Avalon Vista

Avalon Vista

If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime tour of Europe, then a journey aboard Avalon Vista is just the cruise for you. This stunning ship will transport you throughout the Rhine, Danube, and Main Rivers to destinations including Holland, Germany, France, Hungary, Austria, Belgium, and Slovakia. Depending on your itinerary, your cruise may also include land tours in Switzerland and Czech Republic, and/or extensions into Switzerland, London or Italy by train. Within these destinations, you will get to explore beautiful riverside cities and towns, discovering all their rare and treasured sights.

Avalon Suite Ships

Launched in 2012, Avalon Vista is a part of Avalon Waterways’ new fleet of “Suite Ships,” featuring two full decks of suites that measure at least 200-square feet in size, making them 30% larger than the industry standard. When cruising on this ship, you can expect personalized service, luxurious accommodations, delicious cuisine and incredible itineraries, making for an unbeatable cruise experience.

Avalon Vista has a passenger capacity of 166 so you can expect a very personalized cruise with individual attention from the crew to your fellow guests. Avalon Waterways embodies a welcoming spirit on all of their ships and Avalon Vista is no exception. The staff is ready to help you with anything you need, and since the ship has such a small capacity, your chances of making new friends is much higher than it would be on a larger vessel. The crew will even assist you in throwing private in-suite cocktail parties so you can truly enjoy your time onboard with the friends you make.

Destinations

The highlight of any river cruise on Avalon Vista is its incredible itineraries that will immerse you right in the center of European culture. One of the biggest benefits of a river cruise is that you can spend the entire day seeing all there is to offer, and then you can wake up and do it all over again in a brand-new city or town. Some of the places to which Avalon Vista will take you include:

• Zurich
• Amsterdam
• Prague
• Budapest

• Basel
• Lucerne

Every stop offers different paced tours with local experts and many different ways to learn about the European history and culture in each city, including bicycle tours. Imagine doing things like visiting a German woodcarver’s workshop, exploring Gothic cathedrals, and cruising through the beautiful Rhine Gorge. With an Avalon Vista cruise, all of these things can easily turn into realities. Cultural enrichment doesn’t end once you step back onto your ship. Depending on where you travel, there will be different experts and specialists onboard, as well as special guest lecturers, who will pass on their specialized knowledge to you through Avalon’s seemingly limitless onboard enrichment program.

Dining Options

Another great highlight of cruises aboard Avalon Vista is the heavenly cuisine.
