- RRRodolfo· October 15th, 2018We loved the overall itinerary, initial start times & pace of tours. The staff was awesome and special thanks to Monika. We loved all of the destinations and the options for the tours. We've taken around 10 cruises on the big ships and this was our first river cruise and I expected the food to be as good or better than the big cruises. Unfortunately, this is where Amawaters fell short. The food was a disappointment for us and there weren't too many options. On a couple of occasions the dinner was below average.Show moreTrip date: October 2018
- DSDouglas· October 3rd, 2018The cruise was relaxing. We had the opportunity to see new places, learn about different cultures, meet many interesting people, taste delicious food without the worry of planning everything for ourselves. Very enjoyable.Show moreTrip date: September 2018

Katie
Asked on December 2nd, 2022What is the dress code for dinner and tours
AmaWaterwaysOperator•Written December 2022Comfortable "Country Club Casual" is the recommended attire for daytime, and to pack something a little dressier for the Captain's night/Farewell Dinner – similar to how one would dress to dine at a 5-star restaurant. Comfortable shoes are recommended for excursions and workout clothing if you plan to take part in any wellness activities, active tours or use the onboard gym.
