Overview

Avalon Impression is one of Avalon Waterways’ most popular ships, and she has lots of options for her passengers. Onboard you will have several options for meals. Not only are there breakfasts for early risers and late risers, but you can have them delivered to your stateroom. For your complimentary excursions, you can choose to participate in the traditional tours, the leisurely tour, or the essential sightseeing option. The choices continue on the Avalon Impression’s Sky Deck, where you can choose to lounge with your book, camera, or binoculars, or you could take a dip in the whirlpool or even play a game of chess on the life-sized board.
