Adventures by Disney Adds River Cruises
Adventures by Disney Adds More River Cruises
Well well well, isn’t Disney popular. Just one month after the introduction of its first-ever river cruising itineraries, Adventures by Disney, along with AmaWaterways, announced additional sailings have been added to the 2016 river cruising lineup.
Now, there will be five sailings along the Danube River in the summer of 2016. Disney will also offer two holiday themed sailing in December 2016. The cruises will give adventurous travelers the opportunity to experience iconic locations and hidden gems in eight destinations across four countries – Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary.
River Cruising on the Newest Vessel from AmaWaterways
Adventures by Disney guests will sail aboard the all-new, 170-passenger AmaViola. The river cruise ship is being custom built by AmaWaterways with families in mind. New family-friendly design elements include specific room configurations, including six sets of connecting staterooms. Some rooms and suites will accommodate three- and four-person families, and other unique details that lend themselves to luxury family vacations.
“We are so very excited to bring the beauty of river cruising to the family market through these special sailings with Adventures by Disney,” said Kristin Karst, co-owner and executive vice president of AmaWaterways. “We look forward to working together with Adventures by Disney to offer innovative experiences that help families create unforgettable memories.”
The new Adventures by Disney river cruising departures are designed to meet the needs and interests of all participating family members – allowing grandparents, parents and children alike to make memories that will last a lifetime.
Adventures by Disney exclusive sailings will take place July 7-14, July 14-21, July 21-28, July 28 – Aug. 4 and Aug. 4-11, 2016. There’s also a special holiday themed sailing departing Dec. 15, 2016.
I can’t wait for this river cruise. My kid is going to love it. And I’m hoping some of the princesses will be onboard.
