Scenic Sapphire on the Rhone
Excellent Rhone cruise, 26 August. We were very impressed with our first Scenic cruise. Excellent organisation to get us to and from the cruise ports, via Eurostar. Shore trips were very well organised and we appreciated that like virtually everything else on the trip they were at no extra cost, being included in the initial price. Our total bill at checkout was 25 euros, as my wife had a very professional manicure in the Spa.. The European staff of 46 hospitality and 7 boat-crew were brilliant. Drinks were always available, whether in the cabin or elsewhere, and served with a smile. We enjoyed the food - buffet style at breakfast and lunch, with seated service for dinner. At the welcome reception on the first evening, the excellent Dutch cruise director asked the 148 passengers to raise their hands if they had cruised with Scenic before. I would guesstimate that about 120 hands went up! We thought, as first-timers, this was a very good omen for a great cruise, and it is exactly what happened. Our one and only slight disappointment was the small cabin size, approx 100 sq. ft. without the bathroom and balcony. However we shall be very happy to join the Scenic Frequent Floaters in the future!
