We chose this cruise because it featured both the Rhine Valley and the Moselle river and was for 11 days. We included a 2 day extension in Basel where we have friends, so it was an ideal itinerary. Both rivers are extremely scenic and we had some lovely stops including Trier, Cochem, Strasbourg, Bernkastel, Koblenz, Spayer etc. Most sightseeing tours, which were of a good quality, were included ...

We had an absolutely great time on our Avalon Riverboat Cruise! Everyone, every single staff member on the Tranquillity II (June 21-28) was amazing! Their customer service was impeccable, sincere and timely! Will definitely be booking again! We would highly recommend Avalon Waterways to our friends and family. We went from Amsterdam to Middleburg to Ghent to Brussels to Antwerp to Rotterdam and ...

Avalon was amazing! All of the staff from housekeeping to our cruise director were personal, and got to know us. The kitchen staff took extra time to meet special dietary needs of 2 members of our traveling group. We can not possibly describe how delicious our meals were, all of them! We loved that we got to try local cuisine right in board our ship. Our cruise director Tony was so incredibly fun! ...

I wanted a more intimate cruise. The thought of going on a ship with 4000 other people gives me the creeps. We were able to connect with and get to know people from around the world including the ships crew. The crew was lovely by the way. One of the wait staff was a wonderful young woman from Ukraine who we bonded with almost immediately. The service was superb and we felt like we were pampered. ...

We chose this cruise because it covered many of the places in Europe that we wanted to see. It is also great that our hotel room traveled with us from place to place. The Tour guides were all excellent and so knowledgeable. Some of them pointed out things they thought the other tour guides might not mention. There was always a great selection of food for Breakfast, lunch and Dinner. The ...

This was our first river cruise, we chose Avalon, because of their windows and views, we have came across a lot of other boats during this river cruise, and all of them had very little windows so very little views. I am looking forward to numerous trips with Avalon all over the world. Staff was spectacular. Food was the best I’ve ever had, I have nothing bad to say about Avalon can’t wait to go on ...

This was our first river cruise and it was amazing!! The service was 5 star. Food was yummy and many options, even for someone who is picky like me. We had several minor bumps along the road, and Avalon corrected them before anyone could even ask. Their customer service was spectacular. We liked that there were several different walking speeds for each tour… from brisk to gentle walkers. The ...

We chose this cruise because we have friends that had already signed up. We had always wanted to do a river cruise and were unfamiliar with Avalon. However, we found Avalon to be an excellent river cruise company. They had very good communication and were definitely focused on safety. One nice feature was their GoAvalon app on our phones that helped keep us up to date on the itinerary. We had ...

Went on a Fall Rhine River cruise that started in Amsterdam and ended in Basel. It was a fantastic experience. Stopped at many interesting ports where we saw and experienced so much. You definitely aren't bored as there are so many stops and excursions planned. Wouldn't call this a relaxing vacation, as we were exhausted afterwards, but we didn't expect that either. We knew we would be ...

Long journey from New Zealand, with High expectations of Avalon from Travel Agents. Fresh Food didn't arrive before leaving Amsterdam so meals were often AVERAGE. we are not that fussy, but compared to other trips ....food was not up to standard. Our Ship was switched to Avalon Artistry 2, at the last minute...with no explanation why. Purchased top deck for better views, but told ...
