AmaWaterways is uncorking an impressive number of
wine-focused itineraries this year.


Oenophiles and casual wine-drinkers alike will delight in
the fact that river cruise line AmaWaterways has announced its 2018 wine
cruises – with more than 50 itineraries hosted by North American winemakers,
winery owners and phenologists.


Those looking for an immersive wine experience that involves
both the old and the new world, will find it onboard AmaWaterways European
cruises.


“Wine has always been a passion of mine, so to see our
guests enjoy these educational and immersive experiences with such esteemed
Wine Hosts is really rewarding,” said Rudi Schreiner, president and co-owner of
AmaWaterways.


“Since introducing the concept of wine cruises more than
seven years ago, we continue to see an increased interest from our guests and
plan to expand even further our partnerships with the North American wineries
and wine experts hosting these incredible adventures," Schreiner added.


AmaWaterways’ wine cruises continue to grow in popularity in
part due to the depth of expertise offered by onboard experts. Next year’s
lineup includes guests from a diverse number of regions in North America,
including renowned vintners, sommeliers, and winery owners.


In addition to wine hosts onboard, there are immersive shore
excursions that provide an in-depth look at the wine regions of Europe. River
cruises feature some of Europe’s most famous wine-producing areas, including
France’s Bordeaux, Burgundy and Alsace regions; Germany’s Moselle and Rhine
valleys; Austria’s Wachau and Portugal’s Douro River area.


One notable wine cruise with an impressive itinerary and outstanding
value is the “Enticing Douro River” river cruise above AmaVida – organized by
TravelPerks. This 12-night package deal include 11 nights aboard the AmaVida
with an optional one-night extension in Barcelona. Multiple shore excursions
and enrichment tours are included, as well as most meals.

From Our Clients...

Once In A Lifetime Trip

I was talking about TravelPerks during our state presentation, and a member commented that they had booked cruises through TravelPerks and had a fabulous experience! They both said that you guys were super easy to work with and explained everything well and they felt cared for. It's not often we get members interrupting a presentation to put it out there that they had a great experience!

Booking a Vacation is FUN!

"In today’s environment, booking vacations is hard. Why? There are a million and one websites out there that all have information on them. You can look at peer reviews until you are blue in the face. Is this ship really that bad? Is it the best thing ever? Is the resort awesome? Was it an isolated incident? Who knows. And sorting through all of them and figuring out what is real and what is somebody making a mountain out of a molehill takes time.

Which is where Theresa comes in. We love working with her for our vacations. It generally involves a quick phone call giving her a budget and the vibe we are looking for. And then go on an awesome vacation. No pecking through reviews and pricing that should be written in hieroglyphics. Just straight-up advice and no-nonsense planning.

Prior to using Theresa’s team, I would spend hours planning and routing and reading. Now? I pick the phone up or I email the awesome team and they take care of me and we get to enjoy our vacation. If you are booking a large group or an intimate vacation, I highly recommend Theresa and her team. Awesome to do business with and they make vacations FUN!"

Assistance every step of the way.

"Although I'm in Florida, Michael Teague assisted us every step of the way. From the beginning of the planning, through the coordinating with family members, getting excursions to fit different family members and even last minute changes to get the best out of this vacation, Michael has been key to us enjoying an amazing family (12) vacation. I will definitely seek him out again!"

Last-minute Caribbean Christmas Cruise

"We spontaneously decided our family wanted to go on a Caribbean cruise for the Christmas holidays, and with little/no time, turned to TravelPerks Dream Vacations to help select, book and make it happen. We have cruised two times before, with TravelPerks, both times, have been exceptional experiences and this was no different. Matt Kim, my Travel Advisor, was attentive, quickly understood what I was looking for, my parameters, cruise type, our preferences, likes/dislikes and we were able to find and secure the right cruise for us (7 day Norweggian cruise). He gave great suggestions in regard to rooms, room location, meals, excursions, add-on packages and also where we could save money. Leading up to cruise day, we had many questions that came up and Matt answered them all, quickly and expertly. Matt - thank you for making this a wonderful and unforgetable experience for our family!"

Exceptional support through delayed vacation due to COVID

"Theresa was wonderful. We had been planning this Alaskan cruise since 2019 and then COVID hit and then we were still unsure about 2021 so we waited another year. Theresa took care of everything for us, checking in with us every couple of weeks and making sure that we were getting our checklist taken care of. Thank you, Theresa and TravelPerks Dream Vacations, we had a great time and cannot wait for our next cruise."

– Donna H. - Alaska Cruise, 2022
