Newest River Cruise
Ships
Avalon sets a new standard in river
cruising! Built to create a warm and
pleasant ambiance, and with the
travelers' comfort and safety in
mind, our vessels are sleek and
elegant and part of a new generation
of river cruisers, with
state-of-the-art technology. These
ships offer larger accommodations
with hotel-style beds, modern
private facilities, satellite
television, floor to ceiling sliding
glass doors in most staterooms and
some cabins with private balcony.
There's internet access (except on
the Isabela II), fitness equipment
and much more.
Luxurious Amenities
On each vessel panoramic views
entice diners in the restaurant and
public lounge, and there is ample
outside viewing space. Enjoy a drink
at the bar or in the lounge. Delight
in the romantic European landscape
as you sit outside on the Sun or Sky
Deck. These ships have
English-speaking staffs, non-smoking
interiors, and Continental cuisine
that appeals to the North American
palate. You'll enjoy open seating
and a leisurely single sitting at
mealtimes, plus local wines and
choice of entrees with every dinner.
Depending on the ship, travelers can
work out in the gleaming fitness
center, walk around the walking
track, relax in the whirlpool, play
a game with large chess pieces,
visit the gift shop for souvenirs,
or splash in the fun-pool. For those
who want some pampering, there is a
salon and massage service. Plus the
quality furnishings, bedding and
appointments lend a luxurious feel
to just lounging around. Each vessel
is designed with the passenger's
complete comfort in mind.
Created for the North American
market
These new ships are built for the
North American market, with either
entirely non-smoking interiors
(Europe and Galapagos) or smoking
restricted to specific areas (China
and Egypt). The crews are English
speaking. Staterooms are larger than
most other river cruise vessels with
comfortable beds and large windows
to view the passing scenery. Meals
are tailored to North American
tastes, and in Europe coffee and tea
are available at no extra charge
throughout the day.
