A river cruise in Europe is a great way to get up close and personal to some of the most beautiful sites of Europe.  But an Avalon Waterways Active Discovery river cruise gets you even closer: kayak or hike in stunning scenery; walk through a vineyard (yes, tasting is allowed); try a cooking class with a local chef; get away from the ordinary.  With an Avalon Waterways Active Discovery river cruise, you’re not observing life in Europe: you’re part of it.

Just imagine kayaking with elegant swans as your companions, learning how to make a perfect local dish, or hiking to a gorgeous vantage point, high above the river that takes you past majestic cities and quaint villages.

Your active excursions are included in your cruise fare, as are your meals, wine and beer at dinner, and of course your riverview accommodation.  Not feeling so active one day? No problem, simply join a less strenuous tour!

And on select Avalon Waterways river cruises in 2018 the European river cruise specialists at Q Cruise + Travel Chicago will even include your gratuities – a value of over $120 per person per week.
