History

The twin balcony, concretely

The line has made it their signature, and the phrase recurs across every brochure without anyone ever explaining what it covers. Here is the thing: in one cabin, two openings. A sliding glass wall with a railing, which turns the room into a veranda when opened wide. And beside it, a door onto a real outdoor balcony, with a floor and two chairs.

The point is not space, which stays modest. It is choice. At fifteen degrees with a wind, the glass wall gives you the air without the cold. In fine weather, the balcony gives you the outdoors. Over a two-week cruise, that flexibility weighs more than the stated square footage.

Not every cabin has one. The lower categories open onto a window, and the line's 110-metre hulls have only a French balcony. Check the category on the deck plan before paying a deposit.

Rhine, Main, Danube

AmaPrima works the full network, with departures from Basel, Amsterdam, Nuremberg and Luxembourg. Our count on 26 August 2026 found 94 departure dates across three years.

The hull

A hundred and thirty-five metres, 161 guests, 85 cabins, delivered in 2013. Some sources credit it with introducing the twin balcony to the fleet, others give that precedence to an earlier hull from 2012. The exact order is not established, and we will not arbitrate.

The other ships in the fleet

AmaCerto and AmaVenita share its network and configuration. AmaStella and AmaSerena belong to the second wave, with larger cabins.

The fare, line by line

It covers life aboard: the cabin, all meals, wine and beer at lunch and dinner, soft drinks at any hour, a daily cocktail, and a guided excursion at every port. Wi-Fi is included. The European ships carry bicycles, available during port calls.

Excursions are chosen by effort level: gentle, regular or active. The active level means walking a long way, often uphill and on cobbles. The gentle level exists for a reason, and nobody will judge you for taking it.

Two items stay on your account: gratuities, included on no destination, and air travel, unless bought through the line's air programme. Putting both in the budget at the outset avoids the unpleasant surprise of the last day.

What life aboard assumes

An adult clientele, days shaped by the port calls, short evenings. No children's club, no childcare, no youth activities. Minors share a cabin with a responsible adult, and the minimum age depends on the destination.

The lift links the main decks without reaching the sun deck. Boarding is by a gangway whose slope changes from quay to quay, and sometimes by crossing another ship. These are details as long as you walk well, and real obstacles otherwise.

What a Quebec agency protects

A licence from Quebec's Office de la protection du consommateur, a trust account for the sums received, and the Compensation Fund for Customers of Travel Agents. Three verifiable things, and the licence number appears on your contract. A booking made outside Quebec gives no right to them.

To that add what the law does not provide: someone who answers when a connection collapses on a Sunday night and the ship leaves the next morning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Two openings in the same cabin: a sliding glass wall with a railing, and a door onto a real outdoor balcony with a floor and chairs. The point is choice, not space.
No. The lower categories open onto a fixed window. Check the category on the deck plan before paying a deposit, because the difference is lived every morning.
In cool, windy weather: the glass wall gives you the air without the cold, where a balcony alone would go unused. Over two weeks that flexibility counts more than the stated area.
Our inventory measured 94 departure dates on 26 August 2026, across 2026, 2027 and 2028, departing from Basel, Amsterdam, Nuremberg or Luxembourg.
A hundred and sixty-one guests in 85 cabins, the original configuration of the 135-metre series delivered between 2010 and 2015.
The Rhine, the Main and the Danube, joined by the Main-Danube canal. The port of departure changes the geography of the voyage a great deal.
In 2013. Some sources credit it with introducing the twin balcony to the fleet, others cite a 2012 hull. The exact order is not established and we will not arbitrate.
A hundred and thirty-five metres, the standard length of the European series. It fits every lock on the network, including those of the Main-Danube canal.
Ordinary service is; gratuities are not. That is a real difference from several river lines in the same category, and it is sometimes discovered too late.
Yes, unless you go through the line's air programme. Either way, plan a night on the ground before embarkation rather than a tight connection.
Gentle for a slow pace and little walking, regular for moderate activity, active for sustained walking with stairs and slopes. The gentle level exists for a reason, and nobody will judge you for taking it.
It depends on the destination, and published sources do not agree on a single figure. Have the minimum age confirmed for the date and ship you have in mind before booking.
No, and that is the point worth weighing: the sun deck is reached by stair, and it is the place the river is best seen from.
Yes, free to use during port calls on the line's European ships. On the Rhine and the Main, cycle paths follow the bank almost everywhere.
For the trust account and the Compensation Fund for Customers of Travel Agents, neither of which follows a booking made elsewhere. Add someone who answers when a connection collapses the day before departure.
