Description

The Scenic Ruby is the fourth of the identical sisters built for Scenic Tours. Launched in March 2009, the Ruby provides a luxurious river cruise experience to passengers on the rivers of Europe. It can accommodate up to 167 travelers through charming landscapes, offering unforgettable holidays, pampered by the 53 crew members always at their disposal. Onboard, there is a wellness area, hairdresser, gym, entertainment, free WiFi, electric bicycles, and, of course, luxuriously furnished suites to retreat to at the end of the day.
The ships themselves feature four decks: Sun Deck, Diamond Deck, Sapphire Deck, and Jewel Deck, each hosting a range of suites and cabins and a handful of prominent public spaces and restaurants, including Crystal Dining and Riverview Terrace, Portobellos, and the Panorama Lounge Bar. Several comfortable public areas are available onboard the Scenic "Space Ships" where passengers can relax and socialize. The Panorama Lounge and Bar are located at the stern and feature floor-to-ceiling windows for spectacular views of the passing landscape.
The two main restaurants are Crystal, more elegant with refined dishes in a comfortable setting, and Portobello, located at the bow for a more casual atmosphere, with the adjacent Observation Lounge.
An outdoor sun deck occupies the ship's highest deck, providing ample space to admire the panorama, along with an outdoor lounge and a walking path. A gift shop and a fitness center complete the available amenities onboard.

Comment

The river cruise on the Scenic Ruby from Nuremberg to Budapest was a very positive experience. The ship is very nice, with modern, spacious and tastefully decorated areas. My cabin was spacious and equipped with all the comforts. The most impressive aspect is the panoramic terrace, which allows you to enjoy a spectacular view while sailing along the river. The service on board the Scenic Ruby is impeccable. The staff is incredibly attentive and always ready to satisfy every request. The local guides during the excursions are experienced and passionate, offering rich and interesting insights into the places visited. The restaurants offer a wide choice of menus, with options ranging from international cuisine to local tradition. The excursions that allow you to discover the historical and cultural beauty of the cities were well organized with knowledgeable and available guides.
