July 14, 2013 Saone and Rhone River cruise with Scenic Tours, 14 days
We were not familiar with Scenic Tours but booked their Rhone river cruise because of the itinerary. It seemed very expensive, but it is an all-inclusive, so tips, alcohol and all of the tours were included in the price. We had a fabulous 2 week holiday on the Scenic Emerald and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys smooth sailing, the ability to walk directly into small towns along the river, and who loves food and wine.
Accommodations: Our cabin was comfortable and had plenty of closet space. We had a balcony large enough for 2 chairs and a table, which we would sit on in the morning and have our coffee and in the evening with a glass of wine and thento feed the swans that kept swimming by! Our bathroom had a Villeroy and Bosch sink, a large shower with great water pressure, and LOccitane products. Our stewardess cleaned the room twice a day, and refilled our bar with juice, pop and alcohol.We had a butler who would bring us food, drink or press our clothes, all included in the price.
