Scenic Jasper - Jewels of Europe cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest 30/9 (not 25/9)
We chose Scenic as they are supposed to be one of the best and this bucket list trip was a treat for my husband who had just celebrated his 70th birthday.
First of all, let me say that it is a very nice-looking ship and obviously quite new with nice décor and furnishings. WE had a balcony cabin which was very ...
We were impressed even before we boarded for our cruise!
On the day before sailing we found the dock and boarded to ask a few questions. The staff was quite pleasant and accommodating. This was definitely a different experience than an ocean cruise.
We brought our luggage to the ship around 11 am on the first day and they stored it while we ate lunch and then left the ship to explore ...
Scenic provides an excellent cruise with a very high level of service. Everyone on staff made every effort to provide the highest level of service. The multiple options for shore excursions meets the needs of all passengers. Transfers and tour guides are top notch. They provide a device to provide information about places you pass along the way. This helps while away the cruising time.

This was an excellent cruise with superb accommodation, food and helpful and attentive crew. Our Panoramic suite was well fitted out. We could find no fault. Our butler provided extremely good service, nothing was too much trouble. Our fridge was kept well stocked but was little used as drinks were available at all times in the bar. The house manager, George(not the correct spelling), was ...
Friends had been on this cruise & highly recommended it. Our whole experience was terrific. Our cabin was really comfortable, well-appointed & well serviced. We had lots of great options for shore excursions, most of which were both entertaining & educational, with many “Ah-hah” moments. All but one of our guides were well informed & entertaining.
All through the cruise we had a terrific food ...
We loved the length of the trip...18 days. When you have a long flight you want a long itinerary. The staff was friendly and attentive. Most of the excursions were top notch. Staff was constantly at work to make sure everything was as clean as possible.
Musicians and dancers who were brought onboard were very talented and we enjoyed them very much. Unfortunately the dance floor is so tiny ...
We had friends who have traveled with Scenic and they all said how great it was.. So we tried it and it was beyond our expectations. Our room was great and we loved the fact that your room felt bigger by leave the sliding doors open and you could sit on the deck and not have the window open or have it open however you wanted. There was lots of closet space and a few draws to store all of your ...
American's have not really discovered this Austrailian based cruise company, but we were lucky to find this river cruise while searching for last minute deals on line. We are experienced cruisers and thought why not try something different. We ended up having the experience of a lifetime and enjoyed all the benefits of a first class all-inclusive cruise.
Yes, we were in the minority (we ...
