Avalon Waterways has announced the expansion of its popular Storyteller Series, which features celebrities and experts who host themed cruises for travelers seeking unique experiences. The latest addition to the series is Scottish actor Graham McTavish, known for his roles as Dougal McKenzie and William "Buck" MacKenzie in the hit Starz television series 'Outlander.'
McTavish will be hosting a special itinerary on the Rhine River, called "Kiltn' It: Facts, Fiction & Fairytale Settings on the Rhine," which will sail from Basel to Amsterdam on October 12, 2024. This is an excellent opportunity for travelers to immerse themselves in the world of 'Outlander' and experience the Rhine's stunning landscape and rich history.
The president of Avalon Waterways, Pamela Hoffee, announced the news during the general session of the second annual ASTA River Cruise Expo, which was held at the InterContinental in Budapest. She shared that the company had produced a promotional video featuring McTavish last year, which received an overwhelming positive response from social media users. Many users commented that they would book an Avalon cruise if McTavish were sailing, and the company took note.
Hoffee emphasized that Avalon always prioritizes its guests' preferences and interests when designing its products. The Storyteller Series is an excellent example of this commitment, as it provides travelers with exclusive access to notable personalities and experts in various fields.
For those interested in joining McTavish on his Kiltn' It Storyteller Cruise, they can expect to hear fascinating insights into the making of 'Outlander' and its Scottish roots. Guests will also have the chance to visit fairytale-like settings and learn about the Rhine's rich history and cultural significance.
