Spotlight on Avalon Waterways
Angie
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.
