Smithsonian Journeys and AmaWaterways

River Cruising

Discover a Rewarding New Way to River Cruise

Introducing Our Alliance with AmaWaterways

We invite you to join us on a new kind of river cruise that's uniquely Smithsonian. We have collaborated with AmaWaterways, an acclaimed leader in river cruising, plying the waterways of Europe and beyond for more than two decades. Our new alliance offers enriching programs built on a love of discovering other cultures and places. On each of these exciting, new departures, you'll travel with two Smithsonian Journeys Experts who share their insights through lectures onboard and informally over meals, and on tour. In addition, we've worked together with AmaWaterways to create unique excursions and activities designed with Smithsonian Journeys travelers in mind, offered exclusively for these departures.

Every Smithsonian Journeys / AmaWaterways Departure Includes:

• Specially Curated Tours: Exclusively designed for Smithsonian Journeys
• Enriching Onboard Lectures: Hosted by two Smithsonian Journeys Experts
• Gourmet Dining: Fine dining at every meal, plus a multi-course tasting at The Chef’s Table
• Personalized Service: Dedicated AmaWaterways Cruise Manager who takes care of you throughout your journey
• Seamless Travel: Airport transfers and portage service to and from the ship on cruise embarkation and disembarkation days (Terms apply; ask for details)
