Not the quality expected of this Cruise Line.
Our cruise to Greenland was supposed to include Pond Inlet in Canada. This was cancelled by Scenic with no real reason. Apparently Canadian Port / Cruise authorities were reducing the number of vessels in the area. Despite this a second Scenic vessel together to a number of other vessels were cruising the area. I assume, as the vessel was only one third occupied this was a cost saving measure with no offer of compensation offered to guests. Scenic promote themselves as the highest quality vessels in the industry. I cannot agree with this. We spent days cruising past beautiful scenery / icebergs. Unfortunately at the owners insistence the blinds in the large lounge are always closed, for the ambiance but not considering the views that we were all missing. Views from the Observation Lounge are restricted by outside railings which interferes with the views. Food in the buffet breakfast/ lunch although extensive was usually luke warm at best. There is some quality provisions as you would expect, entertainment was limited but excellent, cabins very nice but style over substance ( no sink plug option in bathroom sinks! Therefore continuing running water for washing/ shaving. Lectures and staff excellent.
