This was our first river cruise and we loved it! We found it totally different from an ocean cruise and enjoyed the smaller setting. Cruising the Danube, we visited Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, Germany and Czech Republic. (Stayed in a hotel in Prague 2 nights). We stayed in a Panorama Suite with a full wall of glass sliders that allow you to watch the world go by from your bed. This was a really ...
I wanted to see Budapest and Vienna but I ended up enjoying the smaller cities along the way. our ship, which was supposed to be a year old was swapped for a ship that was over 10 years old. We were stranded on shore two times because of problems with the ship. I did not know how exhausting the touring would be, especially in 90 degree heat.
Those days we were not allowed on the ship I might ...
We chose Avalon this time because they did not require COVID vaccinations. We booked the cruise over the phone. We said we wanted to fly back 9 days after the cruise ended and were told that was not possible and that we would need to book our own flights back. When we called 3 days later and spoke with someone else, we found out that that was just fine but that we needed to pay $90 each for the ...
We had sailed on Avalon 8 years ago and since they have upgraded their food to a A from a B+ i We had a suite which was huge for a River Boat but even the regular rooms had a set up that made you feel like you were out on a balcony the entire time. There were floor to ceiling triple sliders and with the bed facing the windows it really opened up the room. The itinerary was excellent and they ...
When thinking through how to summarize the amazing week I just experienced on my Avalon cruise I figured I would share some of the highlights that made this cruise memorable! The Avalon crew knew me by name! The meals, where you could experience local favorites while trying the included wine and beer for lunch and dinner. The stateroom is filled with your closest friends and new companions you met ...
This was our first, but not out last, river cruise. My husband and I loved everything about cruising with Avalon. It's interesting to hear people talk about other lines. We would choose Avalon again without hesitating.
The service was GREAT.
We might go for an upper cabin next time. It's true that you don't spend so much time in your room, but I did not realize that the room would be below ...
This was our first time to Europe. It was truly amazing. I never had an idea on how old some of the sites were and the history of the area.
Prague was our first stop and was an amazing city. We went on the walking tour and learned so much from the history of Prague.
We boarded the ship in Nuremberg and was greeted by a very friendly crew and easy cabin assignment. What was so nice was the ...
We chose this trip based on recommendation of a friend who planned to go but didn’t book in time. It was absolutely great. Exceeded every expectation. The ship was wonderful, our cruise director, Mauro, fantastic and the staff especially Bianco could not be more accommodating. Super! The AvalonGO app is the best yet. It was so good to be able to take pictures and make notes at the time ...
The cabin on the ship was very good.Lots of room.Great bathroom.Loved the sliding door to view the outside.The food was good and the service was very good.Not much entertainment.Unless you were in a port there was nothing going on as far as activities,We did enjoy having bikes to ride .The tours and port stops were a lot shorter than we thought they would be.The guides were very good.We were ...
Avalon river cruise is absolutely the way to go. Avalon is a first class river cruise line at very reasonable prices. The ship is beautiful, with glass french door walls that open to give you a view of the river, local towns and castles. This was our first river cruise and we traveled with 25 friends and family. Taking a river cruise with friends and family is the way to go, sharing every ...
