Scenic Space Ships

When it comes to the historic waterways of Europe and the ships that navigate them, size matters.

Scenic's 'Space-Ships' are specially designed to navigate Europe’s rivers, offering an abundance of spacious public areas to unwind in for a relaxing river cruise experience.

With only up to 163 guests, Space-Ships evoke a more personalised and intimate environment, letting you make yourself at home, meet like-minded travellers and enjoy the promise of truly all-inclusive luxury.

The Scenic Difference means that you can expect impeccable service, exclusive moments, world-class dining, and a river cruise handcrafted to meet your needs.

More Space

With no more than 163 guests on board and numerous spacious public areas, it’s easy to find a quiet spot to relax and indulge on a Scenic Space-Ship.

With fewer guests on board, coupled with spacious suites, a variety of large dining areas and comfortable public spaces, comes a feeling of ultimate luxury.

The Sun Deck runs the entire length and width of each Space-Ship, offering an expansive rooftop area where you can take in the fresh air and watch the serene landscapes of Europe pass by.

Sit back in one of the cosy sun loungers, stay active on the walking track or join in an early morning yoga class – the perfect way to rejuvenate your spirits.

The spacious Panorama Lounge & Bar is at the heart of each Space-Ship.

You can relax near the floor-to-ceiling windows, taking in the picturesque scenery over a drink with newfound friends.

There is plenty of room to unwind, there are no long walks back to your suite, and it’s almost impossible to get lost, so it’s no wonder this is always one of guests’ favourite spots.

An important part of every Scenic Europe river cruise is the cuisine. The clever design of the Space-Ships has enabled the inclusion of up to five dining venues.

You can choose casual or fine dining, savouring a multicultural menu of cuisine to suit all taste buds.

Crystal Dining serves delectable three-course meals, whilst River Café is ideal for a light snack – the choice is yours.

Exploring Small Riverside Towns
