Working with my travel agent Connie was a 5 star rating. I wasn’t impressed with the service or food on Avalon. I have been on Viking so I do have a comparison. The tours were good. Our Marriott hotel in Prague was excellent.

What a wonderful vacation we had. We were sorry to say goodbye to the friends we made and the crew who did a wonderful job in taking care of us. From the arrival at the airport to the departure Avalon took care of us, In addition to a wonderful time we had on board, Avalon supplied great hotels on our early arrival in Budapest and extend stay in Prague. The included tours were great with very good tour guides on all. I have nothing but good thigs to say on our first cruise with Avalon and can see us going on other cruises with them.
