our excursion programs let you choose how deeply you want to experience each destination.

Our Excursion Categories

Embrace the Freedom to Choose with AMADEUS

Now is the time to plan, wander, and discover. With countless excursions on an AMADEUS river cruise, you can choose how to spend your time. From guided walking tours, interactive discoveries, to traditional sightseeing, we offer a wide range of possibilities for travelers with varying interests and for all energy and fitness levels. Let your travels reflect your preferences, passions and dreams.

Entertainment on Board

Our onboard ship experience is as lively and captivating as your time on shore! Varied folklore shows, insightful and intriguing lectures, regional themed evenings, culinary demonstrations and live music events are just some of the entertainments awaiting our passengers.

Life On Board

A river cruise may not be the fastest way to explore Europe, but it is certainly the most beautiful! Prepare to be spoiled by our renowned Austrian hospitality. Our goal is to do our best to ensure that you enjoy an unforgettable and stress-free stay on board our Amadeus ships.

Set your spirit free and unwind while doing exactly as you please! Discover magical, dreamy river landscapes and vibrant world cities, get to know new countries and cultures on our interesting land excursions, or simply relax on the Sun Deck and enjoy the magnificent view of Europe’s most beautiful rivers!

Custom-designed boutique ships

A floating luxury hotel that leaves no wish unfulfilled; wide panoramic windows, spacious magnificence and timeless elegance – we want you to feel good with us in every possible way. Our top priority in designing our luxurious fleet of ships is to offer you inspiring enjoyment and uncompromising comfort.

Cordial, personal, attentive: our onboard service

We have almost turned our distinctive Austrian hospitality, which underpins all our cruises, into an exclusive trademark. Allow yourself to be thoroughly spoilt by our attentive staff members, who will do their best to serve you with what you want before you’ve even asked for it!

Maritime elegance from bow to stern

Our long-standing company not only manages its own ships, but is also responsible for the planning and building of the ships, which are consequently conceived from the start with a perfect mix of modern elegance and luxurious comfort. This is particularly evident in the public spaces such as the airy Panorama Restaurant, the generous and inviting bar and the pleasant, relaxing Amadeus Club with its library.

Public Areas on Board

Because our main priority is to help you relax, there are several places on board where you can let your spirit roam free. These include the spacious Sun deck with Lido-Bar, the Panorama-Bar and Lounge, the cosy AMADEUS-Club, as well as fitness and wellness facilities. On our Silver series vessels, there is also the “River Terrace”, a wind-protected outside lounge area.

Exercise and relaxation, variety and calm. It is precisely these alternations that characterise each day you spend on an Amadeus cruise.

So you can, if you like, start the morning with a visit to the fitness studio or join an exercise class on the sun deck. But if you would prefer to relax completely, you can treat yourself to a massage or make an appointment with the hairdresser.

You might also like to lounge on the sun deck with a good book, appreciating the scenery floating slowly by, or get to chatting to other passengers over coffee and cakes. Whatever you decide to do, Amadeus life offers a perfect mixture of inspiring entertainment and beneficial relaxation.

Due to the nature of our cruise itineraries, Amadeus vessels do not maintain facilities or services for children. On all cruises minors under the age of 18 must be accompanied and share a cabin with a parent, legal guardian or other responsible adult over the age of 21. We regret that we cannot accommodate children under 8 years of age, and we reserve the right to limit the number of minors under the age of 18 years on board.
