We booked late for a River Cruise with Avalon, leaving Vilshofen on October 24th. We flew to Munich, then made our own transfer arrangements to the boat, the Envision. It was a first river cruise for us & once on the boat, it was sheer luxury! From the moment we stepped out of our taxi and were told to leave our cases for the crew, this set the tone for the whole trip. The staff, the ...

This is my second Avalon river cruise and it was amazing. The crew in every department we interacted with were friendly and showed a genuine interest in making our trip a great experience. The food was delicious, plentiful and presented beautifully. The service team was very observant of our dietary needs and kept our glasses full. There are beverage available day and night and you will ...

As we were celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary, we started thinking about taking a trip. We got together with two other couples and as one person did not want to do an ocean cruise, we started researching river cruises. We found that Avalon had great reviews and we decided to take a chance and book the trip. We took two years to plan/pay for our cruise and it was really nice that we had ...

We had never been on a cruise of any kind before. My husband wasn’t fond of going on a sea cruise so we opted last minute for this river cruise with Avalon, one of the best decisions we’ve made in many years as it turned out! We were impressed with the customer focussed organisation and service provided by Avalon and its members of staff. To achieve such seamlessness indicates that this ...

We booked this river cruise one month out for October. Not sure we would even be able to get a room. Our travel agent (Affordable Tours) found us one on the Avalon line. We had room and worried that it was not a good spot, being as it was the first one). It turned out to be a great location. Next to the main lobby and restaurants. He had us go a week later for a great cruise rate. The ...

Our travel agent suggested Avalon to us. It was our first cruise as we had never had any interest in an ocean cruise. We stayed two nights in Zurich precruise and one night in Amsterdam at the end. We had the pre and post hotel rooms booked through Avalon. Transfers were included except the last one back to the airport in Amsterdam. We were booked at the Raddison Blue at Zurich airport and ...

This was our first time taking a cruse so we wanted to avoid all the hustle of a large cruise ship and too many people. We chose the Avalon waterways cruise because it was an American based company and easy to work with. We did book through Vacations to Go and received a discount. Overall, between Avalon and Vacations to Go, everything was covered in the overall process of booking the cruise and ...
