Adora

The German tour operator Phoenix Reisen was founded in 1973. In 1988 they started cruising the oceans with the charter of the ship Maxim Gorki. Starting as a pure ocean shipping company, Phoenix Reisen expanded its range in 1993 to include the popular river cruises. The four well-known ocean liners are now joined by more than 30 river ships as well as a few smaller ships for exceptional destinations. The shipping company is still in family hands and attaches great importance to a friendly and pleasant atmosphere aboard their ships.

The stylish new build MS Adora sets new standards in comfort and elegance on a river cruise ship. Large, light-flooded and stylishly furnished staterooms, mostly with French balcony, invite to relaxation and recreation and provide a pleasant ambience on board. On three passenger decks up to 190 guests can be accommodated in 78 spacious staterooms with double occupancy.

Like on all Phoenix ships, the atmosphere aboard the MS Adora is cosy and casual, with a touch of elegance and luxury. The dress code on board is casual. At the traditional captain's dinner a more elegant wardrobe is expected, but formal clothing is not needed here either. Regional events, live music and light entertainment will make your trip to a great holiday. Due to the fact that the tour operator is a German company the onboard language is German and guests pay their bills in Euro.

Look forward to a rich breakfast buffet as well as multi-course lunches and dinners with regional and international specialties. The well-trained kitchen and service team will spoil you with all the amenities the kitchen can offer. On request, meals can also be prepared gluten-free, lactose-free or diabetic-friendly. Theme nights, afternoon coffee/tea with cakes and/or pastries and a midnight snack complete the culinary offer on board the MS Adora. In addition, on many voyages there is the traditional captain's reception and the captain's dinner with a festive menu.

Aboard a selection of books, board and card games is available. Regular events, music programs or lectures are offered, which may vary according to the destination. From the spacious sun deck, with loungers, seating facilities and shuffle board, you have a beautiful view of the passing river landscape.

Through a variety of shore excursions, you have the opportunity to get to know the country and its people along the river. The excursion program is adapted to the berthing times and is accompanied by qualified tour guides. The excursions are usually in German language. The shore excursions can be booked directly on board or partly online in advance.

If you want to travel comfortably and elegantly on the Danube and value a luxurious but familiar environment, you are just right aboard the MS Adora.
