AmaWaterways plans to add one
river cruise ship to its European fleet in 2018, the 158-passenger AmaLea.
The new vessel will be the sister
ship to the AmaKristina, which is launching in 2017, and will bring to 19 the
number of ships in AmaWaterways' European fleet. The AmaLea will sail the
Danube River as well as Holland/Belgium cruises in the spring.
In line with AmaWaterways' newest
generation of ships, which are being built to better accommodate larger groups
traveling together, it will feature connecting staterooms and triple
accommodations. Many of the staterooms on the two upper decks will have the
company's twin-balconies concept (a French balcony adjacent to a step-out
balcony).
The public areas will include a swimming
pool with a swim-up bar and an intimate Chef's Table specialty restaurant.
