Flavors of Portugal & Spain - Taste of Christmas
The Iberian Peninsula in festive form, this 7-night sailing runs from Porto to Vega de Terrón. Seasonal specialties, Christmas traditions rooted in both Portuguese and Spanish culture, and the golden winter light of the Douro Valley make a warm and memorable holiday escape.
Why travelers choose AmaWaterways
“It was also really nice that the tours had built-in free time so that we could do some things just for our kids. Europe is so family-friendly; we always felt the kids were welcome – especially at the Christmas Markets, which are designed for families.”
“Ama goes above and beyond to make the holiday season special aboard, and its wonderful to be able to celebrate, be taken care of, and feel like I’ve done something special for myself all at the same time. I can’t recommend it enough!”
“We found this type of cruise so much more enjoyable than any of the large ocean cruises we have been on. You have the chance to get to know your fellow cruisers and make new friends. This was our first river cruise but will not be the last on Ama Waterways.”
