Hello and welcome,
I’m Lauren Demarest, founder of Sweat Vacay and CEO of Sweat Vacay. After the incredible success of our 2025 Greek Isles Food, Wine & Wellness Cruise, we’re thrilled to expand our group cruise offerings for 2026.
Our new concept, Sweat Vacay@Sea, combines our exclusive small-group experiences—exceptional cuisine and private tours—with the thrill of fitness and wellness, and the unparalleled luxury and excitement of ultra-premium and luxury cruises.
Whether you joined us in Greece or followed along from afar, thank you. Your enthusiasm and feedback have inspired us to go even further. For 2026, we’re offering a distinct cruise experience.
New for 2026 -

And for those travelers who share a deep appreciation for all things that bloom and grow.
Our detailed itinerary is available below.
AmaDante is a study in understated elegance, adorned in a regal theme of blues and golds that enhance the natural beauty of the Seine River landscapes just outside your stateroom. Most accommodations include a French balcony, so you’ll never miss a vineyard, steeple, or castle, even when relaxing in your elegantly-appointed stateroom. Every moment at leisure is a treat on AmaDante, whether you’re rejuvenating in the sauna or whirlpool, indulging in a massage or haircut, meeting new friends in the inviting Main Lounge, working out in the fitness room, taking a lap on the sun-deck walking track, or crafting your daily java at the specialty coffee station. As the premier cruise line to offer a fleet of complimentary bikes, we’re pleased to offer the same on AmaDante, so you’ll enjoy exhilarating guided biking tours from ship to shore throughout Europe.
THE LUXURY OF SPACE - FEWER GUESTS ON BOARD
Spacious and uncrowded, AmaWaterways' award-winning fleet offers elegantly appointed staterooms and suites, welcoming fewer guests than many traditional river cruise ships.
The AmaDante sails with only 140 guests, allowing you to experience the luxury of more space and service.
Inviting Public Spaces
You can enjoy the luxury of space to unwind, relax, and reconnect with your loved ones. Our public areas, including lounges and restaurants, are never overcrowded.
UNPACK ONCE: A SEAMLESS EXPERIENCE
Step aboard and unpack once aboard one of AmaWaterways' luxury ships that transport you from one destination to the next. With AmaWaterways, every day is a “see” day as you cruise through grand capitals and charming towns. AmaWaterways ships dock near city centers, meaning you can step right off the ship and explore.
AWARD-WINNING INCLUDED DINING EXPERIENCES
With membership in the internationally recognized La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, and Tables et Auberges de France, AmaWaterways takes pride in preparing exquisite, regionally inspired cuisine using locally sourced ingredients. You can also enjoy complimentary hand-selected wines and local beers during every lunch and dinner on board.
UNPARALLELED PERSONALIZED SERVICE
Extraordinary Cruise Managers and crew continuously go above and beyond to enhance the onboard experience, surprising and delighting AmaWaterways guests with thoughtful details, getting to know you personally and anticipating your needs before you ever have to ask.

The Jet-Set Era and the Allure of Travel inspire the partnership between Sweat Vacay and Elemental Travel. In the 1960s and ’70s, the Greek islands emerged as the playground of the elite—where icons like Aristotle and Jackie Onassis helped transform Mykonos into a symbol of effortless glamour, artistic freedom, and sun-soaked sophistication.
(Yes, in the photo, that is Elizabeth Taylor (on left) and Aristotle Onassis (center)
Our inaugural Sweatvacay@Sea cruise through these legendary isles paid homage to that golden age, offering Sweat Vacay and Elemental Travel’s VIP clients a curated blend of wellness, culture, and jet-set elegance.
Now, we’re raising the bar again—this time with a chic French river cruise aboard AmaWaterways’ Impressions of the Seine & Paris. It’s a new chapter in our signature experience: intimate, elevated, and inspired by the timeless spirit of the"jet-set" age.
Ready to join us? This exclusive Sweatvacay@Sea experience combines elevated service, curated wellness, and the timeless charm of France. We’ll be sailing aboard the elegant AmaDante on the Impressions of the Seine & Paris itinerary, with only a limited number of staterooms available.
Don’t wait—secure your place now and be part of this unforgettable journey.
