Amsterdam to Europe - River Cruise Scenic River Scenic Jewel Reviews

The cruise took in the countries we wanted to see. We did not realise how beautiful Germany and Austria are and how peaceful river cruising is. We had booked a deluxe balcony cabin which was a bit bigger than the balcony cabins. All of the staff were amazing and were happy to engage with the passengers. The captain and crew did some fantastic sailing in difficult conditions due to flooding we ...

Do you like 5 star luxury? Well scenic jewels of Europe is for you. Our trip started with business class flights from Melbourne to Budapest via Frankfurt. Once we were greeted and transported to our spaceship we were elevated into our new home for the next 2 weeks. We were on the diamond deck with a junior balcony suite, whilst the room was nicely appointed our balcony was partially obstructed by ...

people have told me what a wonderful time they had had with this company, we were not disappointed. at all times the service was 100% with a smile & can do it immediately. the food was also excellent at all times. the organisation of our onshore tours was professional at each port of call. on board information re the next day tours, the water level etc was constantly updated for us to ...

Scenic was recommended by my sister-in-law who is a travel journalist. We had a great meeting with Scenic personnel at the Ottawa Travel Show. We chose to include three extra days at either end to visit Amsterdam and Budapest in a little more depth than the cruise would allow, The cruise itself was beyond my expectations, every possible scenario was planned and executed perfectly, so that ...

A scenic cruise is a real five star experience. It’s quite an investment, but you do get a quality experience. The crew are sensational, they were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The food was always fresh, beautifully presented and a wonderful variety at all meal times. I would strongly recommend it. The facilities & food are brilliant. Most of the tours were enjoyable and gave ...

We had to change ships on the 10th day of a 14 day cruise. Scenic was repositioning the Jewel and the Pearl due to high water problems on a prior cruise. Our comments are based on our experience on the Jewel in the first 10 days. Our experiences on the Pearl were NOT as good. The crew and staff on the Jewel were very friendly, communicative, accomodating and fun to be with. They handled a ...

We boarded the Scenic Jewel in Amsterdam for this 14 day itinerary. In each port, Scenic gives guests a choice from at least 2 excursions. First port was Antwerp, and we chose the excursion to Bruges. This town was quaint and interesting. Next stop was Veere, and we were quite impressed with the excursion to the Delta Works. We were treated to a "Dixie-land Band" after our Delta Works tour. In ...

The dates suited and this particular cruise was suggested by the Travel Agent. We thought it would be a good idea to go on the cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam en route to Sweden where were going to a 90th birthday in the Arctic Circle where we hoped to arrived in a relaxed manner - and we certainly did. It was a wonderful way to begin a journey. Everything on the Scenic Jewel was way beyond ...

We wanted a 5 star experience with nothing to worry about and Scenic was recommended. I can't express what an amazing time we had on this River Cruise. From the minute we stepped aboard until we stepped off 8 days later, we were given the Royal treatment. The excursions are of top quality, from glass boat tours through the canals of Amsterdam to Castles, cathedrals and even a Baroque ...

Very organized, they think of all the details. Glad we added a few extra days in Amsterdam through Scenic, prior to departure. We did a canal cruise in that time so after boarding the ship we could select the excursion to Volendam which gave us the opportunity to see some of the countryside including a windmill. Beautiful ship, very modern suites. The most comfie bed and pillows I've ever had, ...
