Scenic Azure Review
Review of Scenic Azure
MS Scenic Azure ship cruises on Douro River in Portugal, with roundtrip departures from homeport Oporto. The riverboat is among the most luxurious and newest Douro River cruise ships. The vessel is owned and operated by Scenic Tours. Being the first passenger shipping company to have its own vessel on the Portuguese cruising market, Scenic stands among the best travel brands in Europe with various itineraries and all-inclusive fares.
The vessel is Portugal-flagged (MMSI number 263673911) and registered in Lisbon. The shipbuilder is WestSEA (shipyard in Viana do Castelo, Portugal).
Cabins
All Scenic Tours cruises are all-inclusive deals. These boats are bigger in size but with smaller guest capacity compared to standard-design riverboats sailing in Europe. This new design (patented as "space ships") allows bigger river cruise cabins and most spacious and comfortable public areas. A signature feature of all Scenic Cruises "space ships" are the cabin balconies called “Sun Lounges”. These are outdoor terraces which easily convert into indoor lounge areas. Scenic Azure has a total of 48 cabins (all of which Suite) in 10 grades and 4 passenger decks.
Boat's Suites are in categories RP (x2, deck3), RJ, BJ (x4, deck2&3), B, BB, C, P, PA (x36, deck2&3), D, E (x6, deck1).

There is also a Panorama Lounge, River Cafe, Wellness Centre (Gym and Spa), swimming pool, shop, shaded top-deck with swimming pool, served terrace and sitting area, an elevator (connecting all cabin decks). On all (price-inclusive) Scenic cruise tours and excursions ashore, guests receive GPS tracking devices ("ScenicTailorMade") with uploaded digital maps. They double as listening devices for the live narration by the line's local expert tour guides provided on all group travel excursions. Binoculars and bicycles are also provided complimentary to fully enjoy the scenery everywhere along the cruise itineraries and land tour routes.
Scenic river cruise deals are among the industry's most all-inclusive. All meals, drinks (except the French Champagne and highest-end liquors), excursions, butler service and Internet are included in the fares. Even the drinks in cabins' mini-bars are complimentary. Scenic Tours cruises traditionally attract travelers from Australia and the UK, with a constantly growing number of Americans, Canadians and Germans. Passengers are 55+, financially comfortable and well-traveled.
Scenic Azure cruise prices are per person and based on double occupancy. These are only indicative Scenic Cruises Portugal rates. They might be different when you book your Scenic Tours Douro river cruise tour deals, influenced by travel agency promotions, special offers and discounts, group travel booking or last-minute deals rates.
- Scenic Azure cruise deals are inclusive of Internet (Wi-Fi), all tours/excursions, ground transfers, hotel stays, gratuities, port taxes, all beverages consumed on the ship (coffee, tea, bottled water, soft drinks). River cruise fares are also inclusive of alcohol - wine and beer at lunch/dinner, but also of cocktails and liquor offered at the boat's bars.
