Rolling several city breaks into one journey, a Scenic river cruise gives those with a penchant for new experiences, the opportunity to see more of a region. Take their ‘Jewels of Europe’ journey for example which stops off in Amsterdam, Cologne, Nuremberg, Vienna and Budapest amongst others.
There are a range of ‘active’ grade Scenic Freechoice experiences available on every itinerary, which include things like e-Bike trips through your ports-of-call, active hikes, or walking tours to take you into the cultures of the passing settlements.
