Avalon Waterways

Relaxed luxury river cruising with the widest views
Cruise the world's most iconic rivers in style with a multi award-winning cruise operator
 
Glide along the enchanting rivers of Europe or the mighty rivers of Asia in refined comfort on an Avalon Waterways river cruise. Discover the Rhine, Douro or Danube aboard an Avalon Suite Ship® as quaint villages and rolling vineyards pass you by from an award-winning Panoramic Suite with the widest windows in river cruising. Dine when and where you like with delicious chef-prepared meals catered to all dietary requirements—from four-course meals to casual eats, in-suite service, al fresco options and even picnic baskets to go. For an exclusive river experience, the spacious Avalon Saigon, home to just 86 guests, is your gateway to the magical Mekong and local cultures of Cambodia and Vietnam. Or explore the Nile River or venture deep into the Amazon aboard a luxury small ship.  
 
Every voyage includes award-winning shore excursions led by expert local guides, ensuring a deeper connection to each destination. To take the road less travelled on your dream European holiday, enquire about Avalon's Special Interest cruises—kayak through Amsterdam's canals or join an art workshop on an Active & Discovery cruise in Holland, or savour the flavours of Burgundy and Provence on a culinary French river cruise. As part of the Globus family of brands, Avalon Waterways prides itself on a high standard of quality excellence. Complete with exclusive bedding, premium bath products, a 3:1 guest-to-crew ratio and impeccable friendly service to make guests feel at home,  your onboard experience  is truly memorable. Save on Avalon river cruises departing in 2026 with limited-time savings on select salings. RACV Members receive exclusive additional savings.
