Scenic River Cruises offers ultra-luxury, all-inclusive river cruises to explore the heart of iconic cities, and this autumn, anyone wishing to discover Europe or Southeast Asia can take advantage of exclusive benefits.

Scenic has launched its “Fall into Savings” offer, a limited-time promotion valid from October 7 to 20, which can be combined with the 2-for-1 rate, for selected departures in 2024 and 2025 on European and Southeast Asian rivers, with savings of up to $1,750 per suite.

Among the selected departures, as Christmas approaches, the “Danube Christmas Markets” itinerary stands out—a cruise through the heart of Europe, from Budapest to Nuremberg, featuring the enchanting atmosphere of Christmas markets, which have brought festive charm to the Danube’s banks for centuries. For those looking to end 2024 or begin 2025 with an Asian experience, three itineraries are available to explore Southeast Asia, offering journeys from 13 to 18 days along the Mekong. These cruises allow guests to immerse themselves in and discover the local lifestyle through interactions with village residents and monks and nuns in the monasteries, while also exploring the highlights of Vietnam and Cambodia in one compact itinerary.

For those preferring to book their vacation in advance while still taking advantage of these exclusive offers, Scenic features several selected itineraries. These include the classic “Gems of the Danube,” an immersion into medieval cities filled with baroque palaces, fairytale castles, and imperial treasures; the “Beautiful Bordeaux” itinerary, showcasing a city renowned for its incredible wines produced across its fertile countryside, which, along with its gastronomy, offers a wealth of historic landmarks, from elegant châteaux to churches that have stood longer than most of the New World; and the “Lower Danube Discovery” itinerary, covering six countries from Western to Eastern Europe, revealing unique landscapes, cultures, cuisines, and stories, with stops in vibrant cities like Bratislava, Budapest, and Belgrade, where ancient buildings blend with modern architecture.

Two other noteworthy journeys are the 15-day “Romantic Rhine & Moselle,” a fascinating voyage to discover castles that sometimes seem straight out of a movie, the legend of the Rhine River siren who is said to lure sailors to their doom, and the mythical Black Forest, which still echoes with imaginative children’s tales. Finally, the “Rhine Highlights” itinerary, a journey along Europe’s most legendary waterway, departing from Amsterdam towards the Swiss city of Basel, will introduce guests to the rich culture, history, and landscapes along the banks of this mighty river.

Whether you’re looking for a Christmas escape, want to experience the essence of Asia, or are simply seeking a well-deserved vacation combining discovery and relaxation, this is the perfect opportunity to set sail with Scenic River Cruises.
