Europe’s finest food and drink Diverse and delicious food experiences are one of the highlights of your Scenic cruise. From degustation fine dining to a hearty breakfast buffet, there’s a venue and menu to suit every occasion. And what would great food be without the right drink to go with it?

A culinary voyage

An exclusive seat

On a Scenic river cruise, you’ll discover the same exacting standards whenever and wherever you dine.

Our chefs draw inspiration from the areas you travel through, so all of our food is seasonal and regional, as well as freshly prepared and delicious.

Crystal Dining is the main restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Its open seating plan accommodates tables of two to eight, so you can enjoy dinner with new friends or an intimate meal with your travelling companion. You can start each day here with a buffet breakfast and cooked-to-order favourites.

Enjoy generous lunches showcasing a range of cuisines. And in the evening, pick between seasonal and locally sourced dishes, as well as a la carte menus prepared by award-winning chefs.

Portobellos and L'Amour are our fine dining speciality restaurants offering traditional cuisine with paired wines to a select group of just 30. Every guest will get to enjoy this authentic five-course dining experience at least once, with the intimate setting and floor-toceiling windows creating the perfect ambiance for an unforgettable evening on board.

For casual and flexible dining throughout the day, you can enjoy light snacks, treats from the gelato bar and an array of healthy options from the River Café. There’s even the option to dine al-fresco on our Riverview Terrace.

Table La Rive’s six-course degustation menu with sommelier paired wines is reserved exclusively for Diamond Deck guests and those staying in Junior Suites. From Porcini Cappuccino with a complementary Riesling to marinated crayfish with mango, rocket and a delicious Burgenland Sauvignon Blanc, every element is carefully considered, expertly crafted and meticulously executed.

All your drinks included Handpicked wines, top-shelf spirits, the perfect cocktail, branded beers – all of your favourite drinks are included throughout your time on board. With access to unlimited complimentary beverages at any time of the day, you can enjoy your preferred tipple whenever the feeling takes you, from your first morning coffee to that last brandy nightcap*.

There’s even a complimentary mini-bar in your suite, which your butler will restock daily.

Once-in-a-lifetime memories

Unforgettable dining experiences

Classical concerts in the grandest palaces, magical dinners in historic castles, evenings of opulence in majestic châteaux and invitations to the homes of local families. These are just some of the authentic insights you can expect from our one-of-a-kind Enrich programme.

Each of these truly unforgettable experiences has been handpicked and created by our team of Journey Designers to be amongst the highlights of your cruise.

These are opportunities you simply don’t get on other river cruises.

Soak up the luxury of Palais Liechtenstein with an exclusive, private performance showcasing music from Mozart and Strauss during an evening of indulgence.

Attend an exclusive ‘Best of The Sound of Music and Salzburg Show’ in the most enchanting of locations.

Enjoy a private tour of the ornate and opulent Rastatt Palace before attending a sublime classical performance with your fellow guests.

These are just a handful of the unforgettable experiences you can look forward to, all at no extra cost.

If the amazing selection of on board dining options wasn’t enough, step ashore and you’re treated to an abundance of unique culinary experiences in the surrounding towns and cities. While other cruises drift past whole regions steeped in history and famed for their wine and food, we stop for a while to ensure you don’t miss out on the treasures that neighbour the river banks.

From an exclusive gala dinner and classical recital at the prestigious Pope’s Palace of Avignon to a medieval feast behind the closed doors of Marksburg Castle, we cater to your appetite for adventure and authenticity.

A welcome like no other While many dinners are set in spectacular surroundings, some offer an insight into traditional, local life. Between the raised glasses of our unique Oktoberfest event in Freudenberg and a home-hosted meal in Croatia, our aim is to give you a real flavour of local specialties, culture and traditions that you won’t find anywhere else.

Not to be confused with the so-called ‘optional’ tours that other operators charge extra for, Freechoice gives you the free reign to personalise your days ashore by choosing the excursions and activities that suit your taste.

As you can imagine, our guests relish the versatility of our Freechoice programme. With the opportunity to pick your preferred experiences from a vast collection of cultural and educational excursions, you spend your days seeing the sights you want to see.

