While other river cruise operators limit their guests to a glass of wine with dinner. On a Scenic Tours luxury river cruise, we offer complimentary spirits, beers, a wide selection of wines and cocktails, soft drinks, mineral water, coffee and tea wherever and whenever the mood takes you. Even the drinks in your mini-bar are complimentary. And that’s throughout your entire cruise.†
We include pretty much everything in the price of your holiday; spectacular experiences and flexible tours, all superb onboard meals and drinks in several venues, flights from a choice of up to 15 UK airports, or return travel by Eurostar. There are no hidden extras - we even include WiFi, port charges and tipping.
Sail aboard our impressive Scenic ‘Space-Ships’ and relax in the splendour of by far and away the most stylish and luxurious ships to be found on France’s waterways. With between just 112 and 169 guests, our ships have the feel of a contemporary five star boutique hotel. So whichever ship you sail on, you can expect a sense of space and level of luxury that you simply won’t find anywhere else.
Faultless service is one of the many reasons we were named ‘Favourite River Cruise Line’ in 2011 and 2012 at the Telegraph Travel Awards. From the finest Cruise Directors to the onboard crew and expert local guides, you’re travelling with a team committed to delivering an impeccable standard of luxury and service.
Our Scenic Enrich activities are an array of highlights expertly planned and included exclusively for our guests. Enjoy your holiday in a way that suits you, with our Scenic FreeChoice programme, allowing you to choose from a range of included activities throughout your cruise. What’s more, explore independently with Scenic Tailormade, our GPS guided tour system.
All of our onboard dining venues are complimentary, from the casual and relaxed atmosphere of the River Café* to the elegance of Portobellos Italian Restaurant and al fresco dining on the Riverview Terrace. Off-ship the dining experiences are often set in spectacular or historic settings, and range from unique delicious dinners to intimate home-cooked specialities.
Relax in your five star suite, one of the most spacious on Europe’s waterways and stroll out on to your own private, full-size balcony, complete with the ingenious Scenic ‘Sun Lounge’. One touch of a button transforms your entire balcony into a sun lounge to protect you from the elements*. Where better to relax with a drink and take in the stunning vistas than from your own private oasis?
We make every effort to ensure your cruise is a special experience that you will always remember. So, every one of our guests onboard can enjoy the personal and attentive service of a butler. No other river cruise offers this level of sophistication and luxury. Irrespective of your cabin grade, your butler will be delighted to assist you with delivering complimentary refreshments to a shoeshine and valet service.**
