About Us

Jessica Freidly: I was lucky enough to study abroad during college, and making my way around Europe during school breaks introduced me to travel planning. I enjoy the challenge of finding just the right itinerary for my clients, from solo travelers to large groups!

While I can book many types of travel, one of my favorites is river cruising. I fell in love with river cruising when I first sailed through the south of France with AmaWaterways several years ago. It’s a wonderful way to travel because you can experience several different cities―in many cases, different countries―while your hotel room sails with you.

River Cruising

Visit bustling capital cities and tiny villages alike on a river cruise journey along rivers all over the world. Their small size means that they can venture to places that large cruise ships can’t reach, allowing you to discover the hidden treasures in ports along the river.

You’ll See cityscapes and countrysides that take your breath away.

You’ll Experience new places, fascinating history and local traditions.

You’ll Indulge in gourmet meals and luxurious accommodations.

The Danube
The beautiful Danube is the longest river in Central and Western Europe, connecting eight countries. Naturally, it is also one of the most-cruised rivers, as it flows through four national capitals, giving you the perfect opportunity to dive into several different cultures. Whether you plan to sightsee in cities or explore historic villages, you’ll find everything you’re looking for.

The Rhine
Raise a glass of Riesling to a Rhine River cruise through Switzerland, Germany and The Netherlands. See how the Rhine river unfolds to create a spellbinding display of storybook villages, Dutch windmills, castles, German vineyards and Gothic cities.

The Duoro
Known for its famous wine region, rich culture, inspiring art, unspoiled natural scenery, and enticing cuisine Portugal has been a popular destination for centuries. There is no better way to discover its heart than from the river that breathes life into its villages and picturesque cities.

The Rhône, Seine & Saône
From captivating cities to countrysides that capture the essence of French culture and traditions, you’ll find joie de vivre around each bend. Be it the Rhône, Seine or Saône, France’s rivers reveal some of the world’s most celebrated locales: majestic Bordeaux, gastronomic Lyon, historic Normandy, picturesque Provence and elegant Paris.

The Mekong
Explore the cultures and histories of the cities, towns and villages that reside along the banks of the Mekong river. Sail between Cambodia and Vietnam, and enjoy breath-taking views of floating canal villages, verdant paddy fields and picturesque islands. With six different countries to discover along the Mekong, you’ll find incredible experiences in every port.

The Nile
Cruising down the Nile, you’ll discover ancient wonders and magnificent treasures in every port. Whether you’d like to visit King Tutankhamun in Cairo or the Great Pyramids in Giza, there’s something for every adventurer. Between the obelisks and temples, you’ll also discover vibrant cultures along the Nile, with thousands of years of history just waiting to be uncovered.

The Ganges
The Ganges slowly courses through one of the world’s most fertile and populated areas. Between dramatic temple complexes, richly spiced cuisine, the picturesque Pink City, and the majestic Taj Mahal, India has no shortage of wonders to uncover. Immerse yourself in the sacred and timeless traditions of the ages.

The Mississippi
Let the classic American riverboat transport you to new adventures — and back in time. Follow the currents of the Mississippi Delta that have inspired storytellers and creators. Strains of blues and jazz fill the air and the flavors of Southern cooking comfort the soul.
