With Avalon Choice personalized and included Active & DiscoverySM excursions and activities, you can experience each destination in the style and pace that’s best for you.

Their Naturalists (in the Galápagos and the Amazon), Cruise Directors and Local Guides (in Europe), and special onboard guest lecturers bring each destination to life - from village to village or island to island. Stretch out on the Sky Deck to watch the world go by, or stretch your legs with yoga or a jog with your Avalon Adventure HostSM. Your pace, your preference.
