After her launch, AmaLyra quickly earned a "Best New River Cruise Ship" distinction in comfort and style. Perhaps it was because of the scenery afforded by the ship's French balconies, or because of the exquisite cuisine served by the Main Restaurant and in a delightful, multi-course production as part of The Chef's Table experience.
