Great river boat, Avalon just ok

October

Pros: Hotel and boat

Cons: lack of flexibility. Avalon made no effort to accommodate my food allergy.

Recommended: Yes

The tour hit all the major sites. however the tour lacked flexibility and was run at a pace for college students even though almost all in the group were retired. Avalon did not handle problems well. as long as things went as planned it was fine. some one bag goes missing and all 40 of us get to stand around for a hour ect. Loved the hotels and boat. The meals away from them provided by Avalon were cheap and not flexible. no drink was provided. If you didn't want of couldn't eat the ready-made meal you were out of luck.
