Step aboard the AmaRudi, an elegant river-cruise vessel from AmaWaterways purpose-built for the banks of the Danube. With a length of 443 feet and a width of 72 feet, she’s notably wider than traditional river cruise ships, giving you more space and a greater sense of luxury. With accommodation for 196 guests and a crew of 70, she blends a sophisticated scale with attentive service. You’ll find the design emphasises comfort, premium public spaces and modern amenities — ideal for a first-class European river journey.
On board AmaRudi you’ll discover a host of experiences to suit both relaxation and active pursuits. The sun deck features a pool and whirlpool, ideal for lounging as the riverside scenery drifts by. There is also a “Zen Wellness Studio” and a well-appointed fitness area with panoramic views — so you can keep up your gym routine even while cruising. For a drink with a view, the Pop-Up Sky Bar on deck is a chic choice for an aperitif at sunset. Shore excursions on the Danube are typically included and range from gentle guided walks to more active options, depending on your energy levels and interests.
When it’s time to dine, AmaRudi offers an impressive culinary programme. You’ll be able to choose from several venues — including a main dining room, an Al Fresco restaurant with outdoor space, a family-style restaurant (“Jimmy’s”) and the speciality Chef’s Table for a gourmet multi-course experience. The menus emphasise locally-sourced produce and regional flavours, complementing the scenery passing by your window. Drinks such as beer, wine and soft drinks with meals are included in the fare, giving you the freedom to enjoy without fuss.
You’ll find a range of staterooms and suites on AmaRudi, all designed to maximise your comfort with river-view windows or balconies. Most of the accommodation is made up of large suites — the majority measuring approximately 355 sq ft, with Grand Suites at around 474 sq ft and an indulgent Owner’s Suite even larger. Standard staterooms still impress — for example, category AA/AB cabins begin at about 252 sq ft. Features across categories include in-room temperature control, spacious bathrooms with multi-jet showerheads, flat-screen TVs with on-demand entertainment, complimentary bottled water, WiFi and plenty of wardrobe/storage space. Whether you choose a suite or a well-equipped cabin, you’ll be comfortable and well-catered for.
