Avalon Will Debut On The Douro In 2024

One year from this week (in 2024), Avalon Waterways will make its Portugal debut on the Douro River with a new itinerary and Suite Ship – the Avalon Alegria.

AVALON'S LATEST, "GRAPEST" CRUISE

Hillside vineyards and historic villages await guests as they sail through Portugal's postcard-perfect views on Avalon's all-new, eight-day Vida Portugal: Vineyards & Villages Along the Douro which begins and ends in Porto and is filled with Avalon's signature, included "Classic," "Discovery" and "Active" excursion choices. Featuring everything from ancient Amarante – in the picturesque Minho region, known for its golden church that dates back to 1530 – to the sandstone architecture in Salamanca Spain; rock art to riding bikes from Porto to the sea, this new cruise promises countless ways to soak up splendor – from medieval castles to cinematic scenery and all the vinho, baked bread, olives and cheese your soul desires.

TOASTING THE COMPANY'S NEWEST, SUITEST SHIP

Living up to its name (which, in Portuguese, means "happiness"), the Avalon Alegria – like the rest of Avalon’s fleet of Suite Ships – will feature Panorama Suites on two full decks. Each Suite provides guests, 200-square-feet of living space, Open-Air Balconies and beds facing the views for which river cruising is famous. In addition, the Alegria, has a pool on the Sky Deck to bask in the sun and soak-in the beauty of Portugal while sailing from a new, poolside point-of-view. This new Suite Ship, built exclusively to sail the Douro, will have a total of 14 Deluxe Staterooms and 37 Panorama Suites, accommodating just 102 guests and 33 crew members.
