Description

Built in 2008, Scenic Sapphire has been reconfigured to offer exclusive river cruises along France’s waterways, together with her sister ship Scenic Diamond. Designed to provide a journey defined by luxury, comfort, and refinement, she offers elegant surroundings and exceptional services.

The ship features all-suite accommodation, including the two prestigious Royal Owner’s Suites of 47 m², beautifully appointed with L’Occitane toiletries, soft bathrobes, queen-size beds with fine Egyptian cotton linens, a pillow menu for personalised comfort, flat-screen HD TVs, Mac mini systems, complimentary minibars, and Wi-Fi access.

The onboard dining experience celebrates local flavours through carefully selected ingredients sourced from regional producers. Guests can also enjoy a wellness area dedicated to spa and fitness treatments, as well as private demonstration kitchens where they can take part in culinary experiences and learn new recipes. The Panorama Lounge offers a more spacious setting than many other river ships, providing an elegant atmosphere where guests can relax at the bar and admire the views through large windows. On the Sun Deck, loungers and seating areas invite guests to enjoy the journey in the open air.
