    A wonderful experience for our first cruise. The service personnel were first class. The tours were highly organized and loved the guides.

    Include entry to sights not just walk around them. Local guides were good, but the ship board guy, directed us to wrong place to catch shuttle bus back to ship from Amsterdam and we were nearly abandoned. Maps of towns we are to walk thru and emergency contact cards should be in rooms each night not just on a desk obscured by the crowd picking up their listening devices. More free time to explore. Felt like every minute was programmed. Not enough time to rest.

    We had a great time! From the start, it was a wonderful experience. The transfer from airport to ship was helpful. We would have had a difficult time making the transition, but the staff were extremely helpful. Once we arrived, we were warmly greeted and given the opportunity to rest a little while our room was prepared. The meals were first rate. The staff was wonderful and accommodating. They met our every need. We enjoyed the evening entertainment, as well as the planned excursions. We were sad to leave at the end of our trip, but would definitely consider another cruise with Avalon again.

    I would suggest allowing more of the excursions to be in the afternoon so that people are not getting up at 7:30 AM in the mornings and have breakfast to make the bus at 8:30 AM. A later start time and a boxed lunch would be a nice change of pace!

    The crew, ship and meals were all very good. There was an issue with the wording of one of the tours that I paid an additional amount for and I will take it up with Avalon. Also with the room description I paid extra for the wall to wall windows. It was useless to have done that. Most of the time we were right next to another boat, or to a wall and there was no way we would even keep the curtains opened.
