French Xmas Cruise with Ama 1 Key & Chris, Florida, United States, Dec 2024
As a couple in our 40’s, we wanted to get away for Christmas. We’d done a river cruise with another company previously, but this time decided to do Provence with AmaWaterways. What an awesome trip! We met such great people and had some really unique experiences; truffle hunting, a food tasting tour of Avignon and even a ghost tour after dinner one night. read more We did a couple of the biking tours as well, which I would recommend to people. There was honestly something for everyone.
The food on board was incredible – especially the soups, which hit the spot on those chilly French winter days. We did the 3 nights in Paris before the cruise, which AmaWaterways arranged too. This made everything super easy. The Cruise Manager stayed with us the whole time, even arranging for our bags to go straight to the ship, whilst our small group took the train to Lyon together. Once we arrived in Lyon, we even did a cooking class, which was such a fun way to kick things off. We loved AmaWaterways so much, we have now booked to go with them on The Nile in 2026!
