This post is an invitation to experience a Luxury European River cruise with Lynn & Robert Belles! This is cruise number 40 for us, but the first on a European River! We are taking a break from Architect-ing to visit Old-World Europe to cruise the Danube River beneath castles and towering fortresses. We will be sailing on AmaWaterways - Ama Viola - as your Distinctive Voyage Hosts.

As an exclusive Distinctive Voyage, if booked through Planning To Cruise, [affiliate link] you will receive a complimentary private welcome reception and an exclusive shore event. The shore event will be while in Vienna, you will have a luxurious afternoon of heritage and indulgence to Klosterneuburg Abbey. Celebrated as Austria’s oldest wine estate and one of its foremost wine producers, this 900-year-old Abbey offers an unparalleled journey through history and flavor.
We have always admired the AmaWaterways brand because the Co-Founder and CEO Rudi Schreiner first studied architecture, but his even greater love of travel drew him to places far and wide... like us.. We love the design of the ships with their European Modern Decor and this sailing is Rudi's personal best of pick for 2025! I mean I trust that this guy has good taste!
As your cruise hosts Rob and Lynn Belles will be onboard and available to assist you in any way we can throughout the journey.. That's what "Travel With an Architect" means..
