From past passengers -

  • What a serene way to begin each day. . . lying in bed with the sliding doors to the balcony open, you just feel so close to the riverbanks and the scenery around you. 
  • We had a great time on board.Our cruise director was the best and the staff were great. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat. The food and wine were great .Our rooms were great - would recommend this trip to anyone it was everything I imagined and more. WOW thanks
  • 15 day Magnificent Europe - Amsterdam to Budapest   
  •  Itinerary well planned out , with Quaint villages, superb scenery . The convenience of unpacking once at the beginning of a 15 day trip was heavenly. Extremely comfortable bed, excellent, attentive cabin crew, all crew very friendly & helpful. Professional ground staff in Europe, all requirements met. Highly recommend .  
  • We recently completed this cruise. We have done trips with a multitude of tour companies in a number of countries over the last 10 years We always read the fine print and in the end are quite happy if the result is 80% of expectations. We therefore must congratulate APT and the entire crew of Amadante because the entire cruise experience was in the end probably 120% of expectations. We hardly know where to start. Very friendly and helpful staff, meals and extras as good as one could expect in any 6 star hotel, generous with coffee, wines etc and nothing but the best on all excursions. We hardly need to sing the praises of APT to others because everyone we meet has praise. The quite wealthy Americans on board were clearly very impressed. Thank you again and we look forward to future trips with APT.   
  • What a fabulous experience we had aboard the Amacello in June 2008. The ship, the crew, the meals, the excursions - everything was all I had hoped for and much, much more. The morning we sailed through the Rhine Gorge is something I will never forget and we loved all the gorgeous medieval towns that we visited. My favourites were Rothenberg and Bamburg whilst my husband loved Durnstein. An added bonus at the end of our tour was when I got to hold a falcon at Fishermans Bastion in Budapest. I loved the fact that we only had to unpack once, and yet we visited five countries. The on-board entertainment was great and we danced many a night away as well as meeting some lovely people. What a wonderful introduction to Europe - loved every minute
