Ship Description
The minute you step on board the Avalon Imagery you know she's different. The Avalon Imagery® introduces a new type of ship to cruising. The navigational bridge is located in the stern, behind the passenger section, allowing for a more spacious and gracious interior design. The lounge and restaurant, located in the front of the vessel, give unimpeded views of the passing landscape. In addition, the Sky Deck is vast for sunning, taking pictures, or simply just relaxing.
Avalon Imagery® features the Silent Drive System (SDS) created to enhance guest experiences. SDS features ship engines located at the stern, separating it from the passenger compartment, allowing for a quieter cruise experience than traditional small ships.The airy feel and the spectacular views you'll enjoy on this modern, spacious vessel and the friendliness and unsurpassed personal service of the English-speaking staff on board and on shore always make you feel welcome.

Some have picture windows, while those on the Royal and Sapphire Deck have a unique French balcony from which to enjoy the passing scenery.
