About AmaMelodia
AmaMelodia belongs to AmaWaterways's Nile series and entered service in 2018. Built to navigate the lock systems and bridge clearances of European waterways, she measures roughly 73 metres in length and accommodates up to 72 guests in 36 staterooms across 3 passenger decks.
AmaWaterways operates a young, design-forward fleet across Europe, the Mekong, the Nile and the Chobe. The line is known for twin-balcony staterooms (a French balcony plus a step-out balcony in the same cabin), the chef-driven Chef's Table specialty restaurant and a complimentary bicycle program for guided cycling excursions. AmaMelodia reflects that brand DNA — from the design of her public spaces to the inclusions in her base fare.
The ship's typical home waters are the Nile, where she runs 2 distinct itineraries during the operating season. Repositioning sailings, themed wine cruises and Christmas-market voyages may be added in autumn and early winter.
