Sail Date: Dec 2016
Cabin: Outside Stateroom with French Balcony

I am a solo traveller -- I like to be safe and looked after. Avalon knows how to do this in style. The suites are roomy with a lot of storage area and huge floor to ceiling windows. The room is large as they don't have the wasted space of a balcony .. you can open the window wide and that eliminates the need of a balcony. The beds are so very comfortable and the bathroom is roomy.

The tours were great -- and the amount of time spent in each port was adequate. There were a couple of stops that I would have appreciated more time -- but there was a schedule the needed to be adhered to.

The meals were good -- and if I didn't like something on the menu there was always the standard meals that I could choose. I must admit that I loved the steak and baked potato -- so had that often instead of trying something else!

Cabin Review

Outside Stateroom with French Balcony

Cabin P

Absolutely Wonderful! And the beds -- oh so very comfy! The bathroom was spacious. There was enough storage and the seating area meant I didn't always have to sit on the bed.

Port Reviews

Budapest

Great overview of the city.

Bratislava

This was a hidden jewel of the cruise. I loved this city -- I knew nothing about it but the tour was great -- then we had free time that allowed me to walk through the old town and enjoy all that it had to offer.

Passau

The tour guide was amazing ... I never realized what a centre of civilization Passau was!

Regensburg

Walking tour through the old town.

Wurzburg

The tour of the Palace was enthralling. Also, walking through this centre -- with enough free time to get a real feel for it was great.

Rudesheim

These musical instruments were truly amazing.

Amsterdam

Quite the city!

Bamberg

What a great town -- with so much history.

Nuremberg

I only went on the old city tour -- I had taken the Nuremberg Trial tour before and decided I didn't want to take it this time.

Vienna

What a Palace!
