A world of enriching and enlightening discoveries awaits you. From the moment you step on board a Scenic Space-Ship, you’ll feel at home, taken care of by your butler and the on board crew.

You’ll find it’s more than unpacking just once, it’s settling into spacious and beautifully designed suites. With up to five dining venues and premium beverages all day, everyday, it’s more than great food and wine – it’s a gourmet selection of cuisines to suit all tastes.

Size really does matter when talking about the historic and sometimes narrow water passageways of Europe and how to best navigate them. The fleet of Scenic Space-Ships provide guests on board with ample space and the freedom to roam. A Scenic Space-Ship is more than a standard river vessel – it’s a custom-built luxury ship, meticulously designed to offer maximum space and comfort with only up to 163 guests.

Which river should you explore with Scenic?

The romantic Rhine, Main, Upper Danube & Moselle Rivers is often the first river cruise destination.

Romance is alive and well in this region. Expect to explore magnificent castles, historic towns and verdant vineyards.

You’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a fairy-tale.

What makes a Scenic Space-Ship experience so special?

Space to yourself

With only up to 163 guests on board and a variety of dining, wellness and relaxation areas, it’s easy to find a quiet place to relax and indulge on a Space-Ship. There is a feeling of boundless space and many public spaces where guests have plenty of room to take in the views. The Sun Deck is an expansive rooftop area. The spacious Panorama Lounge & Bar is the heart of the ships and there are multiple spaces for casual or fine dining.

It’s more than good food and wine with Scenic, it’s your choice of up to five dining venues with a dedicated team creating dishes inspired by the regional cuisines of the countries you sail through.

Small riverside towns

Your Space-Ship will meander along the waterways often close to shore. The ships are also able to dock in the heart of towns, so you have more time to explore onshore on foot or on one of the complimentary e-bikes. There are many opportunities to personalise your cruise with included Scenic Freechoice activities and special Scenic Enrich experiences.

It’s more than a visit to a European town, it’s a cultural exploration of some of Europe’s oldest town squares, villages and cities and discovering the heritage, cuisine and customs that have been cherished for centuries.

Take a Scenic e-bike and discover Europe’s grand capitals and lovely towns.

Wellbeing and healthy living

When you want a little therapeutic ‘me time’ to reflect on your journey highlights, you can head to the Salt Therapy Lounge. Scenic is the first and only river cruise company to feature a salt therapy room on a selection of its Space-Ships, utilising practices developed in medieval times to harness the health properties of salt.

With Scenic, it’s more than healthy choices – it’s wellness that nourishes mind, body and soul.

Relax in the Scenic Diamond Salt Therapy Room

From the moment you step on board your luxurious Scenic Space-Ship you won’t need to spend a thing (unless you’re after a hair appointment, massage or vintage wines, Champagnes and spirits). Whether on board or during shore excursions, it’s all taken care of.

It’s more than all-inclusive, Scenic is truly all-inclusive luxury in a class of its own.

Commitment to Health & Safety

Scenic understands the importance of maintaining your health and wellness whilst travelling. The Scenic team is working closely with the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) and government health agencies to implement a full range of health and wellness measures for river cruise operations.
