Scenic Cruises' “space ship” class design features plentiful and spacious cabins and public areas, as well as one of the highest passenger-to-space ratios in the industry.

Cabins

A signature feature of all Scenic Cruises "space ships" is the cabin balconies called “Sun Lounges”. These are outdoor terraces that easily convert into indoor lounge areas. Scenic Pearl's standout feature is the “Sun Lounge” balcony available in most staterooms. All meals, drinks (except luxury Champagne brands and the highest-end liquors), tours and excursions, butler service, and Wi-Fi Internet are included in the fares.

Scenic Pearl has a total of 85 passenger staterooms (70 of which are balcony suites) in 14 grades.

Cabin types/categories (number, location), from highest to lowest:

• Suites - RA, R (x4, Deck 3), RJ, BJ (x6, Decks 2 & 3), A, B, BA, C, P, PA (x58, Decks 2 & 3), BS (x1, Deck 2)
• Window Staterooms - D, E (x15, Deck 1).

More than 80% of the accommodations feature full-size balconies. Every room has a “Scenic Slumber Bed” (queen-size) with fine linens and a menu of pillows. Junior and Royal Suites offer butler service.

Shipboard facilities

Scenic Pearl restaurants include Crystal Restaurant, Portobellos (Italian), Riverview Terrace (al fresco), and Table La Rive (Pearl Deck, for Suite passengers only). There is also a Panorama Lounge, River Cafe, Wellness Centre (Gym and Spa), shop, and an elevator (connecting all cabin decks). The included Scenic Pearl cruise shore excursions go beyond typical river cruising. Scenic's GPS devices allow independent exploration. Binoculars and bicycles are provided in port to explore the surrounding area. Onboard passengers can purchase souvenirs in the gift shop. The ship also features a library, a life-size chessboard on the Sun Deck, and wellness facilities (beauty salon, Spa, fitness room).

On all price-inclusive Scenic cruise tours and shore excursions, guests receive GPS tracking devices (called ScenicTailorMade) with uploaded digital maps. These devices also function as listening devices for live narration by the line's local expert tour guides during group excursions. Binoculars and bicycles are also provided complimentary, allowing guests to fully enjoy the scenery along the Scenic river cruise itinerary route.

Scenic river cruise deals are among the industry's most all-inclusive. All meals, drinks (except French Champagne brands and the highest-end liquors), excursions, butler service, and Internet are included in the fares. Even the drinks in the cabins' mini-bars are complimentary. Scenic Tours cruises traditionally attract travelers from Australia and the UK, along with a steadily growing number of Americans, Canadians, and Germans. Passengers are typically aged 55+, financially comfortable, and well-traveled.

Scenic Pearl cruise prices are per person and based on double occupancy. These are indicative Scenic cruise rates and may differ at the time of booking due to travel agency promotions, special offers and discounts, group travel bookings, or last-minute deal rates.
