Abercrombie & Kent’s Amadeus Nova sets a new benchmark for sophisticated river cruising, offering an exclusive experience reserved for a maximum of 24 A&K guests. While the ship welcomes travelers from multiple organizations, those booked with A&K enjoy a fully curated, elevated journey designed solely for their small group. Dedicated A&K Tour Managers, personalized service, and handcrafted itineraries ensure that every moment feels private, seamless, and distinctly A&K.
The Amadeus Nova itself is one of the most innovative river vessels in Europe—featuring elegant, energy-efficient design, expansive panoramic windows, serene lounges, and refined dining venues. A&K guests benefit from priority arrangements, enhanced programming, and thoughtfully organized shore excursions that highlight the culture, cuisine, and history of each destination in exceptional depth.
This tailored small-group experience—embedded within a modern, beautifully engineered ship—creates a boutique-style journey that blends intimacy, comfort, and A&K’s signature attention to detail.
