All-inclusive, exclusive and unique - our signature Scenic Enrich experiences grant you access to exquisite multi-sensory moments that you'll treasure for years to come. From mouth-watering meals in a private castle to exclusive concerts tucked away in the secret room of an ornate palace, these diverse and enchanting handpicked experiences will be amongst the highlights of your cruise.

While dining on board is delicious and diverse, when you step ashore you’re faced with an abundance of unique culinary experiences.

Beyond the common tourist veneer lies a world of authenticity, where local cultures and age-old traditions lie undisturbed and continue to thrive. We’ll take you off the beaten track and invite you to experience truly once-in-a-lifetime moments, the likes of which you won’t find in a local guide book.
