Amawaterways

AmaMagdalena & AmaMelodia

Heartfelt journeys along the world’s most beautiful rivers.

AmaWaterways offers award-winning river cruises that feel personal, luxurious, and deeply enriching. With beautifully appointed ships, immersive shore excursions, and outstanding cuisine (including wine and beer with meals as standard), every journey is crafted with care — sailing through Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America.

Life onboard is elegant yet relaxed, with open seating dining, included daily excursions, and a welcoming crew who know your name and your favourite drink. It’s all about quality, connection, and slowing down to truly savour each moment.


For solo travellers, AmaWaterways offers a wonderfully reassuring experience. The smaller ships and inclusive atmosphere make it easy to feel at home, while special solo offers — including reduced or waived single supplements — open up even more possibilities.


Wherever you sail, you’ll travel with heart — and come home changed.

AmaMagdalena and AmaMelodia are sister ships purpose-built for sailing Colombia’s Magdalena River, representing AmaWaterways’ expansion into one of South America’s most exciting emerging river cruise destinations.


Designed for immersive exploration rather than scale, these ships offer a boutique, culturally rich experience — combining Ama’s signature comfort with authentic Colombian influences.


The ships are virtually identical in design and experience; the difference lies primarily in sailing dates and itinerary scheduling rather than onboard style.


Key Highlights

  • Designed as small, boutique river vessels

  • Intimate guest capacity for a highly personalised experience

  • Contemporary interiors with subtle local design influences

  • Panoramic lounge spaces to enjoy scenic cruising

  • Balcony staterooms designed to maximise river views

  • Main restaurant serving a blend of international and Colombian-inspired cuisine


Ship Vibe

Calm, curious & intimate. Guests often form strong connections due to the smaller group size and shared exploratory spirit.
