AmaWaterways is offering a new selection of combination cruises in Europe for 2025, which connects two popular 7-night cruises along two different rivers to provide travelers with an extended cruise experience. 

The 14-night Grand European itineraries begin at $5,999 per person, per double occupancy and include transfers between cruises. Travelers can save twenty percent on select sailings when they book these sailings by December 31, 2023 with AmaWaterways’ Early Booking Reward. 

The first Grand European itinerary is the Grand Seine & Bordeaux, a 14-night combination cruise experience that takes travelers along the Seine, Garonne and Dordogne rivers, along with the Gironde Estuary. It combines two of AmaWaterways’ French cruises, the Paris & Normandy aboard the AmaLyra and the Taste of Bordeaux on the AmaDolce. There will be fifteen departures of this cruise between March and October, 2025. 

The 14-night Grand Seine & Rhône itinerary combines the Paris & Normandy onboard the AmaLyra with the Essence of Burgundy & Provence onboard the AmaCello. There is a train connection between them, from Paris to Dijon. The eleven sailings of this itinerary take place between March and November, 2025.  

Another itinerary is the Grand Rhine & Dutch Canals itinerary, a combination cruise of the Best of Holland & Belgium, Enchanting Rhine and Captivating Rhine itineraries, all aboard the AmaStella. There are nine departures taking place between July and December, 2025. 

Others include a Grand Danube voyage between Vilshofen and Giurgiu, and a Magnificent Europe sailing between Amsterdam and Budapest. 

“As the demand for more extensive travel experiences continues to rise, we are thrilled to unveil three new 14-night itineraries set to debut in 2025,” said Kristin Karst, co-founder and executive vice president of AmaWaterways. “The new Grand series offer combination cruising complete with complimentary transfers between ships and the choice of up to 40 included excursions, making it even more convenient for our guests to fully immerse themselves in the history, culture and culinary delights of France, Germany and the Netherlands.”
