Avalon Waterways is a river cruise brand offering journeys through Europe, South America, Asia, and Africa. Its Suite Ships are designed for smaller-scale cruising, with spacious Panorama Suites, wall-to-wall windows, and signature Open-Air Balconies that bring river scenery into the room. Beds face the windows, giving guests views of passing landscapes from their suites.

The brand combines guided experiences with flexibility. Avalon Choice excursions offer Classic, Discovery, and Active options, from landmark visits and local food experiences to kayaking and e-bike outings. Cruises include up to 28 excursions, and the onboard Adventure Center provides complimentary bikes, e-bikes, maps, and gear for independent exploration. Avalon also features after-dark programming and opportunities to personalize each trip.

Positioning its cruises around comfort, choice, and immersive discovery, Avalon aims to help travelers explore destinations at their own pace. Its itineraries span multiple continents, with experiences that include well-known attractions as well as local discoveries. The company is part of the Globus family of brands.
