Scenic Europe Cruise Reviews

This was our second cruise, and second with Scenic; the holiday fully justified our decision to travel with them again. Almost everything about the trip was perfect, from airport transfers at the start through to the final day. The ship, Scenic Azure, was in excellent condition; the public areas were always clean (and kept clean throughout the day). Our balcony suite was comfortable, ...

The ship is updated, clean and the staff are friendly and accommodating. That said, I have a few safety concerns for anyone even with slight mobility issues. There are no grab bars in/around the shower. Although the ship is relatively stable on the river, there are occasional movements (locks/docking) that could cause one to lose their balance. The ship has multiple outlets (only ...

High quality fittings and excellent amenities So much ace food - big variety and of highest quality Very large range of drinks included 24 / 7 . Local wines a highlight . Local ports unbelievable Great range of organised tours - learnt so much about portugal culture and the ...

The original cruise booking was for April 2020, but COVID got in the way delaying to our 5th attempt in October 2022. A really first-class cruise. Great staff, mainly Portuguese, superb accommodation, exceptional food and service and memorable side trips. Whilst the ship is 6 years old, its facilities are up with the more modern river ships. This experience could not have been handled ...

This was the second Scenic cruise we were on. The first was so much better than the second. There were about 20 Americans and over 100 Brits, with the balance from Canada and one Australian couple. Before I get to the particulars of the cruise, I would like to bring up one important point, The Price. When we got to talking with the other cruisers, we found out that the Brits paid from one fourth ...

We heard positive reviews of Scenic, but this cruise was better than expectations. We began with the precruise in Lisbon, where we had a nice review of the city and met a small group from our cruise (@ 20 people). This group consisted of some of the most interesting and fun people we've met, and we became friends quickly. Once on the ship, not only did we meet more interesting passengers, but ...

We choose this cruise to celebrate my wife's 80th birthday We were on the 3rd deck Veranda suite at rear and could not sleep for motor noise. It was very unfortunate that a flu type bug went through the boat day two, people were coughing everywhere we were both really affected and missed a couple of days excursions, no assistance from staff or medication available. The regimented dining ...

This was our first river cruise and first time traveling post-COVID. Scenic exceeded our expectations. Service was excellent. Staff could not have been more attentive. Having several tour choices in each port was a treat. Salzburg luncheon and show was held in an eye opening location, just like the movie. Concert at Palais LIchtenstein was the highlight of the cruise. All meals were varied ...

We were recommended the Douro river by friends we met on our last cruise and having been on most European rivers we decided to take up their recommendation. We chose Scenic because we have been on a few of their holidays and like the package they offer as well as the service from boarding onwards. We have to add that they a not very 'user friendly' company beforehand with documents etc arriving at ...

It was our first overseas holiday for over three years and there was more than a little trepidation as my wife and I waited for our flight to Lyon and the start of our "Spectacular South of France" river cruise. Would Scenic's very high standards be maintained in the face of Covid and its associated problems? Would the Scenic crew still be of the very highest quality as they have, in the past, ...
