AmaWaterways today confirmed it will add a new ship to its European fleet on July 1, 2020: the 156-passenger AmaSiena, which will sail a variety of 7, 10, and 11-night itineraries, visiting iconic cities, historic towns, and spectacular wine regions along the Rhine, Main, Moselle, and Danube rivers. Like its sister ships, AmaMora (2019), AmaLea (2018), and AmaKristina (2017), AmaSiena will feature connecting staterooms, generous personal space, luxurious amenities, and a variety of dining options, including AmaWaterways' regionally inspired cuisine in the main restaurant and a wine-pairing menu at The Chef's Table.
“The popularity of river cruising continues to grow, and with the introduction of AmaSiena, we are pleased to offer more of our branded, personalized luxury river cruises to our customers,” said Rudi Schreiner, president and co-founder of AmaWaterways. “AmaSiena will feature the exceptional cuisine, variety of active shore excursions, world-class service, and, of course, some innovative touches that travelers have come to expect whenever we introduce a new ship.”.
AmaSiena will feature 78 staterooms, most with AmaWaterways' signature twin balconies, offering panoramic views from both a French balcony and an exterior balcony. It also has four suites, six pairs of connecting staterooms, and 12 triple-occupancy staterooms designed for families. Additional amenities include a heated pool with a sundeck and swim-up bar, a fitness center, bicycles, and on-site massage and beauty services. Guests can also enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi and a "Sip & Sail" happy hour.
Kristin Karst, executive vice president and co-founder of the company, commented, “The AmaSiena will offer the perfect combination: incredible food and wine served alongside tours and active adventures in a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. We like to think it will allow guests of all ages to create unforgettable vacation memories.”.
From July 2020, AmaSiena will offer a wide variety of itineraries, among the highlights being the 10-night Rhine & Moselle Delights and the 11-night Rhine & Moselle Fairy Tales between Amsterdam and Basel, allowing guests to explore the Middle Ages with its castles and spectacular vineyards lining the banks of the Moselle River.
AmaWaterways cruises include full board, drinks with meals (including wine and beer), a selection of excursions, and unlimited Wi-Fi.
