River Cruise Line

THE STORY

The family-owned and operated AmaWaterways was founded in 2002 by three families; however, our cruise story began well before that. Co-Founder and President Rudi Schreiner was born in Vienna, at the heart of the Danube. In 1975, he traveled to South America for a journalism assignment on the Amazon. It was here he designed his first ship, using what he could find to build a raft that would take him up and down the river during the next 7 months. Soon thereafter, he started working in travel, creating unique tour experiences in Europe.

WHY AMAWATERWAYS

With eighteen years of experience on the world’s rivers, Amawaterways has remained focused on what we do best: providing guests with innovative and unforgettable travel experiences. Their visionary leaders were the pioneers of modern luxury river cruising and have received numerous prestigious awards and accolades.
