Ship: Avalon Expression
Cruise Date: 05/28/2016
Destination: Europe
Everything was excellent. An example of the superb planning is when the rains precluded stopping at some of cities on the Danube there was a good backup plan. Erik Jan-Bleeker was our tour guide and he was successful in making our vacation wonderful regardless of what mother nature through at us. They made us feel we were special. The ship's crew was outstanding friendly, professional and courteous. Rooms and food were excellent.

Avalon went above and beyond to accommodate our cruise even though Danube levels kept the ship from being able to sail the entire route. The refund offered and the excellent options presented more than made up for the inconvenience. Eric Bleeker could not have been a better cruise director- patient with our questions and expert in his answers.

This was my first guide-tour and I couldn't' have been more pleased. Avalon delivered on every aspect of the river cruise as described in their brochure. Because Avalon offered incredible early booking discounts my sisters and I were able to take a memorable trip in honor and memory of our late mother. We basically went on the her "dream trip" to see the Tulips in Springtime. She probably wouldn't' have treated herself to such high-end cruise but she certainly deserved to have the first-class experience my sisters and I enjoyed.

Avalon was great. This was our first river cruise. It exceeded expectations in every respect. Accommodations on the ship were equivalent to a luxury hotel. Every tour and excursion was enjoyable and informative and happened without any hitch. We will do this again.

The Amazon Discovery team was great and the trip so much fun. We were able to swim in the Amazon, catch Pirrahna and then eat them for lunch. What a treat!!! The rooms were spacious and well appointed and the catering staff excellent. YES we would recommend this part of the trip again and again.

My cruise of the Rhine River aboard the Avalon Felicity was outstanding. The ship, with its smaller passenger-load and larger cabin size, was very nice. The crew was very friendly and engaging. The passengers (mostly over 50) were good natured and game, in spite of the physically challenging sightseeing program (a great deal of walking on cobblestone streets). No complaining about anything. There was a nice selection of food and it was very well prepared and served. I had the best rack of lamb I've ever eaten. I've taken a Viking cruise in Russia (2004) and this Avalon cruise was better.

Avalon has superb cabins, the food was excellent as was the service from the staff and crew. And river cruising is the way to travel as far as we are concerned.

I found all the guides as well as the cruise director to be so incredibly knowledgeable. They could answer any question. We were kept busy the whole time but could have taken time off if we had wanted; we didn't want to or we would have missed something that was exciting. The ship was beautiful; the food fantastic and choices were so different. The crew, even the captain, was so personable and we really developed a friendship with one of our servers. There were so many opportunities to interact with other passengers and I think we made so life-long friends. I felt carried for and about.

The cruise was perfect - excellent food, great people, interesting and lovely tours. I also want to state that the chef on the cruise, Oliver was amazing. I have so many dietary restrictions and he would go out of his way to ensure I had extremely delicious food every day.

Avalon's ship, accommodations, food, service, cruise staff were all exceptional. Shore excursions were informative and well planned. Local guides were knowledgeable and able to share aspects of their culture that might not be otherwise known by tourists. Staff regularly went out of their way to take care of unexpected problems experienced by other guests.
