Why Choose Avalon Waterways

Inspired Design

With our Suite Ship, we’re pioneering the new look of river cruising. Not only are our staterooms and views 30 percent larger than any other small ship in Europe, providing cruisers a renewed feeling of freedom and space, every component of the experience, from bed and bathroom positioning and color palette to storage space and sound-proof insulation, was wistfully designed for our cruisers to ensure they enjoy all that river cruising has to offer. And perhaps most surprisingly, these Panorama Suites are available at a price similar to that of ordinary staterooms of other river cruise lines.

Inspired by design, the Panorama was crafted to entice all five senses. Some enhancements, including deluxe woven carpeting, flowers, premium L’Occitane products and scented sticks in our staterooms are subtle. Other offerings, such as new Avalon-branded premium bedding (Comfort Collection by Avalon), marble bathrooms as well as a perfect balance of warm interiors, natural lighting and panoramic views are distinctive and unexpected. Combined, all elements provide travelers with a unique feeling of space, freedom and comfort not found with any other river cruise line.
