AmaWaterways Concierge Golf: Luxurious River Cruise Plus World Class Courses

A spectacular European river cruise and golf at world-class courses—perfect together! Imagine golfing at the finest courses in different countries all on one trip. Imagine not having to organize tee times, transportation, club cleaning and so on. Imagine having your favorite luxury hotel follow you wherever you go with everything you need for the perfect vacation.

AmaWaterways’ Exclusive Concierge Golf Program includes 7 nights on board the line’s newest and most innovative ship to date, the AmaMagna, sailing along the iconic Danube and taking you to some of Europe’s most prestigious golf courses.

With this seamless golfing experience, guests are transferred from ship to course and back by private luxury Mercedes. Once on the course, you need only golf and enjoy—your tee time, practice balls and golf cart are prepared in advance, and after your round enjoy lunch in the course clubhouse. When it’s time to transfer back to the AmaMagna, your clubs will be cleaned and ready for the next course on your golf adventure.
