Avalon Tranquility II – calm waters, deeper discoveries


Avalon Tranquility II is a contemporary Suite Ship designed for immersive journeys along the Rhine, Main and Danube rivers. With an intimate guest capacity and Avalon’s signature open-air Panorama Suites, she offers a relaxed and light-filled setting for exploring Europe’s historic capitals and riverside towns. Avalon Tranquility II combines modern comfort with thoughtfully paced itineraries, creating a journey that feels both enriching and effortlessly smooth.

True to her name, Avalon Tranquility II offers a river experience defined by calm surroundings and meaningful exploration. Sailing through the dramatic Rhine Gorge and along the cultural heart of the Danube, she connects guests with Europe’s layered history, architectural beauty, and regional traditions.


Her design prioritises openness and flow. Public spaces are bright and welcoming, with expansive windows that frame castles, vineyards and cathedral spires as they drift past.
