Scenic Crystal Cruises

Scenic Crystal is a specially designed Space-Ship that cruises the Rhine, Main, Danube, and Moselle Rivers from March to November each year. Scenic combines cruises with land tours to all parts of Europe and the UK.

Part of the unrivalled experience are the exclusive Scenic Enrich and personalised Scenic Freechoice excursions; these will well and truly immerse you in the local culture and history of each of the destinations.

With Scenic, you can be sure that your voyage will be a culinary journey. Each ship has up to five dining experiences for you to enjoy, all of which pay tribute to the spectacular regions that you will be visiting. Dining options range from casual to fine dining, plus you can enjoy all-inclusive premium beverages all day.

Stay active with a walk on the Sun Deck or enjoy one of the Scenic wellness facilities, including stretch classes, Salt Therapy Lounge, a fitness centre, and a number of e-bikes that are available on European itineraries.
