Scenic Gem

Scenic Gem sails the beautiful Seine River. Enjoy a private butler service, spacious suites, a wealth of dining options, including L'Amour fine dining restaurant.

Attentively designed to negotiate the magical waters of the Seine, Scenic Gem has set a new precedent in luxury river travel since joining the illustrious Scenic fleet in 2014.

Beautifully designed and crafted to a meticulous specification, every inch of Scenic Gem has been carefully considered for your optimum enjoyment, comfort and wellbeing. From luxury designer flourishes to innovative technologies, this supremely appointed vessel is capable of transporting you in complete safety and luxury, so that you can take in the exquisite surroundings of the Seine at your own pace.

Choose to cruise France’s illustrious Seine aboard Scenic Gem, and you’ll benefit from some of the most spacious cabins and suites of any vessel. Scenic Gem boasts 63 perfectly proportioned guest cabins, each affording its own luxuries and comforts.

To help you select the cabin class that’s right for you, here we present the complete deck plans for Scenic Gem. Helpfully colour coded to highlight the different cabin classes and where they appear on board, the plans give you clear insight into the overall layout of the ship, so you can begin to decide which area of the ship you’d prefer to be based during the voyage.

Dining

Aboard a Scenic Tours river cruise, you have a wonderfully diverse range of dining options to choose from; the informal all-day River Café, the intimacy of Portobellos Italian Restaurant, the elegance of the Crystal Dining Restaurant, the English tradition of high tea on the Riverview Terrace, and the exclusive Table La Rive for Diamond Deck, Junior and Royal Suite guests. Refined to relaxed, al fresco to intimate, you truly are spoilt for choice.

While you’re onboard, all cocktails, spirits, beer and wine, are available with their compliments at any time. The only exceptions are a very small number of rare, fine and vintage wines, champagnes and spirits. Lunch and dinner are always accompanied by cocktails, a wide choice of wines, beer, soft drinks, tea and coffee.
