Avalon Envision

About Avalon Envision

Avalon Envision belongs to Avalon Waterways's Suite Ship series and entered service in 2019. Built to navigate the lock systems and bridge clearances of European waterways, she measures roughly 135 metres in length and accommodates up to 166 guests in 83 staterooms across 3 passenger decks.

Avalon Waterways introduced the Suite Ship concept in 2011 — a vessel where every standard cabin was reimagined as an open-air suite with the bed turned to face an eleven-foot panoramic window. The fleet sails the Rhine, Danube, Seine, Rhône-Saône, Douro, Po, Mekong, Irrawaddy and Galápagos. Avalon Envision reflects that brand DNA — from the design of her public spaces to the inclusions in her base fare.

The ship's typical home waters are the Rhine, where she runs 8 distinct itineraries during the operating season. Repositioning sailings, themed wine cruises and Christmas-market voyages may be added in autumn and early winter.

The following stateroom and suite categories are offered onboard. Square-foot figures are quoted from the operator's published deck plans and exclude balcony floor space.
