Portugal’s timeless valleys and France’s gourmet heart

Explore two nations and multiple waterways in one seamless journey. Combining Portugal’s Douro Valley and the south of France, these decadent cruises are a feast for the senses.
Cruise along the Douro River, where terraced vineyards, centuries-old quintas and riverside villages reveal Portugal’s soulful traditions, port wine legacies and warm hospitality. Here you’ll find locals still ply their traditional trades as they have for centuries, regional fare is authentic and honest, and the people are passionate about their heritage. In the South of France, a cruise along the Saône and Rhône takes you to Lyon, the nation’s culinary heart, and legendary appellations like the Côtes du Rhône. Scenic Enrich moments, immersive shop with a chef experiences, cooking classes in Scenic Culinaire and an exclusive on board dinner from a Michelin-starred chef introduce you to the flavours, culture and gentle pace of this romantic region. Both journeys are the longest of their kind on these rivers, making for a unique opportunity to slow down and savour the journey.
