First cruise ever - not disappointed

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Scenic Sapphire

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

Our cruise was on the Soene and Rhone rivers through the south of France. Scenic is an Australian based company, so more than half the passengers were Aussies..they are so much fun. It was an all inclusive cruise including gratuities. We were on the 2nd deck, the cabin was more spacious than I anticipated. The excursions were well organized and plentiful. There was never pressure to go on an ...

This was our 3rd cruise with Scenic and they really know how to do everything to perfection. The staff couldn't be nicer and by the end of the cruise they felt like family. They are friendly, professional, courteous, funny and happy to help with anything you ask. The ship we were on was beautiful, the cabin was generous in size and everything worked well. There was also the new additions to enjoy ...

Previous experience with Scenic cruises had shown us the quality of their ships and service so we were confident this one would be as good. We were not disappointed in anything apart from the weather which, at the start of the cruise, was cooler than expected. It warmed up as we travelled further south. The tour director was informative and friendly with an excellent sense of humour and was ...

We chose the cruise predominantly on the basis of geography and destinations. The Rhone is very scenic in parts and interesting because of the lock system. The destinations along the way were very varied and provided lots of opportunities for doing your own exploring or joining in organised tours. Lyon and Avignon in particular were very enjoyable. The ship was immaculate, the cabin was smallish ...

the staff were very knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant, but not 'stuffy'. they had a good sense of humor and were still very professional. They made the trip worry free. Will definitely be recommending this adventure to many and will be booking again for our next adventure. we went on this cruise with 7 other friends and it was convenient that there were various options to take at each ...

This was our fourth river cruise with Scenic. We expected the usual high standard of that we had enjoyed before and were pleasantly surprised, again by our superior treatment. The crew went out of their way to make sure your every need was satisfied, always with a smile. If you had a question or concern, no matter what, from deck hand to captain they had, or would take, time to help ...

Terrible buffets and a few rude staff

Ports and shore excursions were the reason we chose this river cruise after attending a presentation by a Scenic. They advertise themselves as a luxury cruise line with a price tag to go with it. Breakfast buffet we understand but every day for lunch as well made it feel like a cafeteria line up for poor quality food. Our butler which came with the cruise whether you want it or not was very ...

SCENIC TOURS are in a class of their own in providing QUALITY + Value for Money ! Conscientious/diligent Staff ( & Crew) attend to your every need on board the Vessel with unstinting pleasantry - which is a delight to behold especially for elderly travellers. Only downside ( due to popularity of River cruising ) , there are multiple variety of ships competing for " Mooring Berths " @ each ...

Definitely not a high end gourmet luxury cruise!

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

My husband and I, both in our late 50s, chose this cruise because the US marketing claimed it has a generally lower age demographic and was as luxurious and upscale, with gourmet dining (and certainly as expensive) as the other cruises at Uniworld and Viking we were considering as part of our 30th anniversary celebration. The itinerary was Idyllic Rhone and we had a Royal Suite which was lovely. ...

Spectacular: Ground Transportation: Pick up @ the CDG airport. The Scenic Driver was waiting for us and gave us a descriptive tour of Paris along the way to the Scenic Sapphire. TGV train from Paris to Dijon was well organized. Transfer to the Le Meridian by bus was excellent. Transfer to the Nice airport @ 4.25am was timely and professional. We really appreciate that!
