Avalon does it right! Boat was in excellent condition, crew was fabulous. Adding the Happy hour was an excellent way to start your evening on board. Never had to wait for a drink, the service was impeccable. All meals on board are delicious & service in the dining room is top notch. Seating very comfortable with tables available for two, four ,and a few larger tables for bigger ...

This was our second Avalon cruise. We did the Saone and Rhone river cruise last year through Burgundy and Provence and had a great experience with Avalon so we decided to go with them again. There was also a $250.00 per person incentive for returning patrons. This cruise began in Amsterdam with stops in Cologne, Rudesheim, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Breach, Basel, and finally Lucerne. The ...

This was our first River Cruise, we could not have picked a better company to travel with. Prior to departure the travel information we received was second to none, on arrival our connections were informative and on arriving at the ship we were welcomed on board by all staff that passed us and introduced to other guests already onboard. Our room was perfect very comfortable and clean ( and ...

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 ...

Review - This was the perfect first time cruise for us! We celebrated 50th Anniversaries with our friends! We thoroughly enjoyed the itinerary that Avalon chose for us to enjoy the Rhine River. They covered every detail which made every day a great experience. We were thankful Avalon considered all details of keeping the cruising community safe with accessible hand sanitizing stations and a ...

We wanted to go across Europe on the three rivers, Danube, Main and the Rhine. We did the North Sea to the Black Sea Sailing. The Avalon ship was excellent and the crew was courteous, efficient and eager to help. The food was very good, with local specialties, and several regular favorites always available. Free happy hour, plus wine and beer served at lunch and dinner, keeps your bar tabs small. ...

We have traveled extensively but are not cruisers. This was our first river cruise and, even though we were uncertain if we had made the right choice, Avalon exceeded our expectations in every way. The Expression is a beautiful ship and the number of guests made it easy to make new friends to share our experiences with. The active and discovery trip was a great choice. There were a number of ...

We chose this Avalon cruise because of the port stops and adventure excursions. There were many excursions to choose from to satisfy everyones’ interests. The Avalon staff were knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Helmut had informative port talks and was very helpful if you had a question about other possible places of interest to visit while at port. The dining room wait staff made the ...

We chose this cruise because we are not yet retired and wanted a shorter itinerary. We were aware that Avalon is known for excellent service and larger staterooms with wide open doors (similar to a balcony) and this cruise fit our schedule. The ship was beautiful and our room was amazing - large, well appointed, clean, new and very spacious. The view was spectacular. We were impressed to be met ...
