Avalon Panorama Cruises

Avalon Panorama – Panoramic views and effortless European discovery.


Avalon Panorama is a contemporary Suite Ship designed to immerse guests in the beauty of Europe’s great rivers. Sailing the Rhine, Main and Danube, she combines innovative Panorama Suites with an intimate guest capacity and relaxed onboard atmosphere. With light-filled public spaces and thoughtfully paced itineraries, Avalon Panorama offers a modern and welcoming way to explore Europe by river.

Avalon Panorama was the first of Avalon Waterways’ Suite Ships to introduce the line’s now-signature Panorama Suites, redefining how guests experience river cruising. Designed to maximise space and natural light, she keeps the ever-changing scenery firmly in view, whether sailing through the dramatic Rhine Gorge or along the historic Danube.


Her itineraries connect grand capitals, charming medieval towns, and vineyard-covered valleys. Each journey balances guided excursions with time for independent exploration, allowing guests to discover at their own rhythm.

Returning onboard feels like stepping into a calm and comfortable retreat, where the river remains centre stage.


Public spaces are open and inviting, from the expansive Panorama Lounge to the open-air Sky Deck. Evenings unfold with regional cuisine, local wines, and relaxed entertainment, creating a social yet unhurried atmosphere. Avalon Panorama suits travellers who value connection, comfort, and meaningful discovery without unnecessary formality.

Cabins

Accommodation aboard Avalon Panorama centres on her innovative Panorama Suites. These spacious staterooms feature wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows that slide open to create an open-air balcony, bringing fresh air and uninterrupted views directly into the room. Beds face the window, so guests wake to castles perched above the river or vineyards rolling along the banks. Contemporary décor, generous storage, and well-appointed bathrooms provide a refined and restful space to unwind after each day ashore.

A selection of staterooms with fixed windows offers a comfortable and value-focused alternative.)
