AmaWaterways’ more than 70 annual Celebration of Wine River Cruises invite you to immerse yourself in a world where rich flavors flow freely across Europe, allowing you to savor these storied libations on a deeper, more intimate level. Each Celebration of Wine River Cruise is hosted by an enthusiastic wine professional who leads you through tastings and interactive discussions, accompanies you on select shore excursions to vineyards and cellars, and helps curate a special food and wine pairing dinner on board. Guided by their passion and expertise, you’ll delight in discovering one of the world’s most perfect blends: travel, wine and elegant cuisine.
Along your river cruise, you will be doing more than savoring the taste of these impressive wines – you can also enjoy excursions during which you hike through vineyards or delve into their fascinating history that has been interwoven with the regions you are exploring.
