Dining on the Amadeus Nova is a highlight of the journey, featuring a blend of fine international cuisine and authentic local dishes. Guests enjoy a full-board meal plan that includes buffet-style breakfasts and lunches, complemented by elegant set-menu dinners in the Panorama Restaurant.

Shore excursions & land activities
The Amadeus Nova focuses on immersive land-based exploration rather than underwater activities.

These excursions are led by knowledgeable local guides who provide deep insights into the history, architecture, and traditions of the regions visited. For those seeking a more active experience, the ship offers opportunities for cycling along the riverbanks and gentle kayaking in select areas. The pace of these activities is designed to be accessible, allowing guests to choose between leisurely strolls and more energetic explorations depending on their preference and fitness level.

How do I get to the cruise ship?
Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary. Some operators arrange airport pickup, group flights or transfers; check your booking confirmation and travel voucher for what is included. We recommend arriving in the gateway city at least one day before departure, unless your operator provides different instructions.

Pack breathable layers, a sun hat and sun protection for warm regions; for colder or wetter conditions, add warm layers and a waterproof, windproof jacket. Check the operator's packing list for landing footwear, any supplied equipment and specific requirements.
