Beyond Deck: Exploring Bordeaux With Avalon Waterways
Avalon’s Bonjour Bordeaux itinerary marks a new chapter for Avalon in France. From the rolling vineyards of the Médoc to the hilltop town of Saint-Émilion, this itinerary was designed to showcase Bordeaux’s best – in and out of the glass.
The Avalon Way: Little Things That Make A Big Difference
Last time I sailed with Avalon, I wrote a piece called The Details That Made A Difference. And here I am again, dwelling on the small stuff. But honestly? It’s the small details where Avalon shines.

We just try to look each individual as what they are and not “this is a whole group and we are going from Amsterdam to Budapest”, no. Each individual has different likings, different personalities and everybody is respected as they are, no matter where they come from and what they want to do in their vacation. If they want to join the rest of the group, it’s perfectly fine. If they want to retire to a quieter place like the Club Lounge, or stay in the privacy of their cabin, it’s perfectly okay. There is no judgment, and we don’t make a difference about age, sex, country where they come from. They are all our people for this time they are on the cruise, and we just want to take care of them, make them have a great time. We enjoy making memories that are important for them, especially in the way that makes them want to come back again with us. That’s our purpose.
