Thank you for your review! We are so looking forward to this pre/post and cruise come August.

Thanks, everyone! Looking forward to this trip. Alaskabound, safe travels, and looking forward to your review when you return!

We went with AMA Waterways. Did a pre-cruise with AMA starting in Lisbon and did a couple of extra days on our own in Porto which I would HIGHLY recommend. Stayed at a b and b on the river opposite where the ships dock. The food was unbelievable! My mission was to purchase something made out of cork. I found this unique pocketbook that I always get compliments on. Enjoy!

Since we have done Normandy on an ocean cruise, we decided to skip this river cruise and branch out to areas we have not been to so I can't help you on that end. I CAN highly recommend AMA Waterways. We have never been disappointed.

We have been on 6 rivers with AMA Waterways and would highly recommend them. They never disappointed.

After researching where we wanted to cruise next I did see that this river is nothing in particular and that's ok. We are interested in the wines. Guggenheim is on an excursion with AMA. Wondering how that compares to the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum? I was just wondering what the "must see" would be. Thank you for your info!

will do. Enjoy your time with AMA. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Safe travels

!2012 Alaska Bound.... enjoy your trip and safe travels

We are taking AMA on the Bordeaux cruise in September. We will be doing their pre-cruise in Bilbao and San Sebastian and post-cruise in France. I don't seem to find too much on this topic. If anyone has info they would like to share it would be much appreciated. This is our 6th river traveling with AMA and have been very pleased with their product. Thank you!
