An AmaWaterways wine cruise is designed to provide travelers with immersive experiences related to the regions they are visiting. As with our standard river cruises, guests have the opportunity to join tours and excursions that highlight the sights in each port of call. In addition to these city tours, there are a number of wine-related activities that reveal more about Europe's famed wine regions, local epicurean traditions, winemaking, and of course wine tastings.*
Each cruise is hosted by a qualified wine expert, who usually brings hand-selected wines on board that are served during meals and at tastings. Some wines come from the expert's own winery and other varieties are sourced from local wineries located along the cruise itinerary. The wine host will recommend food and wine pairings, lead discussions and hold tastings during your cruise.*
Guests enjoy a number of tours at local vineyards and wineries, where vintners and growers will not only walk you through the winemaking process - they will give you a tast of their special varieties, too. These authentic encounters add to the rich tapestry of local culture, making for memorable experiences for wine enthusiasts and dabblers alike. Your taste buds are in for even more excitement in our sophisticated dining venues on board, where our expert chefs pair fine wines and award-winning cuisine for the ultimate epicurean experience. You will also enjoy sumptuous dining events, where each course is served with a wine pairing hand selected by your host.*
