AmaPrima Wiki

The APT AmaPrima is the fourth vessel in the newest generation of AmaWaterways’ Concerto-class river cruise ships. Her sisterships include AmaBella, AmaCerto, AmaReina, AmaSerena, AmaSonata, AmaVerde, and AmaVenita. This new design introduces the signature "Twin Balcony" accommodations, which combine a traditional French balcony with a second, covered step-out veranda for use in all weather conditions.

Each of these riverboats is powered by two Caterpillar marine diesel engines (model C32 DITA ACERT V-12) with a combined output of 1900 kW / 2550 HP.

The vessel’s hull and superstructure were constructed at the Vahali Shipyard in Belgrade, Serbia. Vahali Shipyard, founded in 1923, is a Dutch shipbuilding company (Scheepswerf En Machinefabriek Vahali BV) that operates facilities in Serbia (Belgrade and Zasavica) and in the Netherlands (Gendt). The Zasavica shipyard officially opened in 2013. Following construction in Serbia, AmaPrima was towed to the Netherlands for final outfitting at Scheepswerf Vahali in Gendt.

The AmaPrima was launched on August 6, 2013, and christened in Vilshofen, Germany, by godmother Valerie Wilson, founder, chairman, and CEO of Valerie Wilson Travel—an NYC-based agency specializing in leisure, corporate, and cruise travel.

The name "AmaPrima" shares its naming tradition with other cruise liners such as AIDAprima (built in 2016) and Norwegian Prima (built in 2022).

All AmaWaterways ships offer complimentary bicycles, stored on the sundeck, for use during guided shore excursions at each port of call.
