Gratuities
Tips and service charges are included in the price.
Entertainment
Evenings can be as relaxed or up-tempo as you like on board TUI Maya – watch live music at Observatory, or nurse a cocktail at Club Lounge.
Observatory
This lounge takes pride of place at the heart of our ships. As with all our venues, you can expect widescreen windows for admiring the panoramic views. You can get an even better look from the outdoor terrace, though – it’s a sheltered spot, kitted out with tables and chairs. It’s happy hour here every evening, with discounted drinks and complimentary canapés. After dark, Observatory hosts the nightly entertainment, where the entertainment team perform West End hits, pop classics and rock and roll anthems. Interactive quizzes, local guest acts and silent discos are all on the cards here, too.
Club Lounge
Coffee and cocktails are the cornerstones of this bar. Plush purple chairs, brass fittings and mirrored tables set a sophisticated scene. By day, you can sip a coffee* while taking in the views. At night, you can clink pre-dinner cocktails* in front of a roaring digital fireplace, before heading to one of the restaurants. Return after dinner if you fancy a quiet bar for after-dark drinks.
Top Deck
The views from the top deck are worth swooning over, but that’s not all it’s good for. It’s split into zones, with different areas for relaxation and activities. Plus, when you want to switch up the pace, there’s an area for activities, where deck games like minigolf, cornhole and shuffleboard take place. There’s a giant Connect 4 up here, too. You can check the full activity schedule once you’re onboard.
Atrium
The Atrium is the main hub of our ships. It’s where you’ll find the Reception desk, as well as the River Cruise Experience Manager, who can help with any questions and shore experience bookings. You can also retreat to the library, play board games, or stock up on souvenirs from the onboard shop. Outside of mealtimes, you can grab a complimentary tea or coffee from the self-service station here.
Enrichment
Whether you want to book your shore experiences through us or explore our ports of call at your own pace, a TUI River Cruises sailing has the best of both worlds.
Sightsee At Leisure
If exploring at your own pace sounds more your cup of tea, our tickets and attractions experiences are perfect. You can set off on your own and join in with things like food tasting tours, or see the destination on hop-on-and-off buses. If you’d rather just bag yourself a spot in a local café and watch the world go by, that’s great, too – our cruises allow for as much sightseeing as you like.
If you want to find out everything you need to know about the ports we visit, don’t miss our Cruise Experience Manager’s daily port talks. They’ll also tell you about some of the shore experiences available. Also, use the onboard app, Navigate. It’s got port maps on it – perfect for if you want to go off and explore alone.
Dining
TUI Maya has all the hallmarks of a TUI River Cruise, including a pair of restaurants. You can tuck into fresh, seasonal dishes at Verdastro, where the menu changes daily. Or there’s the more casual Bistro next door. There’s a six-course gala dinner on sailings of five nights or more, too. Dining at both of the restaurants is included, since our cruises are on a Full Board Plus basis. It also means you’ll get drinks like tea, coffee, beer and wine with meals.
Verdastro
There’s an elegant green-and-gold colour scheme in our main restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu changes daily, with fresh, seasonal food sourced from local suppliers. For dinner, there’s always a meat, fish, veggie and pasta dish. A buffet station puts on a pile-your-plate-high spread for breakfast. Meanwhile, lunch and dinner are an à la carte affair with waiter service. Seating-wise, you can pick from tables for two, or pull up a chair with friends on a table for four or six.
Bistro
Things are a little more casual in Bistro, our second restaurant. It’s attached at the hip with Verdastro, giving you an extra dining option. Like Verdastro, it’s open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Al Fresco Dining
As well as sunbeds, the top deck’s laid out with tables and chairs. When the weather permits, we’ll put on outdoor events, like barbecues. You can get drinks up here, too.
