Missy Skoog’s Avalon River Cruise on the Danube

I had the opportunity to travel on an Avalon Waterways cruise from Budapest to Vienna on the Danube.  Wow, what an experience!  We stops at different ports along the river and did small guided tours.  Some of the amazing cities we visited were Budapest, Bratislava, Durnstein Austria, Melk and Vienna.

The Avalon Artistry II delivers an intimate setting, along with two full decks of suites featuring Wall-to-Wall Panoramic Windows that transform the living space into a unique Open-Air Balcony®. With 200 square feet, Panorama Suites are more than 30% larger than the industry standard, giving you the rare opportunity to wake each morning to the enchanting scenery and fresh breezes. Onboard amenities include a complimentary Internet Corner and Wi-Fi access, an expanded Fitness Center, and a spacious Sky Deck with premium lounge chairs, shade system, whirlpool, and the delightful Sky Bistro.
