Avalon River cruise with bikes available
 

Considering an Active river cruise on the Danube - usually several options of included excursions available when docked, including bikes and hikes. Has anyone done one of these lately? All the other posts I found here on European Rive Cruises are several years old. We would be doing this in late April of 2023, flying from Orlando to Budapest, flying back from Prague. This 11 night trip includes 3 hotel nights. Any comments appreciated.

I just returned from a Rhine River cruise on Emerald with a 3 day extension in Switzerland. (Cruise The World With Peace Of Mind - Emerald Cruises - Emerald Cruises) There were always active choices available as well as the standard tours. The active tours were hiking or biking depending on location. The bikes were e-bikes.

When deciding which river cruise company to choose we narrowed it down to Avalon and Emerald. We went with Emerald because all gratuities were included.

I just returned from a 16 day Avalon river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest. While I did not bike, they were available on board and some folks rode them between stops.

I really enjoyed by cruise. Beautiful ships (Artistry II and Tapestry II - had to change ships because of low water level - only once).

My wife's best friend has cruised both the Danube and the Rhine,
She loved it.
All those activities were available at stops along the way, but she was partially disabled, and did her own thing at stopovers.
Wife and I are not cruise people, but did use the cruise lines itinerary some years ago to drive the Rhine. (On the roads of course!)
Wonderful area. Steeped in history and scenery.
