Colors of Provence Wine Cruise
April 2–9, 2026

Savor Spring in Provence: A Sensory River Journey
What’s better than exploring Provence in the spring? Exploring it through the river — with a glass of wine in hand and your senses fully awakened.
I’m thrilled to invite you to join me for the Colors of Provence Wine Cruise, a 7-night sailing with Ama Waterways that promises to stir your senses, awaken your palate, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
As a fine Wine Curator, Wine Educator, and yachting insider who spends much of the year serving private clients along the Mediterranean, I’ll be your group leader, guide, and storyteller. I’ll take you beyond the typical tourist tastings and bring you into the rhythm, culture, and flavor of Provence — the way only someone who truly knows the region can.
This isn’t just a cruise. It’s a chance to reconnect with yourself, your senses, and the soul of Provence.
Let’s sip, savor, and explore the region I call my second home — Together.

Wine Immersion
Savor exquisite local wines from Côtes du Rhône to Beaujolais and immerse yourself in the art wine tasting with guided experiences.

Culinary Excellence
Master the art of pairing wine with food, as you enjoy specially crafted dinning experiences perfectly pair with local wines on board.

Spring in Provence
Provence in spring is beautiful. The landscape bursts with wildflowers, cherry blossoms, and the soft light that inspired countless artists.
We will explore onboard
Ama Kristina
