Description
Debuting on the upper Danube River in late spring 2026, our 24th river cruise ship, the splendid AmaSofia, will boast our signature twin-balcony staterooms, enabling you to enjoy breathtaking views of Austria’s Wachau Valley and Europe’s Old-World capitals, Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna. Stay tuned for more details as they are announced!
Cruise Line
Celebrating 18 years on the river, family-owned and operated AmaWaterways was founded in 2002 by three families; however, our river cruise story began well before that. Co-Founder and President Rudi Schreiner was born in Vienna, at the heart of the Danube. His love of design drew him to architecture, but his even greater love of travel drew him to places far and wide. In 1975, he traveled to South America for a journalism assignment on the Amazon. It was here he designed his first ship, using what he could find to build a raft that would take him up and down the river during the next 7 months. Soon thereafter, he started working in travel, creating unique tour experiences in Europe.
