THOUGHTFUL AMENITIES

Exclusive Meets Inclusive
Regional wine and beer with lunch and dinner. Onboard enrichment activities. Onshore excursions with Local Guides. Special onboard entertainment. A customized mobile app loaded with navigation and suggestions to make the most of your free time. An exclusive experience features all the right inclusions, yet still leaves room for personalization-like the FlexDining® options to give you the freedom to choose when and where you dine on board. From formal seating in the glass-walled Panorama Dining Room to more casual atmospheres perfect for a quick plate, the delicious dining options are as unique as you are. In addition to little luxuries like complimentary Wi-Fi and around-the-clock cappuccinos, Avalon gives you the greatest luxury of all-the freedom to customize your cruise with endless options and innovative tools.

Their attention to detail has caught the attention of many of the most prestigious awards in the industry, but your good impression is their greatest reward.
