Celebration of Beer and Wine
Blend your passion for travel with your affinity for enjoying a “cold one” as you learn more about Europe’s rich brewing traditions and cultural connections on AmaWaterways’ new immersive beer-themed river cruises. Support local brewing communities with a lively beer culture, such as Düsseldorf and Cologne along the Rhine River, and Bruges and Utrecht along the Dutch and Belgian Waterways, guided by local brewmasters.
For those who prefer wine to beer, you can also enjoy one of AmaWaterways’ Celebration of Wine River Cruises. Each of these specialty cruises 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.
