To sail past cliffside castles while uncovering cliff-hangers in the company of award-winning artists. And capture insider narratives outside the pages of novels, scripts, and song lyrics. Add to the storytelling tapestry of your life when you join Avalon – and your favourite chart-toppers – for a “once upon a river” experience through Europe’s vineyard-clad vistas and storybook settings.
“One of the great pleasures of life is the setting, and what better backdrop to enjoy art, history, food and camaraderie than a river cruise on the Seine, a magical waterway that’s mesmerised and inspired since medieval times. This Avalon Active and Discovery Cruise will allow you to flow between the centuries without leaving the comforts of the present. Can’t wait to take this journey with you."
- Candace Bushnell
"I grew up alongside a river in the middle of America and have always been mesmerized by not just their beauty but their symbolism: of movement, change and possibility. So I'm truly thrilled to be spending time on the Avalon Waterways' Active & Discovery cruise on the Danube River, in a part of the world I've not yet explored, learning and enjoying each day with true fellow travelers."
- Gillian Flynn“Travel has long been a source of inspiration and rejuvenation for me and I cannot imagine a better place to seek (and find) both of those things than on the legendary Danube River. I could not be more excited to sail from Budapest to Deggendorf on the Avalon Active & Discovery cruise and I’m especially thrilled to be doing it with group of like-minded travelers. Together we’ll explore, connect, relax, and revel in the wild beauty that every adventure brings.”
-Cheryl Strayed"Nothing fires the imagination like travel; and traveling on a river cruise allows you to enjoy art, culture, and history, with an ease that frees the imagination to fly to the greatest heights of invention. I can't wait to share the joy of discovery with fellow travelers."
-Christopher Moore“We don’t get a lot of firsts this far into our career. Playing our music to our fans on a Rhine River Cruise is an experience none of us would have imagined. We’re grateful for the opportunity and excited for the experience!”
- Jett Beres from Sister Hazel
