AmaWaterways introduces European river cruises designed for Spanish speakers

Spanish-speaking passengers will get a boost in 2018 with a new series of European river cruises by AmaWaterways, which include briefings and excursions in English and Spanish.

The family-owned company, celebrating 15 years of river cruising, has 20 ships with itineraries on the Danube, Rhine, Moselle, Main, Rhone and Seine rivers, among others.

Weeklong, Spanish-friendly itineraries will include 10 popular routes, sailing on the Danube (April 20, July 14, Aug. 17) and the Rhine (May 12, Aug. 27, Sept. 10) as well as destinations such as Bordeaux (Aug. 23), Paris and Normandy (Oct. 11) and Christmas markets (Nov. 25 and Dec. 1).

The series is called Sailings With a Latin Touch, and will be hosted by a bilingual cruise manager.
