In a move AmaWaterways says shows its “deepening commitment to the New Zealand market”, Tracey Brennan has been appointed as its first Aotearoa/NZ-based Regional Sales Manager.
AmaWaterways says Brennan’s appointment is a key milestone for the luxury river cruise line, which only launched in the Australian and New Zealand markets in early 2024.
Brennan will be based in NZ’s largest city, Auckland and will be responsible for “strengthening relationships with travel partners throughout New Zealand and driving growth across the brand’s river cruise portfolio”.

AmaWaterways AU/NZ Managing Director Steve Richards says, “Having only launched in Australia and New Zealand a little over a year ago, we are thrilled to be able to announce Tracey Brennan as our first-ever New Zealand-based salesperson”.
“Tracey’s experience and contacts will be invaluable to us as we continue to grow our presence in this key market.
“Tracey’s appointment is a testament to how much we value the Kiwi business and want to support them in growing their river cruise sales.”

Brennan says she’s thrilled to be joining the luxury river cruise line and continuing to share her passion for river cruising.
“The incredible and diverse itineraries spanning some of the most iconic rivers across the globe provide truly unforgettable experiences that I’m proud to represent.
“I want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the trade for their ongoing support — it means the world to me as I embark on this exciting new journey.”
Tracey will start her new role on 23 June.
