Our first river cruise
"After many ocean cruises my wife and I decided to join our friends on our first river cruise.Unlike the large ocean cruise liners, the small passenger contingent made this cruise very relaxing with no need to compete for space anywhere on board or securing a spot on the many informative and scenic shore excursions...."Read More

We chose Avalon 3 years ago, right before Covid started and originally were going to cruise the Rhine. Re-booked for 2022, we both got Covid a week before the cruise and could not go. However, Avalon gave us another year to use our credit - amazing, as we didn't purchase travel insurance. We switched to the Danube River cruise because it fit our schedule best. Everything surpassed our ...

We were initially searching for a Danube river cruise company (our dream vacation for over a decade) that did not present any unnecessary obstacles such as vaccination cards, etc...(Kudos to Avalon for trusting its travelers to be responsible and in preserving their privacy!)
We finally settled on Avalon based on weeks of research and reading reviews.
Where do I start?

My wife and I are seasoned ocean cruisers but this was our first river cruise. I really wasn’t sure if I would like being on a much smaller ship on a river. I read lots of the reviews before the cruise and convinced myself that this was going to be good. I was right. Everything they said would happen did. The plane landed in Budapest and sure enough we were met and transferred to the ship with no ...

The ship, itinerary, staff, drink variety, and cleanliness were all great.
The wifi quality and access needs improving. The shore excursions weren't always clearly or accurately described, especially with respect to key sights to be seen, and the terrain and level of exertion required (we had a couple of tough hikes that some guests definitely should not have been on). Entertainment was a bit ...

This cruise was our second on Avalon. The first was the Rhine which was spectacular- both industrial and the beauty of the castles along the Rhine. This cruise was more culture in nature and did not disappoint. The activities are diverse enough for everyone’s palate. However, what is outstanding is the service that you get on board. We are new to river cruising - but not ocean cruising. This is ...

My mom booked this cruise for my sister and I to join her, and it was amazing. We enjoyed the tours through Budapest, Austria, Germany and Prague. Each stop was unique and beautiful along the way; the views through the river were stunning without a dull moment. We did have to alter the planned trip a bit due to low river levels, but the crew handled it amazingly. Communication was clear and ...

This was our second cruise with Avalon and they met our very high expectations again. We went from Budapest to Passau, a one week cruise.
The food is fabulous, beautifully presented and the portions were very sensible. Self-service buffet at lunch and breakfast for as much as you wanted or as little! They also offer cooked to order options.
There was an added bonus a surprise in that Avalon ...

After many ocean cruises my wife and I decided to join our friends on our first river cruise. We are glad that we did. It was a most pleasurable experience. The ship, the friendly and considerate staff, the excellent food made this vacation most memorable. Our dining room waiter, Bogdan, was always there with a smile and recommendation. The cruise director, Francesco, as busy as he was, made time ...

Our first choice was Scenic River Cruises, we went on an excellent cruise with them last time. Scenic were booked on the dates we wanted this time, so Avalon was recommended to us.
It compared very well. Avalon staff were a bit more relaxed. The ship was pristine & the cleaners were always sterilising the ship.
The Cruise Director David was fantastic, great sense of humour & presentation. ...

We had never cruised before - river or ocean - so didn't know what to expect. We will probably never do another one, because nothing can live up to the phenomenal time we had on or Jewish Heritage cruise. Where to begin? We had a royal suite - so worth the extra money for a king size bed, double sinks, a larger shower, a separate toilet room with sink, 2 televisions, a table and chairs and 12 ...
