Find your kind of journey

Douro & Bordeaux

AmaWaterways’ wine program includes journeys through the Douro Valley and Bordeaux. Start with the region you want to explore, then look at the visits and tasting program for your date.

Rhine & Moselle

AmaWaterways offers Europe’s Rivers & Castles as a Celebration of Wine itinerary. Compare the route and shore program with other Rhine and Moselle journeys.

Burgundy & beyond

Flavors of Burgundy is another Celebration of Wine option. A wine-focused itinerary lets you compare the experience ashore as well as the days spent on the river.

Before you choose

What does a dedicated wine cruise add?

AmaWaterways’ Celebration of Wine program uses a wine professional as host, with tastings and discussions, selected vineyard or cellar excursions and food-and-wine pairings. Check the program and named host for your departure.

Is every cruise through a wine region a wine cruise?

A route through vineyards can offer wine experiences without being a dedicated themed sailing. Confirm that your specific departure carries the wine program; the route name alone is not enough.

What should you check before choosing?

Compare the host, tasting schedule, included excursions and any extra-cost experiences. Ask about walking requirements and alternatives for anyone who does not want to join every wine activity.
