Creator's Key Takeaways

the great news for everyone is that if at home you're already out there participating in society a lot of the things you're already doing at home are going to be the same life you're leading here on an avalon river cruise

avalon waterways not only arranges for those tests for its guests it also covers the costs which is quite a wonderful service

YouTube Video Description

Everyone wants to know: what's river cruising like post-COVID? World's Greatest Cruises' Producer and Host Lynn Elmhirst went on an @AvalonWaterways River cruise on the Rhone River in the south of France in Fall, 2021, to experience first hand if the pandemic has changed the experience of river cruising. As the pandemic ebbs, so do health protocols change, but as they say "seeing is believing." Even with the protocols in effect in Fall, 2021, many of which have been relaxed, returning to the rivers of Europe on a river cruise has never felt so good!
