From “proscht” to “prost” and “santé” to “egészségedre” nothing says “cheers” like included drinks. Beginning in 2023, river cruise operator Avalon Waterways will raise the spirits of its guests at Happy Hour on Suite Ships across Europe with free house beer, wine and spirits as well as a featured cocktail of the day.

“Next year, we’re inviting guests to toast an exhilarating afternoon and kick-off a lively evening on our European cruises with complimentary drinks at Happy Hour,” said Pam Hoffee, president of Avalon Waterways.

“It’s just another way Avalon is invested in hosting guests and every moment of their elevated cruising vacation through Europe.”

Avalon guests were already invited to sample regional wines and beers with lunch and dinner.
