Drift along Europe's charming waterways on Scenic's "space ships." Guests enjoy exceptional service and world-class cuisine, ranging from casual to fine-dining options. Spacious cabins and elegant public areas allow travelers to relax and take in the spectacular scenery. Balcony suites on most ships feature sun lounges with expansive windows that lower to create an open-air balcony.

Wellness areas on ships in France and along the Rhine, Danube and Main rivers have Salt Therapy Lounges that are said to provide therapeutic benefits. Also on cruises in France, guests can work alongside the ship's chef in cooking classes offered through the Scenic Culinaire program.

Guests are immersed in local history and culture with Scenic's personalized port experiences. The Scenic Freechoice program offers a range of options from museum visits and wine tastings to guided hiking and biking excursions. Take a kayaking trip along the Pinhao River, meet beer-making monks in Bavaria or join a silk painting workshop in Lyon.

Scenic Enrich features exclusive cultural experiences that are not available to the independent traveler. For example, you might tour an exclusive chateau in the French countryside or attend a private concert at Palais Liechtenstein in Vienna.

There's still time to join Scenic on a memorable Christmas markets cruise this holiday season. These festive departures in late November and December visit Europe's famous outdoor holiday bazaars. Under twinkling lights, you can stroll among decorated stalls that sell handcrafted ornaments, toys and woodcarvings and enjoy local treats such as gingerbread, grilled sausages, roasted chestnuts and mulled wine.

Scenic also offers luxurious yacht cruises in destinations like Antarctica, the Arctic, Europe and others. Fares for these sailings also cover meals, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, Wi-Fi, gratuities, shore excursions in every port and airport transfers. Discovery leaders provide insights into the destination, and guests can explore by submarine, helicopter, Zodiacs, kayaks and e-bikes. Right now, our customers can save up to 71% off the regular price with Scenic's Summer Black Friday Sale. To see all of these sailings, click here.
