Welcome to a new wave in cruising. Welcome aboard Avalon Waterways.
For your convenience and comfort, all of our cruises include return personal Avalon Chauffeur Service*. All of our executive cars are chauffeur driven and fully equipped for your comfort and, unlike some other cruise companies, the car is dedicated to you. You don’t have to lift a finger as your luggage will be loaded and unloaded for you when you are collected from home and taken to and from your international departure airport or Eurostar station. Everything will be fully explained when you book, including how to change your pick-up point and how to contact your driver.
This service is available if you live within 100 miles of your chosen international airport or Eurostar station. If you live further than 100 miles by road from the airport or station you can still take advantage of the service by paying for the excess mileage at £1.70 per car, per mile. Mileage is calculated using the quickest route on www.googlemaps.co.uk. This service is only applicable to the UK mainland. – UK Only
