Rhine River Cruise - Zuzrich to Amsterdam

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Scenic Crystal

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

We have always wanted to do a river cruise and the Rhine River cruise of 8 days seemed perfect. We arrived in Zurich the day before the cruise left, which we would recommend. Scenic found us the lovely hotel. The pick up to take us to the Basel, Switzerland departure was very well organized. We had a lovely welcome when we arrived on board the ship by cruise director, Richard. He was amazing. ...

Extremely Disappointed on Scenic

We heard Scenic offered a level of luxury and service that just did not deliver. We selected this cruise due to the itinerary and timeframe. Their guide communication system just flat out does not work but they insisted on continuing to use it. This was very frustrating and wasted considerable time. They need to go back to the VOX system used by other cruise lines. The excursions were very ...

Definitely not what we expected since our last year's cruise with Scenic

My husband and I chose this cruise as we throughly enjoyed our Christmas Cruise on the Rhine last year, it was so fantastic that when a sale came up on the River cruises I booked another one expecting the same level of service as before. This was not the case, first we received an email that our ship had been changed, not a problem. Then the day that we are to board we received another email ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

Wanting to avoid the health issues of some of the larger cruises, I chose this cruise because it was advertised as a small ship with not too many passengers. My travelling partner and I were told by our agent that there would be about 80 passengers. There were 180 passengers aboard ship. The staff was magnificent, always smiling, always wanting to go the extra mile except when it came to illness. ...

Our cruise started in Bucharest, Romania, where we went on a four day tour of Transylvania before our cruise. this tour was very good and we highly recommend that people do this if you have the time. We visited some beautiful towns and castles in the mountainous centre of Romania. After returning to Bucharest, we joined the rest of the guests for dinner in the Marriott. The next day we were bussed ...

The cruse taken was the "Treasures of the Rhine" not "Danube Discovery" the ships were swooped over due to low water levels on the Danube, but the name of the ship is correct. We have cruised with Scenic twice prior and have to say on both previous occasions the cruise, the ship and the staff were all excellent, hence why we had no reservations in booking with Scenic again. On arrival at ...

Every evening meal was both to look forward to and to enjoy whilst in the restaurant : especially Portobello. Hard working , friendly and always approachable folk in the Restaurant ( one of us coeliac ) and really helpful Cruise Director and Assistant. Lack of water in the Danube caused us to have two unexpected bus transfers , but well done and fabulous hotel in Budapest . All tour guides ...

This was supposed to be a culinary cruise in one of the best wine region of the world. We were served ordinary food and cheap wines by unknowledgeable personnel. Even the cocktails were poorly executed. We had an invited French chef on board for one dinner and it made all the difference from our roumanian chef. It’s the end of the season and the dining room personnel seemed tired and ...

We recently completed a 15-day river cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam on Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours, and, well, some good and some bad. As to the bad, it likely put us off Scenic enough that we won’t cruise with them again. This was not our first cruise, but it was our first river cruise. Realizing that river cruising differed from ocean cruising I watched a lot of videos, so got a pretty ...
