ORLANDO — Adventures by Disney will begin cruises of
the Rhine next spring, senior vice president Ken Potrock announced at the "Awaken
Summer" Disney media tour on Tuesday.
The seven-night journeys, offered in partnership with
Ama Waterways, will sail on a new ship, the AmaKristina. The ship will
accommodate 160 guests who will be accompanied by eight Disney adventure
guides.
“With eight adventure guides onboard the ship, we have
the ability for people to do whatever they want,” Potrock said, noting that
guests will be able to take small guided tours or go in bigger groups for more
popular excursions.
The cruises will pass through Germany, the
Netherlands, France and Switzerland. They go on sale this week.
Adventures by Disney is
sailing its first Danube river cruises this year, also in partnership with Ama.
