AmaWaterways is offering solo travelers three ways to book single occupancy staterooms with no single supplement.
Solo travelers can now reserve a spot on more than 145 river cruises in 2018, including 24 wine cruises, throughout Europe and Asia and get the room of their choice without having to pay a single supplement. The Solo Traveler Promotion applies to all stateroom categories except suites.
In addition, the single supplement fee will be waived for solo travelers booking a base category stateroom (Categories E and D) on any departure with AmaWaterways’ Solo Traveler Program. This offer can be combined with the Past Passenger Privilege and Onboard Future Cruise Benefit programs. Both offers are capacity controlled and early bookings are encouraged to get the widest choice of itineraries and departure dates.
AmaWaterways also offers a third option for solo travelers on four ships—AMA DOLCE, AMA DANTE, AMA LYRA and AMA CELLO—which have a limited number of specially-designed single occupancy staterooms featuring a French balcony. These require no single supplement.

“There’s something liberating about traveling on your own, as it gives you the opportunity to truly immerse yourself in a new culture and meet new people, in many cases making lifelong friends,” said Kristin Karst, executive vice president and co-owner of AmaWaterways. “We are always excited to welcome solo travelers onboard and have continued to see tremendous growth in this market.”
On AmaWaterways solo travelers feel right at home with added attention, including invitations to a welcome cocktail reception and to dine at the captain’s table in the main dining room and assistance in choosing from up to 20 included shore excursions offered each week.
Deals for single travelers are even available on AmaWaterways’ wine cruises. * Photo: AmaWaterways
The line’s Solo Traveler Program is not just for those traveling on their own. The program is also attractive for those seeking the luxury of more stateroom space on a girlfriend getaway or as part of a multigenerational family vacation.
