Suite Ship

The Avalon Poetry II offers a delightfully intimate cruise setting. Like its sister Suite Ships, the Poetry II features two full decks of Panorama Suites with wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows that create river cruising's only Open-Air Balcony. With a spacious 200 square feet, Panorama Suites are more than 30% larger than the industry standard. Stretch out at day's end and wake to the world at your feet with Comfort Collection bed that faces the view. It truly is a view with a room! Onboard amenities include an alternative dining option in the Panorama Bistro, complimentary computer use in public areas and complimentary Starlink Wi-Fi access, a Fitness Center, and a spacious Sky Deck with premium lounge chairs, whirlpool, and light al fresco lunches at the Sky Bistro. The Avalon Poetry II truly is poetry in motion!

Entertainment

A SHIP BUILT AROUND YOU A perfectly designed cruise starts with a perfectly designed ship. At Avalon, every space – from light-filled lounges to al fresco decks – was created with one goal: to bring the world closer, more comfortably. With an average of just 150 guests per ship, you’ll enjoy more room to breathe, more places to unwind, and more personal attention everywhere you go. And with a fleetwide refresh for 2026, every Suite Ship® shines brighter than ever – modern interiors, updated amenities, and elevated style that matches the views outside. Spaces Made For You From the light-filled Panorama Lounge to the cozy Club Lounge to the nearly football-field-sized Sky Deck, every space was designed for comfort, connection, and views. Indoors or out, there’s always room to relax, recharge, and take it all in.

Enrichment

Curate Your Curiosities When your Suite Ship® docks, the world comes into view in all new, all you ways. With Avalon Choice® Excursions, you don’t just step off the ship – you step into extraordinary experiences crafted to inspire. Whether you’re drawn to art, adventure, culture, cuisine – or all the things in-between – we’ve curated multiple excursions along the world’s waterways to match your passions and your pace. With more included choices than any other river cruise line – Avalon gives you the freedom to match each moment to your passion and pace. Avalon’s exclusive Active & Discovery cruises take this concept to the next level with an average of 22 included excursions. Dock in the heart of it all. Do what you love. Discover more with Avalon.
