Avalon New Active Discovery Cruises
Avalon Waterways River cruises realizes that while many people do love being able to relax on a cruise, others worry that they won’t have an opportunity to be active. If fitness centers and onboard walking tracks aren’t enough, then sailing on a Avalon Waterways cruise may be enough. To satisfy your need for some physical activity while on the water. In 2018, they will be expanding by adding Active Discovery series cruises. Not only is the itinerary impressive, so are the variety of activities.
The Itinerary
Passengers will sail on the Rhine. Cruises will be 7 nights and will sail between Amsterdam and Frankfurt. This isn’t the first time that Avalon has introduced Activite Discovery trips as they have already debuted. These types of cruises are on the Danube this year. The line has also been adding some active excursions to some of their regular sailings as well.
Activities
There will be a lot of physically active excursions to choose from. These include things like running, biking and hiking. For those that want something that is a little less active, there will also be excursions like culinary walking tours. For those that want a little bit of adventure to go along with their activity level, they can take part in visiting an extinct volcano, salt mine or even an ice cave or a running tour of Amsterdam. There truly is something for everyone to do no matter what their interests and activity levels are. One of the goals of these excursions is to provide guests with a way to stay physically active without getting bored in the process.
Getting To Know The Destination Through Physical Activities
Besides allowing you to be physically active, these Active Discovery activities, allow passengers to get fully immersed in their destination. This is totally different than other river cruises where a lot of excursions focus on seeing things like historical sites. While there may be some walking involved at these sites, in the past the focus has just been more on seeing and learning. Rather than there being a physical component to the actual excursion. One of the best things about these activities is that the excursions will be included in the passenger’s fare so there’s no surprises at the end of the cruise. They won’t have to worry about paying a hefty fee for an excursion, on top of what they have already paid for the cruise. Therefore, Fares for these Active Discovery cruises start at a little over $3,200 a per person.