For example, when you arrive in Budapest, you can pick between a relaxing visit to the city’s worldrenowned thermal baths, or you could choose to explore both sides of this majestic metropolis on a guided tour. From strolling the romantic streets of Rothenburg to navigating the home of Mozart, from shopping with a chef to exploring countless UNESCO World Heritage-listed sites, there’s a wealth of choice, and the best part is you can decide what you want to see on the day, with no need to pre-book.

Dutch Sights & Belgian Delights 8 day luxury river cruise in the Netherlands and Belgium There’s something irrepressibly joyful about Europe in springtime, and nowhere more so than beautiful Holland, where fields of tulips seem to personify the mood of young and old alike.

Day 03 Antwerp This morning’s touring offers the choice of two famous Belgian cities to explore. Where you visit is up to you.

Freechoice: Let a local expert guide you through Bruges, the charming World Heritagelisted city with a hive of picturesque canals and cobblestone streets. Alternatively, explore Antwerp, Belgium’s second city, renowned as the diamond capital of the world and located on the banks of the River Scheldt. The city offers an abundance of world class restaurants, striking architecture and is home to some of Belgium’s finest fashion designers, not to mention myriad bars and beer cafes serving fantastic local brews. Meals: B.L.D

Day 04 Veere You’ll have ample opportunity to join in the fun, with an itinerary that takes in the very best that the Netherlands has to offer. Breathe in the palpable sense of optimism, and enjoy the camaraderie and hospitality of locals at Hoorn, where you’ll be treated to a uniquely Dutch dinner. From sleepy towns like Edam and Volendam, where you’ll get to sample world-renowned cheeses of the same name, to thriving modern centres like Rotterdam, the home of Delft Blue Pottery, the proud history of this land is evident everywhere. From its famous windmills and canals to its timeless bridges and unique architectural styles – there’s no better time to discover it all for yourself than during the eternal spring.

Day 01 UK > Amsterdam Scenic FreeChoice Day 02 Zannse Schans On your trip to Zannse Schans you’ll experience everything that Amsterdam is famous for! You’ll get to see a traditional working windmill before learning how Amsterdam’s authentic footwear is made during a clog making presentation. And if that wasn’t enough, you’ll get to sample some of the country’s best cheeses and see how they’re made.

Choose from a selection of ways to travel to Amsterdam, all of which are included at no supplement. Pick from one of up to 13 UK regional airports or travel direct from London Heathrow. If you’d prefer not to fly, why not take advantage of our Eurostar No Fly option at no extra cost? Travel Standard Premier Class aboard the Eurostar from St. Pancras International to Brussels and on to Amsterdam. Welcome to Amsterdam. Let the wonder commence. Raise your glass to a fabulous cruise at this evening’s welcome reception.

Meals: D

Day 02 Amsterdam Traverse the streets of Amsterdam and uncover a city like no other.

Freechoice: Windmills, cheese and clogs are synonymous with traditional Dutch culture, and today you’ll have the chance to venture to vibrant Zaanse Schans to encounter them first hand as you journey through the reclaimed landscapes of Beemster. Wander streets with traditional wooden buildings, and get a taste for this unique pocket of the Netherlands by sampling some of its locally produced cheeses. You’ll also visit a working windmill and enjoy a clog making demonstration. Alternatively, you can choose to cruise through Amsterdam’s remarkable network of canals and see why thousands visit this fine city. Finally, enjoy a little downtime in Amsterdam before taking a picturesque cruise on to the city of Antwerp.

Meals: B.L.D

An early morning arrival into Veere allows you to make the most of your day in this Western pocket of Europe.

Freechoice: Visit the Delta Works including the famous Storm Surge Barrier; an incredible feat of modern engineering that was purpose built to protect the flooding Delta plain. Or you can choose to explore the charming village of Veere, located on a series of regional dykes, with a history that extends all the way back to the 15th century. Alternatively, for the more active embark on a guided cycling tour of Veere. In the evening, you’ll get to view the many delightful waterfront villages on the banks of the River Scheldt as we cruise on to Rotterdam, the ‘second Dutch city’. Meals: B.L.D

Day 05 Rotterdam > Kinderdijk Welcome to Rotterdam. This hip-and-happening Dutch city was bombed flat during WWII, so you won’t find a medieval centre here. Instead, the city’s post-war, post-modern ethos has made it one of the most exciting and progressive places to visit in mainland Europe.

