AMAKRISTINA AmaWaterways
The lowdown
Named in honour of the river cruise line’s co-founder and vice-president Kristin Karst, AmaKristina launched in 2017. It can accommodate 156 passengers and sails one-week Rhine cruises between Amsterdam and Basel.
The facts f A gym, a heated sun deck pool, free daily fitness classes and cycling and hiking excursions – there’s no excuse for not staying in shape on this ship. And just in case passengers overdo it, there’s a masseur onboard to soothe aching muscles.
f Once per cruise, passengers will be treated to a Chaîne des Rötisseurs dinner in the main restaurant and a five-course tasting menu in the intimate Chef’s Table at the back of the ship. There’s no extra charge for either.
f Breakfast and lunch are buffets, while dinners are served. Light tapas tasters are available in the lounge.
f Most cabins have two balconies with seating areas inside and out. For families, there are 12 rooms that can accommodate a third person, as well as three pairs of interconnecting cabins.
