Croatia is at the top of my personal travel bucket list.
Why?
It has the perfect mix of culture, history, amazing food and the Mediterranean Sea.
You can choose a sailing itinerary along the beautiful coast or head inland to explore more of the history. Croatia hosts some of the best Christmas markets in Europe.
River cruises are an incredible way to see the small towns and villages of Europe. You have a lot of choices when it comes to which cruise line.
The value of using a travel agent like me is that I can match you to the river cruise that will be the best fit for you.
Today's spotlight is on Avalon Waterways. What really sets Avalon apart from the other cruise lines is their cabins. Avalon has 12 suite ships sailing the European rivers.
Their entry level suite is 172 square feet compared to Viking's 135 square feet.
The Panorama Suite has wall to wall, floor to ceiling 11 foot window with a 7 foot opening. 80% of their cabins are suites so the ship feels less crowded. The beds face the window instead of the wall. The cabins do not have a balcony so you have more space in your cabin. This is a great perk if you are sailing on one of the great fall or Christmas markets itineraries.
Additional Inclusions
·Bicycles to take out – complimentary
·Panorama Bistro Dining is an alternative dining
option that will be available. Beer and wine available at lunch, but it is not
free-flowing. You have to know it's available and ask for it.

Have you ever been on It's a Small World at Disney
World? If you haven't, imagine a boat moving about 5 miles per hour.
That's how you could see Europe!
Le Boat rents canal boats to people like you. You don’t need
any boating experience for many of the routes. You “dock” by merely tying your boat
to a stake in the ground.
Can you
imagine?
You and your travel companions meander down European rivers
stopping where something looks interesting or parking your boat for the night.
