This was our 3rd trip on Scenic and we will continue to stay with them as the service is impeccable and the inclusive theme is wonderful. The food is varied with something for every taste & great wine selections as we traveled down the river. All of the excursions were well thought out and as they are early in the day you get to miss the rush of tourists and then spend the rest of the day either floating down the river or exploring a town on your own (using the tailor made device that gives you information about where you are). The cruise director kept it lively and all activities went on without a hitch- including the first and last days. If you want a vacation the takes you away, mixes you with interesting travelers in a small number, I would definitely recommend river cruising in general and this company's fleet in particular.
