About Me

Legendary Danube River Cruise with Avalon
Legendary Danube River Cruise with Avalon

I experienced my first river cruise a few years ago on Avalon Waterways and found a new passion.  River Cruising in Europe makes vacationing easy and carefree.  The ships are smaller holding less than 200 people and is your home for the week.  There is a port of call everyday in a different city or country. At these ports there is an included shore excursion.  The shore excursions are offered in different categories - for people who have difficulty walking there is usually a van tour offered, for the slower walker there is a group for them and then there is the group for the fast walkers.  This makes it convenient for everyone on board the ship to enjoy their excursion.  Also included on these vacations are entertainment which includes local entertainment that you actually pick up in their home port, guest speakers and destination specialist.  Beer and wine are included with lunch and dinner everyday. All your meals and free wi-fi are also included.  River Cruise vacations are truely a "carefree" vacation.
