We will begin our Journey in Budapest, during which you will immerse yourself in some of the Hungarian capital’s lesser-known heritage and historic sites. After embarking your ship, discover the luxury and beauty of river cruising as you glide through the scenic Wachau Valley, a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

Throughout your journey you will visit the river’s legendary capitals: Bratislava and Vienna – where AmaWaterways’ Co-Founder Rudi Schreiner, the visionary “Godfather of River Cruising,” was born and raised. Encounter fascinating architecture from Melk’s golden-hued Benedictine abbey to Vienna’s magnificent Schönbrunn Palace. Plus, followThe Sound of Music through sprawling Salzburg, the incomparable birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Sail along Alaska’s wild coastline where emerald forests meet towering blue ice. Wake up to snow-capped peaks outside your window, watch glaciers crack and thunder into the sea, and scan the shoreline for whales, bears, and bald eagles. Between cozy time on board and awe-filled days in port, this cruise feels less like a vacation and more like stepping into a nature documentary where you’re the one in the front row.

Each day brings a new “wow” moment: drifting past walls of blue ice on a glacier day cruise, feeling the chill in the air as you glide through misty fjords, and watching the sunset stretch across the mountains in shades of gold and pink. On board, you’ll savor fresh cuisine, hot coffee, and warm company as you share stories from the day’s adventures. It’s the kind of trip that slows your mind, fills your camera roll, and leaves you quietly thinking, “I can’t believe I got to see that.”
