Very good cruise excellent crew great entertainment and superb food and drink
10/10 from start to finish, cruise, staff, food , excursions were all excellent. Would highly recommend a scenic river cruise , yes it was expensive but definitely worth it in terms of service, quality of food etc

We spent ten days on the Danube, and although the water levels meant that we did not get as far as our planned destination, we had a wonderful time drifting through some stunning scenery. The service was superb, there was a tremendous range of food, and even the wines varied depending on which country we happened to be in at the time! Now that the Covid years have died down, we plan to travel with Scenic again next year.
Entertainment shows simply superb better than many six star cruise lines Ship is quite old but public spaces good with excellent theatre with good sight lines Food was quite good but not top notch catering for uk tastes and with a large contingent of Indian crew curry was very popular
We were pleasantly surprised with our 12-day Alaska cruise, departing from Vancouver in September, 2022. Accommodation was fine. The dining was better than expected, which say a lot. Overall, it was a positive experience,
Highlight of the trip was the food in the main dining room, both Breakfast and Dinner were superb. Great service throughout the cruise. Ship clean and in good condition, entertainment a bit repetitive but pleanty to see and do. Drinks pricing comparative to at home in UK. Drinks package ok if you are a heavy drinker, Wi Fi charges very high. Have alreay booked a future cruise with P&O, say no more.
the ship is beautiful, excellent food, friendly service - cabin attendants, dining and cafes, reception, on deck etc. I cannot comment on bars ( do not drink alcohol and therefore seldom went into the bars, but partner said very good service. this cruise generally went well, comfortable ship to spend time on. although most of the personnel provide an excellent service, they are let down by very poor destinations (excursions) team. they were often unavailable and very inefficient, poor communication, cancelled pre-booked excursions at the last minute and did not offer alternatives. The choice of excursions was often poor, over-priced, very few shuttle buses provided if want to do own thing, and the "team" were not at all informed about the places that the ship stops, or about facilities onshore or about ideas of things to do on shore. as we are good walkers we did our own things but the destinations team make no effort to help with arranging things. we go on a cruise principally to see and do a wide variety of things, whilst also enjoying the comfort and practicality a moving base. We will not travel with Oceania again because of the low standard and poor attitude of the destinations team, although Riviera is a very beautiful boat, with otherwise good service as detailed above.
