Everything is included except for your personal expenses.

Complimentary beverages, all day, everyday
Scenic ‘Space-Ships’ now provide all-inclusive beverages* – a selection of complimentary wines and spirits throughout the ship, including an open bar service in the lounges. Our guests are welcomed onboard with Moët & Chandon. Even the drinks in your mini-bar are complimentary.

* All drinks included except top shelf spirits, French Champagne and selected wines.

From the moment you step on board a Scenic 'Space-Ship', you will enjoy a level of inclusive luxury and service that is unsurpassed on the waterways of Europe. Scenic Tours is famed for dragging river cruising out of the backwaters. Today we continue to innovate with the introduction of private sun lounges and an exclusive Butler Service for every guest.

Sleek, stylish and thoroughly modern
Our fleet of sleek, immaculately presented modern vessels are the widest and longest on Europe’s waterways. And thanks to strictly limiting our passenger and cabin numbers, there’s more space onboard per guest than any other fleet. Step into your suite and you’ll discover a spacious and peaceful haven complete with luxurious touches throughout; including panoramic windows that open to your private outdoor balcony.

Your own butler - now that’s a luxury
Our renowned Scenic Tours Butler Service is available to every guest, offering a service that’s both thoughtful and attentive. At any time of the day your butler is on-hand to ensure everything is just as you wish, making your cruise an unforgettable luxurious experience.

Each new day on a Scenic Tours river cruise brings something refreshingly different. It’s a voyage of discovery that we know often exceeds our guests’ expectations. That’s what makes Scenic Tours unlike any other river cruise operator; we don’t do anything that you would describe as ‘run-of-the-mill’.

We give you a fantastic range of spectacular, and often exclusive, experiences to immerse yourself in the culture, traditions and character of a particular region.

Unmissable experiences and hidden gems
Scenic Tours offer an exclusive selection of private experiences and excursions. They are often once-in-a-lifetime and unique perspectives you simply don’t get on any other river cruise.

On the Magnificent Rhine & Rhône cruise we’ll take you beyond the usual tourist veneer, offering an authentic insight into local culture and traditions as you enjoy a home-cooked meal with a local family in the French town of Tournon.
