AmaMagdalena

AmaWaterways is reveling in the success of being pioneers in the Colombia luxury river cruise market, with the US-based company driven by the destination’s vibrant culture, rich biodiversity, unique product and potential route expansion.

In a landmark event for both river cruising and Colombian tourism, AmaWaterways officially christened its newest ship, AmaMagdalena, on Tuesday in the UNESCO-designated city of Mompox.

The launch of AmaWaterways’ AmaMagdalena, the first-ever luxury river cruise ship to sail the Magdalena River in Colombia, marks a major milestone for the river cruise company.

AmaWaterways’ highly-anticipated, luxury river cruising world-first operation in Colombia, South America, was launched last weekend.

Departures of AmaWaterways’ new Colombia river cruise have sold out until the end of May, Co-Owner Greg Murphy has revealed ahead of the new itinerary’s launch on 15 March.

AmaWaterways has confirmed a further two-month delay for the already revised launch of its inaugural sailing in Colombia aboard AmaMagdalena, most recently slated to debut in January 2025. The first of two purpose-built ships for the new market was originally intended to launch in December 2023.

AmaWaterways has confirmed the delay of its launch in Colombia on the Magdalena River by two months, with the first of two ships set to now debut in January 2025.

AmaWaterways has confirmed it will launch two vessels on Colombia’s Magdalena River when it debuts its program in just over 12 months’ time.

AmaWaterways has unveiled plans to launch a new custom-built, all-suite river ship in Colombia, South America.
