A one-of-a-kind Colombian adventure with AmaWaterways

A new chapter in river cruising

In April 2025, the AmaMagdalena embarked on its maiden voyage and, for the first time, travellers were able to explore the Magdalena River in true luxury. This groundbreaking addition to the AmaWaterways fleet is about more than just exploring a new territory; it’s an invitation to connect with Colombia in a way that has never been possible until now.

Every element of the ship, from its design to its itineraries, has been thoughtfully tailored to provide an intimate and enriching experience for guests while supporting the region’s local communities. Sailing along the Magdalena, you’ll uncover stories of history, music, and traditions as the riverbanks reveal Colombia’s heart and soul. Whether it’s the historic UNESCO-designated town of Mompox or the spirited Barranquilla Carnival celebrations, each day brings encounters that stay with you long after the cruise ends

Comfort and elegance on the AmaMagdalena

The AmaMagdalena redefines river cruising by blending contemporary comfort with local craftsmanship. It was custom-designed alongside Colombian artisans to reflect the beauty of the region. Each of the 30 staterooms includes AmaWaterways’ signature twin-balcony design, offering both French and outdoor balconies so you can enjoy the scenery to its fullest.

On board, you’ll find all the facilities expected on a luxury cruise ship and more. A pool on the Sun Deck, a fitness room, and an intimate al fresco dining space are just some of the places where you can unwind. Mealtimes on board celebrate the best of Colombian and Latin American dishes alongside classic favourites, with every menu designed to cater to the most discerning of tastes. This fusion of elegance and authenticity is what makes sailing on the AmaMagdalena so special. It’s not just about where you’re going; it’s also about how you get there.
