Scenic Opal

Built in 2015 to join our European fleet Scenic Opal is one of the latest generation of Space-Ships, complete with vitality pool, sun deck and a range of exclusive dining venues.

Designed with peerless attention to detail, the newest members of our fleet have set a new precedent in luxury river cruising. Like every vessel in our growing roster of luxury Space-Ships; Scenic Opal  has been meticulously designed and crafted to afford the most luxurious and unforgettable journeys, so you can expect nothing less than the trip of a lifetime.

Measuring 135 metres in length and carrying just 169 guests, these luxury vessels marry space and intimacy with a sense of exclusivity not regularly found on Europe’s waters. Couple this with a 1:3 crew to guests ratio, and guests can expect an attentive service from the minute they step aboard these illustrious river cruise vessels.

Gratuities

Tipping and gratuities for drivers, local guides, porters, and waiting staff are included in the total price of your holiday. Please note: tipping is not included for meals, drinks, taxis and transfers outside your itinerary and only applies to on board services. We’d recommend tipping 10-15% in restaurants (unless a service charge has already been applied) and 10-15% on taxi meters. As a rule, always pre-negotiate taxi fares before agreeing to travel.
