Almost prefect
"We couldn't fault the food quality ,the portions at first seemed small but were actually perfect,the captains table was a highlight ,the Italian restaurant less so ,quite big portions and not as good as the main restaurant ,but again the staff were great.The final day was also disappointing ,a hard sell on giving good reviews for the staff and a deadline of having to fill in the survey sent to you email before you left the ship...."Read More

After being very warmly welcomed by front desk staff, we started to learn about river cruising. Our cabin was very comfortable (Deluxe Balcony on Diamond Deck) with all the amenities you could ever want. Lots of on-screen entertainment options, so we re-watched some Bond films over the evenings. On Scenic Jasper, the Crystal Dining Room is the only actual dining room. Portobello’s is a small ...

We sailed from Budapest to Amsterdam on Scenic Jasper departing April 24, 2023. We were very excited about our first river cruise. It was a lovely experience. However, we didn't feel Scenic lived up to all of the hype it gets as a 5-Star cruise line. I'm not sure what kind of high tech gadgets they're talking about having. They didn't even have USB outlets in the cabins. The app we used on our ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

This cruise was highly recommended by several friends who had done many scenic and other cruises. Obviously scenic came out on top and this was the cruise we chose - with absolutely no regrets. The fact that we had to change ships because of low water levels only added to the adventure. The next down side was the comparison of ships. The Jasper was every bit as luxurious as anticipated, but the ...

We loved the length of the trip...18 days. When you have a long flight you want a long itinerary. The staff was friendly and attentive. Most of the excursions were top notch. Staff was constantly at work to make sure everything was as clean as possible. Musicians and dancers who were brought onboard were very talented and we enjoyed them very much. Unfortunately the dance floor is so tiny ...

Is River Cruising style over substance?

Our second river cruise and also with Scenic. This time on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Basel rather that the Danube. We have also done river cruises on the Mississippi, the Amazon and the St Lawrence as well as 20 ocean cruises However although we enjoyed our cruise overall I am not convinced that river cruising in Europe is about style over substance and because of that it was over 6 years ...

Joined friends on a Christmas Market River Cruise. We had booked two nights pre cruise and two nights post cruise in local hotels.Three days before we left home, Scenic changed our hotel from a 5 Star to a 3.5 star hotel. the business office insisted that this was considered an upgrade for us. The two nights were over $650. USD Embarkation as well as disembarkation were very smooth. The ...

Good points regarding the cruise: Good ports and high quality excursion guides Breakfast and Lunch were easy to serve yourself and there was an abundance of food The local entertainment on the ship was well done, offered on 2 ...

We chose this cruise because we had sailed on Scenic before and had a memorable experience. This particular cruise was a adventure. We were warned prior to the cruise that there was low water levels on the Danube and we might have to do a transfer which was fine. On September 22 we were given notice that the ship would not procede past Regensburg and there was a option for passengers to return ...

The ship was beautiful. The common rooms were large and inviting! The restaurant food was good 3.5/4 out of 5, but the waitstaff was amazing!!!! The food presentation was lovely! The portions were good sized, meaning non-American portions which was a good thing! The alcohol was top brands and a nice to even a heavy pour. The wine was lovely at every meal. The dining experience was great! ...
