The Lower Danube. Europe, Unfiltered. 🌍

This is a different side of the Danube—the one fewer people have experienced, and the one you will never forget.

It begins where the grand capitals fade & something more unexpected takes over.
- Serbia’s vibrant energy.
- Bulgaria’s centuries-old fortresses.
- Romania’s wild, untamed landscapes.
Plus the dramatic passage through the Iron Gates, where cliffs rise high and the river narrows into something powerful and cinematic.

The Lower Danube carries you through countries and cultures that feel less polished, more personal—and deeply rooted in history, tradition and everyday life. With Avalon, you experience it with the same comfort and care—just in a part of Europe that feels refreshingly undiscovered.

2027 sailings are open now. With just $250 down, it's time to look forward to something a little less expected—and a lot more memorable. ✨FLY FREE or SAVE $3,600/couple today.✨

Belgium. Small Country. Big Indulgence. 🇧🇪

Waffles worth the wait. Chocolate that ruins you for all others. Beer brewed with centuries of pride. And cities that feel like they were designed for wandering.

On an Avalon cruise through Belgium, the experience unfolds in layers—medieval streets in Bruges, vibrant energy in Antwerp, storybook canals in Ghent. Add in hands-on moments like chocolate workshops or creative local experiences, and it becomes something far more immersive than a quick stop. This is where culture meets craft. Where every stop feels a little more personal—and a little more delicious.

2027 sailings are open now. With just $250 down, you're invited to start dreaming in chocolate and cobblestones. ✨FLY FREE or SAVE $3,600/couple today.✨

Perfectly Sized. Intentionally Different. 🚢

Not every river cruise is built the same - and you can feel it.
✨Fewer guests on board (because your space matters).
✨Conversations that happen naturally, not in crowds.
✨Shore experiences that feel personal, not packed.
✨Local connections that bring each place to life.

Avalon's ""boatique"" philosophy keeps the focus where it belongs - on you, the places you came to see and the way it feels while you're there.

2027 sailings are now open. With just $250 down, you can reserve your suite and experience what travel feels like when it's designed to feel this personal - and this good. FLY FREE or SAVE $3,600/couple today.

Switzerland: Where Your Rhine Story Begins. 🇨🇭

For many Rhine River cruises, the journey starts (or ends) in Switzerland—and what a way to begin.

✨ Alpine views that hardly look real

✨ Basel’s old-world streets and café culture

Avalon gives you time to take it in before you ever step on the ship—and time again when you return. Because the start of a journey should feel just as memorable as everything that follows.

2027 Rhine sailings are now open. With just $250 down, your suite—and Switzerland—can officially be on your calendar. Book today and get your choice of $3,600 OFF or FREE Air.