Freechoice: Join your knowledgeable local guide on a tour of Rotterdam – a dynamic, international city with a bold and passionately beating heart, multicultural society and multi-ethnic population. Or if you’d prefer, you could choose to explore beautiful Delft before dropping in at the pottery factory and museum to discover more about worldfamous Delft Blue Pottery.

Sundowners^ The historic and iconic windmills of Kinderdijk epitomise rural Netherlands.

As the evening approaches, you’re invited to take in this idyllic region with a cocktail in hand. There’s no better way to enjoy the sunset as you mingle with your fellow guests at an exclusive riverside location, with the warm hues of the approaching night casting the landscape into silhouette. Meals: B.L.D

Day 06 Volendam > Edam > Hoorn Travel from the sleepy fishing village of Volendam, with its unusual raised homes and its quaint wooden church, and head to Edam, famous for its round cheese. You’ll simply love this city of beautiful town squares, old-style bridges and cheese warehouses. Then, relax ^ Sundowners are weather permitting.

9 day luxury river cruise & tour from Budapest to Bucharest For much of the 20th century the wonders of Eastern Europe were concealed behind a thick veil of secrecy.

Fortunately, those once mystery-laden lands are now open to all on our Black Sea Explorer cruise.

If you have a lingering sense of curiosity and wonder, you’re free to explore them in unabashed luxury. Cruise on board a Scenic Space-Ship down the Danube, and from there you can journey all the way to the picturesque Black Sea. Begin your adventure in Budapest, held by many to be the most fetching city in Europe, then journey through a handful of unspoilt lands, where lush landscapes are punctuated periodically by towns and cities that still look as they might have over a hundred years ago. You’ll sail further east towards the depths of the Danube before departing your ship and checking into a Bucharest hotel for an overnight stay.

Day 01 UK > Budapest Scenic Enrich Day 03 Croatian family life Gain a real flavour of local specialities, culture and traditions that you wouldn’t get anywhere else, as you’re invited into the home of a local family. Your exclusive and unique home-hosted meal in villages around Osijek is a real favourite; tasting local cooking and learning a great deal about everyday life in Croatia.

Choose from a selection of ways to travel to Budapest, all of which are included at no supplement. Pick from one of up to 13 UK regional airports or travel direct from London Heathrow. Your journey into wonder begins in Budapest, one of the most enchanting cities at the banks of the Danube. At this evening’s welcome reception, you’re invited to raise your glass to the journey ahead. Meals: D

Day 02 Kalocsa Enjoy cruising to the Baroque provincial town of Kalocsa, which lies at the periphery of the great Hungarian plain and is renowned for its decorative embroidery and paprika production.

Today you’ll get to attend a traditional horse show and trace the origins of paprika during your visit to the region’s famous Spice Museum. By the time evening arrives, you’re invited to attend the Captain’s welcome dinner on board your Star-Ship. This is the ideal opportunity to get to know your fellow guests and swap stories of your first full day. Meals: B.L.D

Day 03 Osijek You’ll enjoy options galore during your time in the Croatian city of Osijek. The region itself is a modestly-sized city, picturesquely positioned on the river Drava. Although the city was bombed in the wars that followed the break-up of the old Yugoslavia in 1991, much of its baroque heart survived intact.

Enrich As a special Scenic guest, you’ll be invited into the home of a local family for a traditional home-cooked meal and the chance to discover what everyday life is like in Croatia. With great food and wonderful company, this will be both a magnificent meal and a rare opportunity for one-on-one contact with people who understand the local way of life intimately. You definitely won’t find this in a local guide book. Meals: B.L.D

The flight timings shown in our brochure, on our website and/or detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. Flight timings are outside our control. They are set by airlines and are subject to various factors including air traffic control restrictions, weather conditions, potential technical problems and the ability of passengers to check in on time.

