First impressions of our FIRST EVER river cruise | Avalon Waterways Romantic Rhine

Join us as we board the Avalon Waterways Panorama for our first ever river cruise! We joined Avalon Panorama in Amsterdam and spent the following 7 nights making our way down to Basel on a Romantic Rhine river cruise. In this episode we fly from Cardiff and meet our Avalon Waterways representative in Amsterdam before taking a transfer to our ship, the Avalon Waterways Panorama. We get checked in and explore Avalon Panorama before making our way in to Amsterdam to explore the streets and canals.

Exciting onboard amenities include complimentary computer use in public areas and Wi-Fi access, a well-stocked library, a Fitness Center, and a spacious Sky Deck with premium lounge chairs, shade system, whirlpool, and delightful Sky Bistro. There's no better way to take in the view than cruising in Europe in the spacious comfort of the Avalon Panorama.".

We started cruising in 2014 by doing a mini cruise on P&O Aurora. Making videos of our cruises and sharing our experiences has become our hobby – the complete video is filmed and edited on an iPhone. The videos are our opinions and experiences while on board - really they are us having fun and brining you along with us! We may not be the youngest cruisers but we are trying to break the stereotype that cruising is for retired people. On a cruise you will normally find us wondering around the ship taking in the atmosphere (and working our way through the cocktails). We have sailed on P&O Cruises, Cunard Line, Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Avalon Waterways. We'd love to try Ambassador Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), Fred Olsen, Holland America (HAL), Celebrity, Disney Cruises, Carnival Cruises, Costa, Aida, Marella and Celestyal. #Avalonwaterways #AvalonPanorama #cruise #cruisemonkeys #cruising #vlogs #vloggers #bloggers #cruisereview #review #rivercruise #rivercruises #rhineriver
