Luxury Europe River Cruises
Scenic
Life on the rivers
A
Locked Rivers To make traversing these rivers accessible and seamless, water locks were added. A lock is essentially an elevator by which ships can be raised or lowered to overcome the water level disparities between different sections of the rivers. Europe’s waterways are filled with locks and the Main-Danube Canal alone has 16 locks, some as high as 25 metres. The invention of the water locks is a true engineering marvel with Italian scientist and artist, Leonardo da Vinci, providing clever designs to perfect the process. Watching your Captain expertly manoeuvre your Space-Ship through these narrow locks is a treat.
A L’Amour, Scenic Diamond B Our Captains are experts at navigating the historic waters C Ship locks are engineering marvels along Europe’s rivers
Constant State of Flux Our state-of-the-art Scenic Space-Ships are designed to convert easily to slide under bridges and cruise shallow waters. However, despite detailed planning, some days Mother Nature simply doesn’t co-operate. High or low water levels lead to lock closures and difficulties passing under bridges. Our local offices in Europe monitor levels closely to handle all navigation issues in a timely and efficient manner to minimise disruptions.
Itinerary Deviations A deviation can be a minor inconvenience, a prolonged change or an extended disruption depending on the specific circumstances on the rivers at that time. These generally occur when a ship can’t pass through or stop in a section of the river due to water levels, a closed lock or river obstruction.
Life on the rivers
Scenic°

As your 5-star floating hotel cruises through some of the most iconic waterways of Europe, not only will you witness Mother Nature at her best, but also human engineering at its finest.
B
C
What does an itinerary deviation look like? How could it impact my trip and how might I be compensated?
Minor Disruption
Coaches transfer guests from their original Space-Ship to a new one on the other side of the obstruction. These “ship swaps” are performed with the least impact possible with your Cruise Director accompanying you onto the new ship with all belongings. You will be accommodated in a suite of the same type and value; should this not be possible you will be compensated the difference in the value of the suites.
Prolonged Disruption
Coaches may be used to transfer guests to included sightseeing locations, while continuing to be accommodated on your Scenic Space-Ship. A prolonged disruption may also require the Space-Ships to continuously cruise without stopping for touring. Under Scenic’s River Cruise Cover you will be compensated between $100-$200 per person, per day of the disruption should we not be able to fulfill the sightseeing listed in the itinerary.
Extended/Major Disruption
Accommodation may need to be provided off-ship in hotels with all meals provided. To the best of our ability, we ensure hotels are of a similar standard to your SpaceShip. Meals will be included, however, alcoholic drinks and amenities such as butler service, may or may not be included. Touring is by coach. As we understand this experience will not be same as being on board the Space-Ship, under Scenic’s River Cruise Cover you will be compensated based on the suite category booked, between $300-$800 per person, per day for up to seven days. Alternatively, a full refund for the remainder of the cruise should you choose to disembark and end your journey.

We saw sites that I did not know existed - some of the smaller towns we docked at were spectacular and if we hadn’t done the cruise there is little chance we would ever have seen them.
Castles along the Rhine Be transported to a world of fairy tales and legends as you pass wonderous castles, each with their own enchanting tale to tell. The wonder of catching that first glimpse of a castle that appears never wanes.
The postcard-perfect Moselle Countless postcard moments await while cruising down the picturesque Moselle River. Be captivated by the scenery, bespeckled with flourishing vineyards, medieval architecture and quaint towns.
Curious towns and mighty cities Every day during your Europe river cruise, you’ll be wonder-struck by the kaleidoscope of quaint villages steeped in history, juxtaposed by the vibrant cosmopolitan cities.
Enriching evening concerts During your river cruise, you will spend a magical evening at a Scenic Enrich classical concert. Your opulent surrounds and the music composed by legends will delight and ignite the senses.

Jewels of Europe 15 Day Cruise
Amsterdam > Budapest
Grand palaces and fairytale castles A region steeped in the history of ancient trade routes, today the rivers of the Rhine, Main and Danube meander through forested hillsides, idyllic vineyards and romantic towns. Restored castles still stand watch from their position atop dramatic hilltops, just as they did in the days of feudal knights and land barons. However, today the sites of ancient battles and medieval skirmishes have been replaced by a tranquil countryside with thriving towns and villages. Elsewhere, romantic ruins echo with a timeless beauty and Gothic spires rise out of the picturesque communities nestled along the river banks. This is a journey that will take you through the Europe of your imagination, full of wonder, recalling medieval jousts, cobbled streets and childhood fairytales while creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Combine this cruise with a City Stay in Paris, Prague and/or Floriade. See pages 120 & 122.

Romantic Rhine & Moselle 15 Day Cruise
Zurich > Amsterdam
Romance is alive and well on the Rhine Anyone who doesn’t believe in the power of romance has never travelled along the Rhine or its idyllic tributary, the Moselle. In fact, on this itinerary, there’s probably a fairytale moment waiting just beyond the next river bend. The castles that grace this region sometimes seem as if they were lifted straight from the silver screen – hardly surprising as it’s a region that’s long been favoured by Hollywood directors. From Lorelei, the Rhine river siren said to lure sailors to their demise, to the legendary Black Forest, which still resonates with imaginative children’s tales, there are stories of romances galore to discover and delight in. You may even compose a few new ones of your own.

Beautiful Bordeaux 11 Day Cruise
Bordeaux > Bordeaux
Where romance meets reality The name Bordeaux has always evoked impressions of quiet sensual pleasure, where the civilised and the natural coexist in easy harmony, and wine lovers are free to engage in their favourite pastime – savouring the world’s finest wines. In fact, the reality of Bordeaux is not that different from the romantic impression most people have of it. Extraordinary landscapes, delicious fare prepared with the finesse characteristic of the French, winemaking that has been refined to an art, and a wealth of historical riches, from elegant châteaux to churches that have been around for longer than most of the new world. Visit Grand Cru Classé wine estates, explore the Cognac region and sample its famous brandy, or fresh oysters from the waters of Arcachon Bay. You’ll find that beautiful Bordeaux is everything you imagined it to be, and more.

“
For many of my fellow guests, the ravishing Douro countryside with its dramatic vineyard terraces, dry craggy hills and bustling port towns will be the most memorable part of this 11 day cruise, but for me it will be the enthusiasm, good humour and genuine warmth of our Portuguese hosts, especially those on Scenic Azure, that will stay with me.

Unforgettable Douro 11 Day Cruise
Porto > Porto
A truly timeless place Portugal’s Douro River winds its way through towns that have somehow managed to preserve their distinctive culture and way of life, even as the world all around them has succumbed to change. From elegant Lamego to Regua and Vega de Terron, you’ll find that people still ply their traditional trades in the historic pockets of the Douro Valley. The vineyards that grace the banks of the Douro are worked the way vineyards in the region always have been. The wines they produce, from the many highly loved varieties of port, to their fine unfortified reds and whites, are as rich and plentiful as ever. The fare is as honest and as delicious as it was in days of yore. And, most refreshing of all, the communities are every bit as friendly and welcoming.
