  • Cruising elevated: For clients keen on unparalleled experiences and relaxed luxury, Avalon is where it’s at. Or where it’s sailing! With their modern, award-winning Suite Ships averaging only 150 guests – some much less – every cruiser has the space, time, and attention they deserve on their holiday. Aboard, guests enjoy the perfect blend of elegance and ease, where little touches are bold, gestures are grand, and the views even grander.  
  • The Avalon key point-of-difference: Avalon features the industry’s only Open-Air Balconies with the cruise industry’s widest-opening windows. From Avalon’s boutique-hotel-inspired Panorama Suites, guests can even watch the ever-changing scenery from their decadent Comfort Collection beds! 
  • Avalon Choice: Onboard one of Avalon’s cruises (there are 66 cruises to choose from across 24 countries) guests revel in a wide-ranging menu of daily excursions, from Classic to Active to Discovery. Your clients can experience the holiday of their dreams with every Avalon sailing.  

Globus 

While each Globus tour includes the legendary landmarks and must-see sights, they also share off-the-beaten-path surprises and immersive insider experiences you wouldn't find travelling on your own
