Each of Scenic’s ultra-luxury ‘Space-Ships’ are custom-designed to seamlessly navigate some of the world’s most famed rivers while offering an abundance of space for guests to unwind in total comfort throughout the journey, along with state-of-the-art wellness and fitness amenities onboard. And, as they take only up to 163 guests, Scenic’s river cruise ships have a much more personal and intimate feel than other considerably larger vessels.
