Onboard Entertainment

Your evening entertainment is designed to complement the region through which you're sailing. Tomy Temerson will bring the zither string music of the alpine regions of Germany and Austria to life with tunes from The Sound of Music and Dr. Zhivago. You can also join in the fun of the rollicking tunes of a traditional Bavarian brass band and colorful gypsy troupe. In Strasbourg enjoy the sultry sounds of our French chanson, showcasing the polyphonic and secular music of the late middle Ages and the Renaissance.

Europe has long been a cultural hub of artists and artisans. As an exclusive highlight on your river cruise you can enjoy the creativity of German flame worker Hans-Joachim Ittig as he demonstrates the intricacies of glass blowing. Be entertained by the Hungarian State Folk Ensemble with their authentic blend of folk music, dance and dramatic plays, you will be delighted to learn about these dance-house traditions. You will also be invited into the home of a Croatian family for a traditional home-cooked lunch and learn of their folklore.

Our exclusive cooking classes will be a major highlight during a French River Cruise with Scenic. Along with a dedicated cooking space and the most appetizing recipes from the region, we will also be bringing a local chef to host a class. This renowned chef will bring to life the food of the region and help you whip up delectable French creations. And the best part of all will be the delicious tasting at the end of class.
