Scenic River Scenic Jasper Cruise Reviews

An acquaintance recommended Scenic to me. We chose the Danube cruise with the Prague extension. Our first problem was arriving at Frankfurt airport: there was a holiday in Germany and as a result three long delays to get to our gate, so we missed our flight. Then Prague was unseasonably cold and many of us were not dressed for it. We had many upsides in Prague. The breakfast buffet was really ...

Gems of the Danube river cruise (my husband and I were actual paying cruisers on the Jasper just 11 days ago. We were not compensated in any way to write this review) We did online research of several cruise lines. We were particularly looking at the excursions offered on various cruise lines. We felt Scenic offered a good variety of choices. Some active choices and some less active ...

We had been on one before and were very happy with it. The service is excellent and we wanted to see places that we had never been to before. We knew that the shore excursions would be interesting and the service on board would be good. There was only one little thing that we found fault with, and that was at breakfast we often had to wait some time before our tea and coffee was served. Other than ...

We were very fortunate it was a gift from our children for our anniversary. The Cruise Director Richard was wonderful. He bent over backwards to negotiate the low river levels and other small problems. He was a delight in the lounge for the cruise briefings and had a terrific sense of humour. The meals were out of this world. The service and servers were outstanding. Our room was kept clean at all ...

Friends choose this cruise. The ship was in very good condition, and the rooms were large for a river cruise and well laid out, shower was good sized. Good points regarding the cruise: Good ports and high quality excursion guides Breakfast and Lunch were easy to serve yourself and there was an abundance of food The local entertainment on the ship was well done, offered on 2 ...

My wife and I booked an 11-day Scenic Gems of the Danube cruise as a 20th anniversary present to ourselves. It was recommended by my travel agent. This was also a trip that was on our bucket list. Just a few days before leaving for our trip, I was advised by my travel agent that the rivers in Europe were experiencing low water levels due to the hot, dry summer. We were scheduled to be on the ...

It looked luxurious and was all inclusive, albeit very expensive. Paperwork from Scenic was very thin and confusing. Ship was changed a week or so beforehand to an older vessel when low water on the Danube became a problem. The ship change was no issue in itself but it was clear that the low water was going to cause huge disruption. We hardly moved for the first days and then had four days when we ...

We chose Scenic because it had been rated as one of the top 3 river cruise lines. We booked one of two "Panoramic Suites" (#337) and spent a small fortune to have this experience....the "river cruise" experience. For us, it was more about the ship and the trip down the Danube, our deluxe (fabulous) cabin and our butler (Christian, who by the way, was excellent). The day trips were an ...

We chose this cruise because we had sailed on Scenic before and had a memorable experience. This particular cruise was a adventure. We were warned prior to the cruise that there was low water levels on the Danube and we might have to do a transfer which was fine. On September 22 we were given notice that the ship would not procede past Regensburg and there was a option for passengers to return ...

Our first river cruise! We called Scenic on September 9th to see if re-scheduling our Danube cruise was warranted (we were aware of low water levels). We were told no; there was a possibility of a ship swap if necessary. On September 18 (we were already in Prague), we received an email from Scenic informing us we would be boarding the Jasper instead of the Amber as originally planned. Upon ...
