A big part of any river cruise, especially with AMA, is the fantastic gourmet food and wine. Every meal is a celebration that is elegantly presented - delicious and varied with multiple small tasting courses and lovely wines.
Once on every cruise, each guest is also treated to an exclusive tasting menu at the Chef's Table restaurant, an intimate setting with a creative menu.
We opted to go to the Chef's Table to celebrate my birthday. This was an incredible way to celebrate, though I fear I couldn't do justice to the thoughtful birthday cake they prepared after all the other delightful food.
In addition to 5 star cuisine, food became an activity onboard with gingerbread decorating and even a presentation on making traditional apple strudel to pass the time on one of our cruising days.
Excellent travel advice and service
This is my second experience working with Adventure Life. I’m sold. Jess Heuermann is an experienced traveler and provides a lot of useful information when planning a trip. These are the questions I like to ask at the outset - What’s it like to go here, there, what would you suggest, what do people report, can we add any additional side trips? Jess took the time to answer my questions and seek additional information to share with me. Petchie Colina is outstanding in helping with travel logistics and final preparations. Adventure Life has excellent guides and offers private guides and small group adventures. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk with the guides and drivers to learn more about their countries, cultures and histories. A highlight was having the guides pick local restaurants where we could share meals together. Highly recommend.

Our six-day tour in Iceland went smoothly with one exception. We had asked for two rooms each night. Somehow we were booked with one room with three beds. It could not be fixed at the first hotel in Reykjavik because the hotel was fully booked. Once informed of the problem, however, Adventure Life rebooked for two rooms for the remainder of the trip. As an 85-year-old traveler, I appreciated that one could participate at different physical levels at many of the stops. Iceland is a great place to visit but on the expensive side.

Jess was very easy going and answered all our questions. It’s not easy dealing with 6 people at once but she did an outstanding job!

Kassandra and the Adventure Life team have been incredible! Kassandra was very knowledgeable and attentive to our asks while making sure we kept within our budget. This was our first experience with a travel agent and we were blown away by the booking/initial exploration service. We will use Adventure Life again.
