Overview

Prepare yourself for a sailing packed with magical experiences, savory cuisine, and splendid sights. A river cruise through Europe on Avalon Waterways’ Avalon Vista is an experience you’ll rave about. Onboard, your stateroom turns into a balcony with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors so you can even enjoy the river views from your comfortable bed. Avalon Vista has many great spaces to take in the views and to sit and meet your fellow cruisers.

When in port, an Avalon cruise comes with tours and excursions to help you understand the significance of the rivers, as well as the towns and cities that sprung up along their banks. You’ll also get to walk along ancient passageways visiting castles and tasting delicious local delicacies like cheese and wine.
