What to expect from Amadeus River Cruises

STATEROOMS & SUITES

Rise from your comfortable bed and shine! The light streams through my expansive window as the light bounces across the gentle waves of the river just outside your luxurious stateroom. With the press of a button, your panorama window lowers to let the cool morning breeze in. Before you set off for the day, take a moment to freshen up in your bright and roomy bathroom quarters.

Your contemporary suite or cabin was designed and furnished with love. High-quality beds, bouncy armchairs, plenty of storage, and modern color schemes – all crafted with you in mind.

A CAVALCADE OF FLAVOURS

Enjoy that first sip of freshly brewed, steaming hot coffee as you peruse the morning’s mealtime choices. A dazzling array of delicious breakfast items beckons you as you find your seat in the elegant Panorama-Restaurant. You ponder how much the human stomach can hold as you pass the freshly baked breads, made daily onboard your vessel.

After settling in, make your way to the breakfast buffet – where market-fresh fruits and vegetables, delicious dairy products, crisp whole grain pastries, plus selected coffee and tea specialties, await you!

Can you smell the tantalising aromas wafting from our kitchen? We expertly prepare every dish from the finest and freshest of ingredients. At lunchtime, we’re serving up culinary delights inspired by the regions you’ll cruise through.
