Scenic Group offering early access to 2028 Europe River Cruising & Land Journeys

Scenic Group has opened early access to its 2028 luxury Europe river cruising and land journeys collection, unveiling new itineraries, enhanced land extensions, with more ways for guests to combine and explore.

In 2028, Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours and Emerald Cruises & Tours program has been aligned to growing demand for longer stays, more immersive regional experiences and flexible combinations.

From Portugal’s spectacular Douro Valley and the vineyards of France to the imperial cities of Central Europe and the cultural crossroads of Eastern Europe, guests can secure preferred travel dates and suites ahead of the general release. Guests who book their 2028 Europe river cruising itinerary by Dec. 31, 2026, can take advantage of the Early Access Sale, locking in 2027 pricing for 2028 travel.

Elisabeth Sadler, Vice President, River Cruising Product, Scenic Group, said that:  “Europe is one of the world’s most immersive regions to explore by river, and for 2028 we have expanded the ways guests can experience it. Every season we look at how our guests are travelling and where we can provide more meaningful journeys.”

Sadler continued: “For Scenic, we’ve reimagined some of our most popular river and land itineraries to provide longer stays, new destination pairings and expanded extension options, whilst retaining the exclusive Scenic Enrich and Freechoice experiences.For the Emerald Cruises collection, we have introduced a new itinerary along the lower Danube River, where we see strong demand for guests to explore more authentically.”

With early access prices and Best Available offers now open, travel advisors can secure preferred dates and suites for their clients, ahead of the general release.
