Definitely not what we expected since our last year's cruise with Scenic

My husband and I chose this cruise as we throughly enjoyed our Christmas Cruise on the Rhine last year, it was so fantastic that when a sale came up on the River cruises I booked another one expecting the same level of service as before. This was not the case, first we received an email that our ship had been changed, not a problem. Then the day that we are to board we received another email ...

Wanting to avoid the health issues of some of the larger cruises, I chose this cruise because it was advertised as a small ship with not too many passengers. My travelling partner and I were told by our agent that there would be about 80 passengers. There were 180 passengers aboard ship. The staff was magnificent, always smiling, always wanting to go the extra mile except when it came to illness. ...

I booked this cruise within 4 weeks of sailing and luckily I got the last cabin. I had liked what Scenic offered with their all inclusive pricing and had planned for over a year but ended up last minute booking it due to health issues. We were not disappointed. Everything was great, food, service, wines, staff and excursions. The entertainment on board just hit the right level for us. We were ...

Magical trip through Europe by river

We heard that Scenic was a great trip to do and we wanted to try a river cruise instead of a sea cruise. We also wanted a cruise that was all inclusive and did not have a lot of people on board. The cruise was amazing with beautiful sights to see as we traveled along the river. The crew were very helpful and nothing was too much for them to do for us. The food was beautifully presented and ...

We arrived 2 days ahead of departure to explore Amsterdam. Beautiful city with very colourful houses and canals everywhere. Public transit was amazing-train station, subway streetcars and buses everywhere. The Royal Owner's Suite was incredible. Seating area, wine fridge, king size adjustable bed, walk-in closet, amazing bathroom with tub, double vanities, rain shower, balcony with roll-down ...

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 ...

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 ...

I loved this particular cruise, my only complaint, it wasn't long enough! What I love about my Scenic experience is how pampered and relaxed I feel with every aspect of the cruising experience. From the moment I arrive on the dock and my luggage is taken from me until I depart for my final destination on the last morning I don't have to think of a single thing and yet everything I could ...

In a word - disappointing!

Scenic provide good value if you are looking for average and you’re travelling on a budget. If you’re looking for quality and pay for a premium- it’s disappointing. The notion of quality premium wines is a joke. As for food - it was mixed - we had to jump on the Scenic Ruby after flooding on the Danube and their food was excellent. The food on the Scenic Crystal was not good - 5 meals were ...

We chose it as it was the best way to go to all the places we wanted to go and see all the most amazing places we did. Everything was planned out so well plus you get free time to do your own thing and spend more time looking around all the most beautiful buildings and quant little towns. there is so much to see and at least 4 different options to pick from every day, and if you decided to stay ...
