Happy Thanksgiving from the AmaPura

They say there’s no place like home for the holidays.

But for those of us in travel, home can take on an exotic, faraway form.

I’m writing this blog from Myanmar, where we’re launching a beautiful new ship and thrilling itinerary. Our new all-suite AmaPura will cruise the Ayeyarwady River through an ancient land only recently reopened to outsiders.

Myanmar is the newest chapter in our AmaWaterways story. I look forward to telling you much more about this wondrous land of temples, pagodas and golden stupas.

As we cruise from Yangon to Mandalay and legendary Bagan; I’ll think of family, friends and colleagues back home. We’ve so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving week!

Whether you are here on the Ayeyarwady, or the Danube, Rhine, Mekong or Chobe: thank you for spending this holiday week with us. In Europe, you’ll find our chefs working especially hard to prepare a home-style Thanksgiving dinner on board. It’s our way of thanking you for your loyalty and repeat business.

You’re the reason success has taken us from Europe to Africa and Southeast Asia. And we have so much more yet in store for you on the greatest rivers of the world. 

Thank you for taking the journey with us.

Regardless of destination, ship or itinerary, remember one thing. You may be far away. But with AmaWaterways, you’re always at home.
