Amasonata Overview

Designed with soft colors, and ideal for relaxation, AmaSonata is one of the best ways to cruise down the rivers of Europe. Featured in most staterooms on board are AmaWaterways' twin balconies, which gives passengers the option of a French or traditional balcony by simply equipping rooms with both options. This allows guests to enjoy the scenic banks from the comfort of their luxurious stateroom. The luxury continues with the white table cloths and 5-star cuisine at The Chef's Table, where an open kitchen puts you in the middle of the action while your meal is prepared. For more information on AmaWaterways' AmaSonata, please call The Cruise Web today at 1-800-377-9383 and speak with one of our expert consultants!

• Passenger Capacity: 162 (double occupancy)
• Year Built: 2014

• Twin Balconies Many staterooms aboard AmaSonata feature twin balconies, allowing guests the option of stepping outside or enjoying the scenery from inside their stateroom.  

• Sun Deck Pool Enjoy the heated pool and swim-up bar on the Sun Deck, where you can relax as the scenic riverbanks of Europe float past.  

• Walking Track Head up to the Sun Deck to work out, or take an after-dinner stroll to catch the sunset.  

• Onboard Bicycles AmaWaterways is dedicated to immersing guests in their destination, so AmaSonata is equipped with a full fleet of bicycles, which guests are encouraged to use in port (complimentary).  

• Main Lounge Kick back after a long day of biking through your destination and enjoy a drink, good company and the sounds of a baby grand piano.

Entertainment, Activities & Facilities

AmaSonata Facilities

River cruises generally lend themselves to those who love having the chance to explore multiple destinations in one holiday. As such, many of the activities and entertainment during the day will take place ashore, whether you choose to participate in a small-group shore excursion or explore independently. The outings on an AmaSonata cruise range from everything to walking/bicycle tours to wine tasting and cultural events such as musical recitals, all of which ensure you will get the most out of your time away.

Outside of the time spent ashore, you will have the opportunity to enjoy AmaSonata facilities. The ship features a sun deck with a swim-up bar, boutiques and a fitness centre, while the ship’s spa is ideal should you wish to enjoy a spot of pampering during your holiday.

In the evening, most guests will enjoy the surroundings of the elegant main lounge, where occasional musical performances provide a pleasing backdrop to camaraderie among guests. Alternatively, AmaSonata’s Observation Lounge provides the perfect vantage point for sunset views of the nearby scenery and landscapes.

Other facilities on AmaSonata include:

• Complimentary bicycle fleet
• Main lobby with reception desk
• Walking track (on Sun Deck)

Embark on the AmaSonata Cruise: A World of Exciting Possibilities

AmaWaterways is renowned for its advanced design and active shore experiences, which is further demonstrated in its vessel, AmaSonata. With 81 cabins, most of which feature two balconies - one sliding door and an outside balcony, and non-balcony cabins which are roomy and attractive - the ship provides plenty of space and comfort. Onboard announcements are kept minimal, while shore excursions, bike hire, wine with lunch and dinner, and Wi-Fi are all included in the cruise price. To cater for the more active cruisers, the line offers strenuous hikes and cycling excursions, as well as three levels of physical exertion for group tours. Food is excellent and AmaWaterways holds a membership in the Confrerie de la Chaine de Rotisseurs gastronomic society. Cabin and dining room service is friendly and attentive. ID scanning is in place when entering and leaving the vessel, however, it is not a failsafe system.

ONBOARD EXPERIENCE

AmaWaterways River Cruises

With AmaWaterways, you have the option of exploring Europe's amazing sights like the locals do. AmaWaterways was the first river cruise line to carry an entire fleet of complimentary bicycles on board, so you can experience biking alongside enchanting riverside pathways and in city centers. Whether you feel like joining one of their exclusive guided bike tours, or want to go discover on your own, there are many ways for you to explore on two wheels during your cruise.

The beauty of Europe doesn't just lie in its architecture and landmarks & there are also breathtaking things to be seen when you venture out into nature. That's why AmaWaterways designed special guided hikes that will take you a bit off the beaten path in some very beautiful destinations like the Wachau Valley. These unique, active tour options are included in the cruise fare so that you have more choices when it comes to how you prefer to explore.

The AmaWaterways Difference

A proactive, personalized approach to exceeding expectations is a hallmark of the AmaWaterways experience.

All onboard dining, as well as unlimited wine and beer with lunch and dinner, is included so you can indulge whenever and however you’d like.

Luxurious Onboard Amenities

With fewer guests on board, AmaWaterways have space for luxurious amenities. Relax with a massage after a day of exploring, stay in shape with the fitness room and watch castles go by while enjoying a cocktail and taking a dip in the sun deck pool with a swim-up bar.

While on your cruise, you’ll want to share the pictures you take of everything you see and do. And, you also want to stay in touch with your friends and family back home. That’s why free internet access and Wi-Fi is provided when you’re aboard. Your stateroom also has a computer that you can use in case you didn’t bring your mobile device, or just want to sit down at a desk to surf the web.

River Cruise on Luxurious Radisson Boat

• Description
• Choose date

Equipped with ice-breaking technology, these huge fancy yachts are the only river cruisers running all year around. The round trip journey takes two and a half hours and floats past all the big sights like the White House, Novodevichy monastery and the Kremlin. There’s a large open air observation deck up top, while the main body of the ship houses a restaurant with a dance floor for a romantic post dinner dance. For a particularly romantic experience take one of the evening boats and admire the bright lights of the city skyline at night.

The most relaxing and picturesque tour that Moscow can offer: a great way to see the city center and its main attractions. This is a perfect alternative to exploring the city by car, if you only have time to do sightseeing during weekday rush hours.

Your English-speaking guide is eager to share every bit of their knowledge about the surrounding landscape, the architecture and historical details.

We conduct Moscow river tour on Radisson Flotilla boats all year around!  It’s warm inside during winter months, while there’s air conditioning during hot summer days. You may also treat yourself to drinks, lunch or dinner on board (drinks and food are not included in tour price).
