Start your adventure in the enchanting city of Paris, where you’ll embark on a 7-night river cruise along the picturesque Seine. Cruise your way with Avalon Choice® excursions—choose from Classic, Active, and Discovery experiences to tailor your journey to you.

After your memorable voyage along the Seine, set off for Basel, Switzerland, where your river journey continues. Here, you’ll board your Suite Ship® to begin a 7-night cruise along the majestic Rhine River. Visit Breisach for a taste of the Black Forest, explore Strasbourg’s Gothic cathedral, and tour the storied halls of Heidelberg Castle. Sail through the dramatic Rhine Gorge, then cap off your experience with a guided canal tour through the colorful city of Amsterdam. Enjoy free time exploring the city’s renowned museums, local delicacies, and scenic canals—an unforgettable finale to your travels.
A Classic Journey, Season by Season.
From the lively energy of summer to the golden calm of fall and the fresh renewal of spring, the Rhine and the Seine reveal a different kind of romance in every season. Depending on when you sail, you can enjoy Paris in Bloom on Île Saint Louis, spring strawberry picking and jam making, summer brewery tours and tastings, the mesmerizing light show at Rouen Cathedral, fall visits to historic vineyards or a cozy apple harvest with fresh cider tastings. Changing light, riverside scenery, and a more relaxed pace bring fresh perspectives to the City of Light, Normandy’s historic shores and the Rhine’s legendary scenery. It’s the same iconic route – beautifully shaped by the season in which you experience it.
