First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

I did a lot of research before we chose to sail with Avalon and I am so glad we did. We opted for the 2 days in Lucerne before the cruise and that was a great choice. I can't say enough about how wonderful the entire trip was from beginning to end. Starting with our hotels in Lucerne and Basel to the ease of the airport transfer from the boat in Amsterdam to the airport. The boat was ...

I traveled with my mother and this was my first ever river cruise experience. We had such a lovely time. The crew was absolutely amazing. we really enjoyed meeting and speaking with them as they were all so nice and helpful. The housekeepers were fantastic and kept the rooms looking great. We enjoyed all the waiters/waitresses at meal times. They were very attentive and answered any and every ...

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 ...

This river cruise was our 5th with Avalon and we have never been disappointed. The ship was really nice and the cabin comfortable and well appointed. We love that the entire side of the cabin facing the river was all glass so that you get a full view of the scenery as you sail along, and that the bed faces the window. The bathroom, while small (as expected), was quite workable and beautifully ...

This was our first river cruise vacation and after this cruise it will not be our last. It was more than I expected. Everyone was friendly, helpful and cheerful. The food was spectacular but not wasteful, we were given just enough with a variety. Every day was different and exciting. The entertainment at night was entertaining and just enough time. Every day at 4:00 was coffee and desserts..which ...

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 ...

Not quite the hype

Not quite what they sell. The upgrade to the full slider window for an extra $1500 (base for a solo fee was $6000) for 7 nights was pretty much worthless. For 5 nights we were parked 3 deep with other ships, so you could not keep your curtain open unless you wanted the other boat to see you. One night we left at midnight... you could see the river edge then... but, we were asleep. The first ...

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. ...
