ACTION AT THE HELM … Avalon Waterways Adds “Adventure Host” to ALL 2019 Europe Sailings

 

LITTLETON, Colorado – March 12, 2018 – On the heels of announcing Active DiscoverySM itineraries on the Rhine, Danube & Rhône Rivers as well as a new Avalon Choice® program featuring included “Classic,” “Discovery” and “Active”excursions on each and every itinerary throughout Europe, Avalon Waterways is also announcing plans to add an Avalon Adventure HostSM, based in a new Adventure Center, to all 2019 European cruises.

 

“Heartwarming discoveries have always been available on every Avalon Waterways cruise,” said Pam Hoffee, managing director of Avalon Waterways. “For those looking for heart-pumping discoveries as well, we are now providing our guests with an Avalon Adventure Host who will be on-hand with gear, maps and more for active pursuits on and off the ship.”

 

With help from their Avalon Adventure Host, travelers can check out a bike (from onboard their Suite Ship) for a scenic ride through town. They can grab a Nordic walking stick and hike to a hillside vineyard or castle. Whether they’re looking for a kayaking excursion on the river or a complimentary fitness class on the Sky Deck, Avalon’s NEW Adventure Host can make it happen.

 

Also, in 2019, the company’s new AvalonGo App will help travelers independently explore each destination throughout their vacation with a detailed, daily schedule of their itinerary, a list of nearby attractions (featuring hours of operation, historical facts and more), maps, directions as well as local cafés, restaurants, bars and entertainment options for further exploration.

 

SEE BEYOND SALES EVENT: Travelers booking a 2019 cruise early can save up to $2,500 per couple on select Europe and Asia river cruises.
