Creator's Key Takeaways

We're taking you aboard AmaWaterways' unique AmaMagna vessel with us to share exactly what makes this double-wide river cruise ship such a game-changer on the Danube River.

I would for sure cruise on this again.

The gym is really nice. That's a good point, too. The gym's a little larger than normal because the size is there and there is space for that.

It's a nice bridge if somebody wants to get into river cruising.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Consider the double-wide ship as a gateway if you're new to river cruising from ocean ships.
โœ“Bring your own detergent for guest laundry if you plan to use it.

We're taking you aboard AmaWaterways' unique AmaMagna vessel with us to share exactly what makes this double-wide river cruise ship such a game-changer on the Danube River. You'll discover how the extra space translates into multiple restaurants, larger staterooms, and amenities you won't find on traditional river ships โ€“ including a pickleball court, full-size gym with spin bikes, and even a pool with a hot tub. We'll walk you through our honest pros and cons, from the spacious dance floor and guest laundry facilities to the limited itinerary options due to the ship's size. โžก๏ธŽ See our photos of AmaMagna here: https://sometimessailing.com/amamagna-river-cruise-ship-amawaterways-review-double-wide/ Whether you're an ocean cruiser considering your first river cruise or a river cruise veteran curious about this innovative design, you'll understand exactly who this ship works best for and how it compares to traditional single-wide vessels.
