Scenic River Senior Cruises Reviews

My wife and I wanted to return to Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna and Scenic offered this ideal river cruise. This was our first one with Scenic and truly every aspect of the cruise was All Inclusive. The attention of the crew was outstanding and amazingly quickly many of them named us. The cabin was extremely well appointed and for us the availability of a table for two in the restaurant ...

We chose this cruise as we particularly wanted to see the light show at the old submarine base and also wanted to visit Remy Martin. We also wanted to do several french wine tastings which this cruise also gave us the opportunity to do. My husband really enjoyed the visit to Remy Martin. The best winery visit was Chateau Lagrange. Very good tour and organised wine tasting. on the other hand the ...

First time cruisers, wanted to do this cruise for years, decided to go up-market since we liked the idea of a smaller boat. Transfer arrangements worked well, all we had to do was be at the appointed time and place. Balcony cabin was more spacious than we expected and well designed with plenty of storage. Excellent sound insulation between cabins. Bed very comfortable and bigger than ...

I booked this cruise within 4 weeks of sailing and luckily I got the last cabin. I had liked what Scenic offered with their all inclusive pricing and had planned for over a year but ended up last minute booking it due to health issues. We were not disappointed. Everything was great, food, service, wines, staff and excursions. The entertainment on board just hit the right level for us. We were ...

Since Scenic caters to mainly the Australian market, we found ourselves booking this cruise to meet up with our Australian friends. There was a mix of Canadians, Brits, and Americans. This was a Rhine, Mosel River itinerary with 14 nights on board ship. The ship had propeller problems from the first night which meant transferring the passengers to a hotel for two nights, and then returning to ...

My wife and I are both in our early sixties and this was our first river cruise. I did a lot of research among the multiple companies and chose to go with Scenic. Best Choice !!! All was excellent from the ship, balcony suite on the sapphire deck, ships crew, food, drink, entertainment, excursions, people, and of course the weather. Cant say enough about the crew. They all work very hard to ...

We heard that Scenic was a great trip to do and we wanted to try a river cruise instead of a sea cruise. We also wanted a cruise that was all inclusive and did not have a lot of people on board. The cruise was amazing with beautiful sights to see as we traveled along the river. The crew were very helpful and nothing was too much for them to do for us. The food was beautifully presented and ...

Luxury crusing at its best. Although our tour was booked on the Jewel, we actually sailed on the sister ship the Jade, due to prior water level. On arrival we were greated by friendly staff that quickly became like family. The rooms are spacious and beds are top quality. Our personal butler, cabin steward, bar staff, wait staff, activities crew members and all others behind the scenes were ...

Due to high water levels we started our cruise on the Scenic Ruby from Budapest. We joined the Scenic Crystal in Rudesheim. We we were therefore able to compare the two ships. Ruby is older but basically the same as Crystal except Crystal has Deluxe Balcony rooms which we had booked. The Ruby was in better condition than Crystal. Crystal had ripped and stained carpets. We found the staff, ...
