    Your ship - the AmaMagna

    As envisioned by AmaWaterways’ Co-Founder and President Rudi Schreiner, often hailed as the “Godfather of River Cruising,” the AmaMagna is redefining what it means to set sail on the European rivers. Twice the width of a traditional river cruise ship, this innovative vessel offers more space, more luxury, and an entirely new level of comfort. Expect spacious suites ranging from 355 to 710 square feet, each with a full balcony, perfect for taking in the ever-changing scenery.

    Culinary enthusiasts will delight in the dining options aboard the AmaMagna. In addition to the Main Restaurant and The Chef’s Table, the ship introduces two exciting new venues. Jimmy’s, a warm, family-style eatery, is named in honor of late Co-Owner Jimmy Murphy, while the Al Fresco Restaurant features retractable windows, offering an al fresco dining experience with stunning views.

    For those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation, the AmaMagna has plenty to offer. The sun-deck pool and whirlpool provide the perfect place to unwind while soaking up the landscape. The Zen Wellness Studio is another standout, featuring a state-of-the-art fitness center, two massage rooms, and a fresh juice bar—ideal for those looking to stay energized while on the move. This river cruise experience promises to be nothing short of extraordinary.

    • Main Restaurant

      A refined, full-service restaurant offering à la carte dinners with regional and international cuisine. Enjoy show-kitchen breakfasts and lunches, and savor elegant Chaîne des Rôtisseurs–themed evenings celebrating culinary artistry.

    • Chef’s Table

      An intimate glass-walled space where a multi-course tasting menu is prepared live by the chef. Thoughtfully paired wines and river views make this an unforgettable, reservation-only experience—at no extra cost.

       

    • Jimmy's Restaurant

      A warm tribute to AmaWaterways co-founder Jimmy Murphy, Jimmy’s offers a cozy, communal dining experience in a beautifully rustic setting. With its long wooden tables and soothing green tones, the space feels both elegant and inviting. Dinner is served family-style, based on the evening’s selections from the Main Restaurant—though here, the choices are made for you. Generous platters of appetizers and salads arrive first, followed by both a meat and a fish entrée, and a single dessert to end the meal. Dishes are meant to be shared, passed around the table just like at a family gathering.

    • The Al Fresco Restaurant

      Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, The Al Fresco Restaurant offers a more relaxed dining option aboard the ship. While the breakfast and lunch menus are more streamlined compared to the Main Restaurant, the setting more than makes up for it—panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows at the ship’s bow create a bright, airy ambiance that’s hard to beat.

    • Zen Wellness Studio

      A sanctuary of rejuvenation, Zen Wellness Studio brings together modern luxury and holistic care. This spacious retreat features a cutting-edge fitness center for energizing workouts, alongside a sleek hair and nail salon for head-to-toe pampering. After your session or treatment, unwind with a revitalizing drink from the juice bar—perfectly crafted to nourish both body and mind.

    • Massage Rooms

      Tucked at the rear of the Violin Deck, the ship’s tranquil wellness suite offers massage services and a full-service hair salon—perfect for a little indulgence after a day of exploring.

    • Pool / Whirlpool

      Unwind in the Sun Deck’s inviting pool or soothing whirlpool as the world glides by—think storybook castles, charming villages, and sweeping landscapes unfolding in every direction. Whether you’re taking a dip to cool off or soaking in the warmth with a drink in hand, the panoramic views make every moment feel effortlessly serene.

    • Pickleball Court

      A standout feature on the Sun Deck, the brand-new full-size pickleball court brings a burst of energy to life onboard. Perfect for active guests looking to stay on the move, it’s a fun and social way to enjoy the open air—complete with scenic river views as your backdrop.

    • Bicycle Fleet

      AmaMagna carries a full fleet of complimentary bicycles, inviting guests to explore charming riverside towns and villages at their own pace—or join guided cycling tours curated by local experts.

    • Walking Track

      Take in the fresh river air with laps on the Sun Deck walking track—an invigorating way to start the day or unwind before dinner.

    • Cultural Performances

      Evenings onboard come alive with authentic local entertainment—from traditional folk dancers and classical quartets to gypsy violinists and operatic performances—bringing Europe’s heritage directly to your lounge seat.

    • Live Music

      The Main Lounge hosts nightly live music, offering everything from soft piano and jazz to regional sounds. It’s the perfect backdrop for a pre-dinner cocktail or a relaxed nightcap with fellow travelers.

    • Shore Excursions

      Curated daily excursions—always included—range from immersive city tours and historic site visits to wine tastings and culinary walks. Multiple activity levels ensure every guest enjoys Europe their own way.

    • Guided Walks
