AmaWaterways has unveiled renderings of AmaRudi, the cruise line’s second double-width river ship. Its inaugural cruise along the River Danube is scheduled for April 11, 2027, departing from Vilshofen in Germany.
The ship is based on the concept of the AmaMagna. Measuring 135 metres, it has a capacity of 196 passengers across 98 staterooms.
The ship will feature multiple dining venues, including alfresco dining and a wine bar. Wellness amenities will include a fitness centre, massage treatment rooms, and hair and nail services.
Entertainment concepts include a social hub featuring a cinema, karaoke, billiards and a jukebox.
"We knew there would be a right time to revisit that concept, and with river cruising continuing to grow, that time is now. More travellers are making the transition from ocean cruising to rivers, and many are looking for a sense of space and choice,” says Rudi Schreiner, Co-founder and Chairman of AmaWaterways.
