About the Magdalena
The longest river in Colombia at 1000 miles in length, the Magdalena is perhaps the country’s most important too. Historically a vital trade and communication link between the Andes and the Caribbean Sea, it has served as a major transport route for centuries.
Now, that same route is set to become a significant part of your not-too-distant travel plans. Onboard one of AmaWaterways two ships, you’ll immerse yourself in the rich culture and natural beauty that has long astounded people from around the world.
An unforgettable region, the Magdalena moves to the sound of more than 1000 styles of music, wows with its military architecture, historic cities and natural parks, and treats nature lovers to the sights of hummingbirds, pink dolphins and vast amounts of other exotic wildlife.
With Indigenous, European and African ancestry taking root decade after decade, the diversity among its people and culture makes the Magdalena an experience like no other – spend just a few minutes at its Carnaval celebration, and you’ll soon see what we mean.
You’ll be able to experience all of this, and more, as part of the country’s first cruises with AmaWaterways.
