AmaLyra
After her launch, AmaLyra quickly earned a "Best New River Cruise Ship" distinction in comfort and style. Perhaps it was because of the scenery afforded by the ship’s French balconies, or because of the exquisite cuisine served by the Main Restaurant and in a delightful, multi-course production as part of The Chef’s Table experience. Whatever the reason, savor the comfort of staterooms appointed with Entertainment-On-Demand, unlimited Wi-Fi, movies, music and English-language TV stations. Revel in the indulgences offered by the sauna, whirlpool, and massage and hair salon. Delight in the blues and yellows of the ship’s interior design, a subtle reflection of how the sunlight just outside shines down on the river. And take advantage of AmaLyra’s sun-deck walking track, fitness room and fleet of complimentary bikes—because maybe being on the best river cruise ship means being the best version of you.
