AmaWaterways has published its 2024 brochure and is offering travel agents a free cruise with every five bookings made.

The 2024 programme – which is being distributed to UK trade partners and can be downloaded in digital format from the line’s agent portal – includes 45 itineraries across Europe, Asia, Africa and for the first time, the Magdalena river in Colombia.

Agents who make five bookings before 31 December 2024 will qualify for a complimentary cruise for themselves and a companion.

Next year, AmaWaterways is offering guests the choice between two seven-night itineraries, Magic of Colombia and Wonders of Colombia. 

Cruises will operate on the 60-passenger AmaMagdalena. In June 2025, a second ship, AmaMelodia, will also launch in Colombia.

The line will also debut its the Flavours of Burgundy seven-night itinerary in 2024, sailing between Dijon and Lyon.

AmaWaterways set for ‘exciting year’

AmaWaterways managing director Jamie Loizou said: “2024 is an exciting year for AmaWaterways, as we become the first and only major river cruise line to sail on Colombia’s Magdalena river.

“We are already seeing strong forward business for 2024, and with a new destination, new ships, savings of 20 per cent off many departures and now a strong incentive, it is a great time for agents to promote AmaWaterways to their clients.”

Earlier in August, the river line opened reservations for its 2025 itineraries.
