Adults-Only Adventures by Disney River Cruise
An interesting partnership began last year when Disney’s Adventures by Disney tour division teamed up with AmaWaterways. The goal was to introduce families to river cruising, a concept not often considered when discussing river cruises.
With Disney-quality programming and the beautiful new AmaWaterways AmaKristina, the family departures were a sell-out.
Enter new Adults-Only Disney river cruises.
For those that want the perfection of a Disney product combined with the upscale hardware from AmaWaterways, Disney included a handful of Europe river cruises for only adults; no kids allowed. Disney supplies the majority of the crew as well as their own cruise manager (called an Adventure Guide) and shore excursions.
If this sounds appealing, there are two Adventures by Disney Rhine river cruises for adults next year, running from Basel, Switzerland and Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Here’s a sample of what you can expect:
Board the AmaKristina in Basel
Welcome aboard Swiss Cheese and Wine Reception
Captain’s Welcome Cocktail
