Below Expectations by kerrypeluso

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Avalon Vista

The people sailing on the boat were wonderful. Avalon did a good job of pulling people together in Lake Como so we built relationships. The boat experience was below expectations. We expected it to be not as good as our past river cruise experience (Scenic) as it was lower cost, but it was significantly below. Avalon really needs to do some work.

Wonderful River Cruise by tdhawes10

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Avalon Vista

If you are looking for a calm quiet cruise with a few activities to do if you want, this is for you. We did one or two excursions at every port, so you get a feel for the place you are docked at. Overall a very pleasant experience.

Great River Cruise by frenchieheart

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Avalon Vista / Destination: Europe

We have done 30 ocean cruises and this was our 1st river cruise. Being an active person, I was a little worried this would be to laid back for me but boy was I mistaken. Avalon did a spectacular job of scheduling land excursions in at all the right times. Our weather was great-which was a big plus for making this such a great vacation.

Make friends with staff and fellow passengers they all have such great stories and experiences to share! Be flexible - the water levels are unpredictable and the team will do everything they can to meet your itinerary and when it is not possible still substitute wonderful experiences and excursions!

READ up on the places you will stop. Oh, and don't order a sparkling water on your first day. we were charged for it; we only had wine with dinner to keep the bar bill down.
