Useful Information

Accessibility

At Avalon Waterways, we strive to accommodate the needs of disabled and mobility-impaired travellers to the best of our abilities. However, we want to clarify that we may not always be able to fulfil every request due to certain limitations. While we make reasonable efforts to assist travellers, we cannot assume responsibility if we are unable to provide individual assistance in certain situations.

It's important to note that most of our transportation services are not equipped with wheelchair ramps. We encourage you to review our terms and conditions for further information regarding our services and their specific accommodations. To learn more about how we can assist you, please don't hesitate to contact us directly. We are here to address any questions or concerns you may have regarding your specific needs. 

Age Restrictions

In our many years of cruising experience, we have found that children under the age of eight typically are too young to fully enjoy a cruise holiday. Because of this and for the safety and enjoyment of all passengers, we do not accept children under eight years of age. In addition, please note that there are no special arrangements or activities for children on our ships.   

Smoking Policy

All ships have non-smoking interiors. Smoking is permitted only in a designated outdoor area of each ship.

Dress Code

We recommend that guests forgo dressier attire completely due to warm, humid climates. 

Special Dietary Requirements

Guests should advise of any dietary or medical issues that may affect them during their holiday. In your MyAvalon, you can notify us in advance to ensure your special request will be accommodated. 

Wi-Fi

Complimentary Wi-Fi is included on board most of our cruise, apart from Galapagos or Amazon sailings where internet service is unfortunately not available. Please note that the internet service is not always reliable and may be unavailable for part of your cruise.

Air Conditioning & Heating

All rooms on the ships are air conditioned and heated. All ships have individual controls in the staterooms.

Laundry

Laundry service is available on board for a modest fee. Check the price list in your stateroom. Clothes cannot be dry cleaned on board. For safety reasons, we ask that passengers do not iron their clothes in the staterooms as this is a safety hazard. Onboard laundry service will press your clothes for a fee. Laundry service is not available in the Galápagos.

Medical Facilities

Due to the proximity to land, onshore medical services can be called rapidly. On Amazon and Galápagos ships, first-aid-trained staff is available.

Onboard Language

The language on board is English. All staff, crew, and tour guides speak English. All announcements and commentary will be in English.

Onboard Payments

Egypt uses Egyptian Pound (EGP) as its official currency. Credit cards are accepted in Egypt, and you should have no problems using them in larger shops and restaurants. Visa and MasterCard are most accepted. Smaller shops may ask you to pay in cash or have a minimum amount required to use a credit card.
