Discover Holland on our best Europe River Cruises

Unpack once and indulge more on an Avalon Waterways river cruise through Holland. While in Holland, throw open the doors of your suite and invite the view in as you glide through lush Friesland, spotting cattle and horses dotted across picturesque landscapes. In the Keukenhof Gardens, traipse through the seven million flower bulbs bursting to life. Be surprised by the quaint fishing village of Enkhuizen or explore the pretty canals of Gouda with cheese in hand. Holland isn’t just about vibrant, dynamic Amsterdam – we’ll show you a country where there are treasures to be unearthed as you live it up with Avalon Waterways.

THE POSSIBILITIES ARE AS WIDE OPEN AS THE VIEWS

Cruise the world's most magnificent rivers in relaxed luxury with Avalon Waterways. Our wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows blur the line between the outside and in, allowing you to experience the world less seen from the comfort of your bed.

Pair panoramic scenes with the widest-ranging excursion choices in river cruising for an experience as wide open as the view.

Rooms with a View

The window of opportunity to see and experience the world just got a whole lot wider. Our beds actually face the view with the widest-opening, wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows in river cruising. Think of it as a room with a view!

Relaxed Luxury

Delight in the difference and comfort. Leaving the rules behind, but not the luxury. From free time to optional excursions, enjoy your cruise at your pace, your way.

Taste the World

Great food feeds your soul, fuels your passion, and shapes your memories. Taste decadent local delicacies, fresh regional wine and produce. On an Avalon cruise, dining is part of the journey.

Unpack Once

We've mastered the art of blending luxury with comfort. Unpack once and its smooth sailing as we share our welcoming spirit throughout the ship.