The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/list_en.htm. We are also required to advise you of the carrier(s) (or, if the carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. If the carrier with whom you have a confirmed reservation becomes subject to an operating ban as above as a result of which we/ the carrier are unable to offer you a suitable alternative the provisions of clause 18 and 19 will apply.

Where applicable, you must pursue the airline for the compensation or other payment due to you. All sums you receive or are entitled to receive from the airline concerned by virtue of these Regulations represent the full amount of your entitlement to compensation or any other payment arising from such cancellation, delay, downgrading or denied boarding. This includes any disappointment, distress, inconvenience or effect on any other arrangements. The fact a delay may entitle you to cancel your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight. We have no liability to make any payment to you in relation to the Denied Boarding Regulations or in respect of any flight cancellation or delay, downgrading of any flight ticket or denial of any boarding as the full amount of your entitlement to any compensation or other payment (as dealt with above) is covered by the airline’s obligations under the Denied Boarding Regulations. If for any reason, we make any payment to you or a third party which the airline is responsible for in accordance with the Denied Boarding Regulations, you must, when requested, assign to us the rights you have or had to claim the payment in question from the airline.

IMPORTANT: Unless otherwise expressly stated in the description of the tour in question or expressly advised by us to you, overnight accommodation required to meet tour and/or flight connections is not included in the tour price and is at your own expense. For any accommodation included in the tour itinerary, we reserve the right to substitute hotel accommodation of a similar standard in the place of the advertised hotel. We make no representations about the facilities, quality or size of any such hotel rooms.

Passports and visas 54. British (citizen) passport holders are recommended to have a valid passport with at least 6 months validity from return date. If your passport has less than 6 months validity from the return date, then a waiver form must be signed. It is your responsibility to ensure any visas required for countries to be visited on the tour have been obtained prior to the tour departure date. Failure to obtain correct documentation will mean you may be unable to participate in particular shore excursions and may be denied boarding and/or entry into certain countries. Passport and visa entry requirements and costs are your sole responsibility. We cannot accept any liability if you are refused entry onto any transport or into any country due to failure on your part to carry correct documentation. If failure to have any necessary travel or other documents results in fines, surcharges or other financial penalty being imposed on us, you will be responsible for reimbursing us accordingly.

55. A full British passport presently takes approximately 4 to 6 weeks to obtain. If you are 16 or over and have not yet got a passport, you should apply for one at least six weeks before your departure from the UK. The UK Passport Service has to confirm an applicant’s identity before issuing their first passport and will ask them to attend an interview in order to do this. If you are not a British citizen or hold a non British passport, you must check passport and visa requirements with the Embassy or Consulate of the country(ies) you are travelling through and to which you are intending to travel. Please note, all requirements may change and all clients must check the up to date position in good time before departure with the Embassy or consulate of the country(ies) you are travelling through and to.

Information on health abroad is also available on www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Travelhealth.

At the time of publication of this brochure, we are not aware of any compulsory health requirements applicable to British citizens taking any of the holidays featured in this brochure. For holidays in the EU/EEA you should obtain an EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) prior to departure from www.ehic.org.uk. An EHIC is not a substitute for travel insurance. Vaccination and other health requirements/recommendations are subject to change at any time for any destination. Please therefore check with a doctor or clinic not less than six weeks prior to departure to ensure that you have met the necessary requirements and have the applicable information.

57. It is the lead name’s responsibility to ensure that all members of the party are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents before departure. All costs incurred in obtaining such documentation must be paid by you. We regret we cannot accept any liability if you are refused entry onto any transport or into any country due to failure on your part to carry all required documentation. If failure to have any necessary travel or other documents results in fines, surcharges or other financial penalty, costs or expenses being imposed on or incurred by us, you will be responsible for reimbursing us accordingly.

Financial security 58. We hold an Air Travel Organiser’s Licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (ATOL number 9294). When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us, you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit, you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent or your credit card issuer where applicable. You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. Please note: Not all holiday or travel services offered and sold by us will be protected by the ATOL scheme *The air inclusive holidays and flights we arrange are ATOL protected providing they are made available in the UK. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk.
