The Avalon Waterways story
Here, the Possibilities are as Wide Open as the Views
Travelers looking to explore the world can let its legendary rivers guide them. For those who want more from every journey, there is Avalon Waterways. Our Suite Ships feature one of a kind Panorama Suites with the widest opening windows in river cruising, the industry’s only Open Air Balcony, and beds facing the views. Beyond our wall to wall, floor to ceiling windows is a world ready to explore at the pace travelers prefer. With Avalon Waterways, travelers are invited to be choosers.
Nearly a Century of Experience
Selecting an Avalon vacation means choosing expertise, passion, and thoughtful design. Our story began almost a century ago when Antonio Mantegazza began sharing the beauty of Lake Lugano with visitors. What started with a single rowboat in 1928 has grown into a global name in travel. Today, Avalon continues that legacy with award winning river cruises known for relaxed luxury, choice, and exceptional views. Recent honors include recognition from Cruise Critic and USA Today for overall quality and guest satisfaction.
