Glide along Colombia’s majestic Magdalena River aboard the luxurious Ama Magdalena—a boutique 60‑passenger river ship that blends modern elegance, immersive cultural excursions, and scenic river vistas into an unforgettable weeklong journey.
Set sail for seven nights through Colombia’s lush interior, traveling between Cartagena and Barranquilla (or vice versa) along the storied Magdalena River. Along the way, you’ll visit colonial towns, riverbank villages, and historic sites — all enhanced by expert-led shore excursions, cultural encounters, and on‑board comfort.
The AmaMagdalena is designed for intimate travel: with just 30 staterooms and a capacity of 60 guests, the ship offers spacious amenities like twin‑balcony rooms, a heated pool, wellness facilities, and elegant dining.
From the first morning until the final evening cocktail, guests enjoy regionally inspired Latin American cuisine and an immersive itinerary full of local color.
You’ll get more than a river cruise — it’s a curated Colombian cultural journey. With included excursions each day, foodie experiences, wellness amenities, and a high staff-to-guest ratio, every moment is crafted to deliver depth, comfort, and discovery.
