Scenic Luxury Cruises and Tours - UK Reviews

We were on Scenic Amber and the Danube river cruise was amazing in every aspect very largely due to the Scenic staff. Their planning made all aspect very smooth. Significant dietary issues was never an issue as they consulted with us every day on that day's menus. All staff were genuinely friendly and engaging. The British Airways / Amsterdam airport lost half our luggage but the Scenic staff took it upon themselves to do all the chasing on our behalf until luggage arrived some days later. The itinerary also included incredibly locations including 2 evening classical performances which were mind blowing.

Our second Scenic River Cruise. Upgraded our room this time. Did not like not being able to see out the window. Only complaint is that we found it hard to regulate the temperature - know others did too. Looking forward to travelling again - probably Douro in 2026. Staff wonderful, excursions great, food super. Love the freedom of everything having been prepaid. Everyone so looked after when it comes to disembarkation.

The quality of the food, the staff, and the ship is always very high. I regret the reduction of the nice touches to save money. For example, there is no fruit in the cabin, no chocolates on the pillow at night, and no fancy shapes from towels on the bed.

Our Bordeaux experience with Scenic was very good. What we like is having paid for the cruise everything is included and no extras are expected.

Physically the ship was amazing and well maintained. Our cabin was gorgeous. The staff were wonderful too BUT the food and the wines were not to the same standard as we had experienced when we traveled on Scenic in 2017. More style less substance, less extras, fewer choices poorer quality wines. Our experience was more four star than five star. We felt it was all about how to save money in the bars and restaurants. Such a shame.

The whole crew worked as a team with the sole object of making the cruise a huge success. The positive, friendly and attentive attitude was across the ship. The catering was of a high standard and the wines were well chosen. The 'shore visits' were interesting and varied. All in all a great week on the Danube

Everything the way the cruise was organised, the quality of the food, the service, staff everything about the cruise.

Everything was laid on Staff were soo attentive Food choice and quality exceptional Staff very knowledgeable

Everything was perfect

Our Danube cruise plus Prague was brilliant and every day brought another very interesting tour. Above all else we need to say how fantastic all the tour guides were (with only one exception). Their local knowledge was exceptional and made all the difference to the tours. The ship was very comfortable. The staff were very attentive and polite.

Such a large step ahead of the competition. The overall experience is second to none. Nothing is left to chance, Starting with your airport pickup, Your welcome aboard, you will want for nothing. The staff are total professionals. All you have to do is enjoy your stay aboard. Get lost in the amazing excursions. Always my first choice

A great group of travellers. Only 90 of us so very select. The excursions off the boat were particularly well organised.

You get every thing you could want fantastic food drinks Tours cabin service I have on a number of river cruise and by far this is the best it has spoiled us

We were on a 12 night New Zealand cruise and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Food, service and suite were all excellent. The included excursions were great, with no expense spared, e.g. lunch included.

Exceptional River Cruise. Staff all wonderful food is out of the world.

Staff and crew were exceptional. Food and drinks were excellent. Itinerary was so well thought out. Only problem was cruise being cancelled due to Storm Boris.

We had a great time, going on excursions that we could choose, or not. The food was great as was the service from the bar & restaurant staff.

Great service on board, good food and choice of venues, inclusive excursions. Comfortable cabins with an all-weather balcony with a glass panel that can be closed in cold weather. The internet facility could be improved - we sometimes had to go to the reception area to get a reliable connection.

Fabulous from start to finish. All the staff were attentive, polite and. Nothing was too much trouble. The trips and enrichment events were fabulous and we have already booked another trip with Scenic since returning home.

Paying for everything up front is ideal. The staff always look after us very well. Having the electric bikes on board is an excellent addition. The food & wine at Table La Rive were outstanding. The lunchtime bar snacks were very good as were the breakfasts. Evening meals in the main dining room were a bit disappointing and the food in the small dining room was not good.
