Turn the Table on Cruising!

Forget buffet lines and cookie-cutter menus. On Avalon Waterways, dining is designed to be an experience—fresh, local, and unforgettable.

What sets it apart:
- Farm-to-Fork Flavor: Regional dishes, plus Avalon Fresh
options created by chefs Karl & Leo Wrenkh
- Grape-to-Glass Glory: Complimentary local wines like Burgundies, Viogniers, and Rieslings
- Scenic Settings: Choose from the glass-walled Panorama Dining Room, casual Panorama Bistro, or open-air Sky Grill

From four-course dinners to hands-on cooking classes in port, this is river cruise dining—elevated.

Dining That Elevates Every Moment

Avalon’s Flex Dining brings bold flavors, fresh regional dishes, and zero pressure. No dress codes, no assigned seating, just relaxed dining with incredible views.

Start the day with sunrise breakfasts, enjoy regional favorites at lunch, and unwind with four course dinners or lighter tasting menus crafted with fresh ingredients. Plant based options are thoughtfully built into every menu, so everyone finds something to love without compromise.

Dine in the glass walled Panorama Dining Room, the cozy bistro, out on the Sky Deck or have a picnic ashore. Every meal fits naturally into the rhythm of the journey.

🍺 Beer and a European river cruise? Now that’s an interesting combination.

If you enjoy discovering local food and drink when you travel, this is a different way to experience Europe.

AmaWaterways’ **Celebration of Beer River Cruises** bring European beer culture into the journey, with tastings, brewery experiences and opportunities to learn more about the brewing traditions of places like Belgium and Germany.

I’ve shared more about these unique cruises on my blog.

Ever dream about crossing the Andes or South Africa by train, in your own private cabin, with someone else handling the bags and the laundry? That's Abercrombie & Kent's luxury rail collection.

Think Belmond-style train travel: gourmet dining, private cabins, and a Resident Tour Director sorting out the details so you don't have to. Most meals, gratuities, and even internal flights are built in.

If slow travel with five-star service is on your bucket list, this is worth a look.

Perhaps the best hotel isn't a hotel at all.

I've got a new offer from Explora Journeys, and it's worth a look if you're into a different kind of ocean travel. EXPLORA III isn't your typical cruise ship — think nine dining experiences, unlimited premium beverages, a proper wine cellar, and service that actually slows down instead of rushing you through.

Starting from $5,700 CAD per person, journeys include gratuities, Wi-Fi, spa access, and more, so there's a lot less to add up at the end.

If this sounds like your kind of trip, the details are at the link. Reach out and I'll walk you through it.

Pricing subject to availability and change.

Perhaps the best hotel isn't a hotel at all. It's EXPLORA III—where thoughtful luxury, immersive destinations, and an Ocean State of Mind come together to redefine travel.
