Scenic River Budapest Cruise Reviews

Although the staff were very nice & mostly tried their best, the priority is for Scenic's needs -passengers and their requests are very low on the list.! They have an inflexible attitude toward problems or suggestions & suffer a lack any empathy & the motto seems to be ' don't provide unless it's asked for several times first' Our cabin was missing items which took several requests to ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to get the maximum exposure to Europe. We booked this 23 day cruise from Bucharest to Amsterdam with Scenic because we expected the very best in excursions, food and accommodations with everything included and Scenic delivered. We had great excursions for 21 of the 23 days, all included. There were numerous choices for each destination, all of them ...

Well, first of all, we did not cruise on Scenic Crystal but on Scenic Jade. Obviously this website has not caught up with the late change. We believe the boats are more or less identical but, obviously, any comments on here refer to SCENIC JADE, which is the boat we actually cruised on. Our (very short) cruise was great: lovely "cabins" with a king-size bed, all mod-cons and a balcony with a huge ...

Having cruised with Scenic before , we thought we knew what to expect and we weren't disappointed. The facilities, the cabins, restaurants and bar are all you could possibly wish for, but what stands out are the crew. Attentive, polite, but most importantly, open, friendly and always happy to chat. The excursions were excellent, although some of the bus journeys were upwards of two hours ...

The employees of the Scenic Amber were nothing short of amazing. They couldn’t do enough for us. From the moment we boarded the ship, they pampered us. Our cruise director, Cathy was so energetic, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and available. The restaurant and bar staff, especially Michael, Sandy, Alex, Aleksandar, Katerina, Viktorya, and Andrei were so professional, friendly and hard working. And ...

This Scenic Danube river cruise plus Oberammergau was a once in a lifetime event. Almost everything was perfect, and it was a truely five star all inclusive experience. I had a single cabin with a balcony which was especially built for solo travelers. This made the single supplement relatively reasonable. I especially liked the Scenic app which had a personal narrative keyed to each portion of the ...

Wonderful cruise. Only 2nd one post Covid closure and the crew and staff couldn’t do enough for us. Absolutely wonderful job they did. Everything looked after including Mercedes taxi from home to airport. Super clean cabin, with butler. Replenished drinks fridge twice a day ( included in price). Three fantastic meals - buffet breakfast and lunch and three course waiter dinner. Everything ...

We've been on a Scenic river cruise before, but this one exceeded the last. Of course, with it being a Christmas Markets river cruise - that helped, but the staff on board just seemed to go the extra mile. Richard, the Tour Director was just incredible. He made everything seem like such an adventure - his descriptions of each stop and the optional excursions were just outstanding. He ...

I first want to mention some statistics about our cruise: There were about 160 people on the ship: 10 people from Canada, 10 people from the US, about 30 people from New Zealand, and the rest were from Australia. The cruise director is from Austria, one waitress is from Poland, and most of the staff is from Serbia. So you'll definitely meet interesting people from around the world! There ...

My husband and I splurged on a Scenic cruise to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We enjoyed the location and ship but most of all we found the staff, service and ship atmosphere to be amazing. We really enjoyed that the emphasis was on having fun and enjoying the trip instead of dressing up for dinner. We found that the food was excellent and the cruise director was extremely organized ...
