View Expanded Search Search Help

You can select more than one option in most of the form fields. Here are explanations of the search options we get asked about the most often:

Departure Port: If you only want to view results for cruises that start in a specific port, you can specify it here. You can select more than one (to see cruises that start at certain ports). For example, you can select both New York and Boston if you only want to view cruises that start in either New York or Boston.

→ In the "Advanced Search"

Arrival Port: If you only want to view results for cruises that end in a specific port, you can specify it here. You can select more than one (to see cruises that end at certain ports). For example, you can select both New York and Boston if you only want to view cruises that end in either New York or Boston.

Ports of Call: You can the type name of one port that you would like all your search results to include. For example, if you type Barcelona all of the search results will include cruises that include Barcelona (even if it's not a starting or ending port in the itinerary). Be sure to spell the port name correctly!

Max Occupancy: Allows you to view search results that only include ships that have accommodations for a minimum amount of people per room. For example, if you select "5 and more" your search results will only include ships that have at least one room type that would accommodate at least 5 people. The pricing that displays on the search results page will be the per person pricing based on a room for two people. Proceed further in the online booking process to view the pricing for accommodations for a different occupancy.

Kid-Friendly: Shows cruises that are great choices for those traveling with children and teens. Includes ships with youth programs and/or youth-friendly public spaces. Programs and public spaces are subject to change, at the discretion of the cruise line.

→ Cruise Only vs Cruise Line Tour

If you check the Cruise Only option, you will only see results that are for a cruise vacation. If you check the Cruise Line Tour option, you will only see vacations that include a cruise + land tour package (also known as a Cruise Tour). Leave both unchecked to view results that include both vacation types.

There’s no better way to learn about the history and culture of Europe than on a voyage aboard Avalon Passion, which will sail you along the Moselle, Main, Rhine and Danube Rivers, transporting you to countries including France, Germany, Holland, Czech Republic, Austria, Switzerland, and Hungary. Within these destinations, you will get to explore beautiful cities and towns that are sure to provide you with an amazing escape from your everyday routine.

Launched in 2016, Avalon Passion is a part of Avalon Waterways’ new fleet of “Suite Ships,” featuring two full decks of suites that measure at least 200-square feet in size, making them 30% larger than the industry standard. When cruising on this ship, you can expect personalized service, luxurious accommodations, delicious cuisine and incredible itineraries, making for a truly incredible cruise experience.

Avalon Passion has a passenger capacity of 166 so you can expect a very personalized cruise with individual attention from the crew to your fellow guests. Avalon Waterways embodies a welcoming spirit on all of their ships and Avalon Passion is no exception. The staff is ready to help you with anything you need, and since the ship has such a small capacity, your chances of making new friends is much higher than it would be on a larger vessel. The crew will even assist you in throwing private in-suite cocktail parties so you can truly enjoy your time onboard with the friends you make.

The highlight of any river cruise on Avalon Passion is its exciting itineraries that will immerse you right in the center of European culture. One of the biggest benefits of a river cruise is that you can spend the entire day seeing all there is to offer, and then you can wake up and do it all over again in a brand-new city or town. Some of the places to which Avalon Passion will take you include Luxembourg City, Rudesheim, Cologne, Prague, Nuremberg, Regensburg, Strasbourg, and Vienna. Every stop offers different paced tours with local experts and many different ways to learn about the European history and culture in each city, including bicycle tours. Imagine doing things like walking through quaint wine villages, exploring ancient castles, or sampling hot mulled wine. With an Avalon Passion cruise, all of these things can easily turn into realities. Cultural enrichment doesn’t end once you step back onto your ship. Depending on where you travel, there will be different experts and specialists onboard, as well as special guest lecturers, who will pass on their specialized knowledge to you through Avalon’s seemingly limitless onboard enrichment program.

Another great highlight of cruises aboard Avalon Passion is the delectable cuisine. From the Welcome Dinner to the Farewell Gala, you can revel in the different flavors of regionally-influenced cuisine or stick with traditional western favorites. From al fresco lunches to full buffets and four-course dinners with plenty of healthy options, you’ll never hear your stomach grumbling for long. Breakfast is served as early as 6 a.m. with a second late-riser option and you can get food all the way up to 10:30 p.m. Avalon Passion offers complimentary wine, beer or soda with all lunches and dinner as well as sparkling wine with breakfast so you never have to worry about racking up a tab.

When you’re not out exploring, you will discover many great things to do onboard Avalon Passion. After a long day of tours and sightseeing you can relax on the Sky Deck where you will find comfortable lounge furniture, shaded areas, a whirlpool and a game area. You may also spend your free time using the onboard fitness center, hair salon, and library or visiting the two onboard lounges for a refreshing mixed drink. In your stateroom, you can enjoy a handful of luxurious amenities including a flat-screen TV with English-speaking channels and over 100 free movies, complimentary bottled water, a fully stocked minibar, nightly turn-down service, a full-size closet mirror, alarm clock, safe, vanity, lighted makeup mirror and the ability to adjust the room’s temperature.
