AMA Introduce Limited Edition Visits
Oct 31.- As the river-cruise lines look to find different ways to entice passengers in 2014, enhanced shore excursions are very much in vogue, with all manner of special ideas, experiences and personalised offerings cropping up.
And, with that in mind, AmaWaterways has introduced an extra range of excursions, Limited Edition Tours, aimed at guests who are already familiar with the ports visited and are looking for a different angle or a deeper immersion in local culture.
Limited Edition tours (like all regular shore excursions with AMA), are included in the price of the cruise, although numbers are restricted to make the experience more personal. Themes may include food and wine, cycling on the fleet of bicycles carried on each ship, arts and crafts, or exploring a city’s hidden treasures with a local.
Examples of the new tours include a visit to a traditional Viennese coffee house to try the traditional range of coffees and a slice of Sachertorte, followed by a cellar tour to sample Austrian sparking wine; or in Cologne, a visit that discovers the history of the famous Eau de Cologne. From Oporto in Portugal, travel to a farm that manufactures cork products to learn all about the local cork industry and visit the family’s private museum, or, in Bratislava, enjoy a tasting of Slovak specialities, including sheep’s cheese soup and stuffed potato ravioli.
