Avalon Waterways, part of the Globus family of brands, is best known for its Suite Ships and their wall-to-wall panoramic windows.
Most suites face the river through a window that opens into an open-air balcony, so attendees watch the scenery from their room. The line offers a mix of classic sightseeing and active excursions, with a relaxed, comfortable style.
For a European river program with a strong sense of place, Avalon is an easy recommendation. If you are still weighing lines against each other, the at-sea overview lays out how we compare them.

We will match the ship and route to your dates and group.
Buy the Sea has been placing corporate groups at sea for twenty-six years, across every major line. We know how Avalon works, and we know what to ask for and when to ask for it so that your program gets the ships, the spaces and the dates it needs. That is the part we handle.
Bring us a headcount, a budget and a range of dates. We will come back with real options with Avalon — and across every other line, because we represent all of them and we are paid by the cruise line, never by you. There is no fee, no markup and no obligation. Here is why that matters.
Within reason, and often more of it than planners expect — signage, screens, key cards, venue naming and private events are all on the table. What is possible comes together at negotiation, and we will walk you through it.
Yes, subject to dates. A full charter is often the best option for a group of river-ship size.
Nothing. We are compensated by the cruise line, never by you. Twenty-six years of doing it this way is covered in why Buy the Sea.
