AmaWaterways Expands Opportunities for Solo and Group Travelers in 2027

Expanded Benefits and Limited-Time Offers Designed to Support Growing Travel Trends

 

Calabasas, CA, February 23, 2026 – AmaWaterways, the largest cruise line dedicated exclusively to river cruising, continues to expand opportunities for both solo cruisers and group travelers with thoughtfully designed sailings that combine immersive experiences, cultural enrichment and personalized service. For a limited time, new incentives are available on select 2027 departures to support travel advisors in capturing strong demand across both segments.

 

Now open for new bookings made through March 31, 2026, these offers apply to select 2027 sailings and build on AmaWaterways’ commitment to delivering exceptional value and world class travel experiences.

 

“Group travel and solo travel continue to be among the strongest trends in our industry,” said Alex Pinelo, Chief Sales Officer of AmaWaterways. “These new incentives reward advisors for building group business as well as making it easier for solo travelers to enjoy an AmaWaterways journey. Taken together, they provide flexible, meaningful options that reflect what clients are looking for today – rich experiences, value and genuine cultural connection.”

 

Solo Traveler Offer

As more guests embrace traveling alone, AmaWaterways remains committed to creating a welcoming and enriching experience for solo travelers. From small-group excursions that make it easy to connect with other guests and knowledgeable local guides, to a warm onboard atmosphere, solo guests are thoughtfully supported throughout their journey. Dedicated ship tours on embarkation day, invitations to special gatherings and the support of attentive Cruise Managers and crew members help ensure solo travelers feel comfortable from the moment they step aboard. For solo guests choosing to celebrate holidays such as Christmas and New Year’s, AmaWaterways fosters a warm, inclusive atmosphere where festive traditions can be enjoyed alongside a built-in community of fellow travelers.

 

In recognition of the continued growth in the segment, AmaWaterways is offering a special 10% single supplement on over 500 sailings selected in 2026 and 2027. Available on bookings made through March 31, 2026, the reduced single supplement applies to all stateroom categories except Suites on eligible departures.

 

Limited-Time Group Offer

With thoughtfully curated experiences in every port, dedicated wine rooms in the dining room that seat 8 to 10 guests, and the ability for groups to reserve the Chef’s Table Restaurant for private, hosted experiences, AmaWaterways offers an ideal setting for groups looking to gather and connect. The company is also developing a curated menu of customizable experiences that groups can request to tailor their sailing around shared interests, such as wellness. From wine- and beer-themed departures featuring guided tastings and expert hosts to Smithsonian Journeys cruises offering exclusive excursions and expert-led enrichment, travel advisors can seamlessly align a wide range of group interests with the ideal itinerary.

 

For a limited time, AmaWaterways is introducing a special group offer on all new 2027 group bookings made before March 31, 2026. During the promotional period, the group discount doubles from $250 to $500 per person, and complimentary gratuities are included, adding exceptional value for group clients.

 

This offer builds on AmaWaterways’ Enhanced Group program, which continues to provide long-term benefits and incentives to support advisor growth. Now available on more dates, the program ensures that every group booking contributes toward future sailing benefits and additional rewards. Advisors can earn a complimentary 7-night cruise on select 2026 or 2027 departures to experience the AmaWaterways difference firsthand. Full details are available on the Travel Advisor Portal.

 

Both offers reflect AmaWaterways’ focus on providing versatile options that meet evolving traveler preferences while giving travel advisors flexible tools to grow their business.
