    I loved everything about it! Our stateroom was so beautiful and comfortable. I really appreciated all the effort of Chef Oliver with my Gluten Free dietary issues. His food was amazing! I still dream about his amazing GF croissants. Thank you to all the staff for an incredible experience!!!

    It was a shot in the dark, trying to choose the best cruise and we definitely hit the jackpot with Avalon. The cabins were comfortable and well kept, the food was divine, the tour options were diverse and encompassed everything we could wish for...and the crew were friendly, going out of their way to be helpful. With ages ranging from 14 to 50 in our family group, we were all catered for and everyone enjoyed the vacation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Avalon, in fact we were so impressed, we are traveling again next March with Avalon and cannot wait.
