DCS Amethyst

Founded in Germany in 1985 the fleet of DCS Touristik now consists of eight river cruise ships. The tour operator specializes in high-quality bus-ship combinations. The program includes group tours, river cruises, event tours, city trips, wellness trips and musical travels. The ships operate mainly on the rivers Main, Rhine and Danube and with some exceptions also Volga and Nile.

With its very good price-performance ratio, the Amethyst is recommended for those who want to take a relaxed journey on the Danube. At a length of about 127 m the DSC Amethyst can accommodate up to 178 passengers. Language on board is German.

Spread over two levels and with a glass dome, the atrium underscores the light-flooded ambience of the ship.

The café with reading area is also located in the front area of the upper deck. Changing evening events such as the crew show, the quiz or the pirate evening ensure good entertainment on board. Daily live music underlines the ambience.

Culinary delights await you in the beautiful panorama restaurant, where all guests can comfortably sit down at one table time. The Viennese Café offers delicious coffees while you can enjoy a drink at the bar on the panoramic deck. On the day of embarkation you can reserve your table in the restaurant for the duration of the entire cruise. The menu includes international specialties as well as typical dishes of the countries along the route.

For your relaxation and sports activities, a Jacuzzi and fitness equipment are available. The Wellness area is located in the bow of the ship and available over the whole season. The large sundeck offers plenty of sun loungers to enjoy the river landscape.

The cruise line offers optional bookable shore excursions, which are adapted to the respective length of stay in the port. City walks or scenic drives invite you to discover all the beautiful places along the river course.
