Cruising with Scenic
Passengers have a choice of two ocean ships with Scenic: step forward Scenic Eclipse and Scenic Eclipse 11.
Both are jaw-droppingly sleek and offer a taste of the billionaire lifestyle, with 176 crew to look after just 228 guests.
However, Scenic’s second ocean vessel has some new features. The Senses Spa has been upgraded while there’s a newly designed outdoor pool and Panorama Bar on the top deck.
Scenic Eclipse 11 is also equipped with a next-generation custom-made eight-passenger submarine, Scenic Neptune II, that can dive down to a depth of up to 660 feet.
The guest-to-crew ratio on both Scenic Eclipse and Scenic Eclipse 11 is 1:1, with a butler assigned to each suite, making for an ultra-luxurious experience.

Who should travel
Scenic specialises in six-star ultra-luxury meaning that passengers tend to have deep pockets. As such, the line tends to attract older couples and groups of friends although there is always the exception to the rule – and children aged 12 and over are welcome.
Owing to the fact that Scenic’s ships are modern and tasteful, the cruise line would also suit honeymooners or new-to-cruisers looking for a superlative sailing experience.
Destinations
Both of Scenic's ocean ships sail to all four corners of the globe. Expect itineraries in remote, unspoiled regions such as Antarctica and the Arctic alongside more 'classic' cruise destinations like the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the Americas and Asia.
Other destinations on offer include Indonesia, Polynesia, the Pacific Islands, Australia, the Caribbean and Scotland.
With Scenic, the world really is your oyster...
Dining
The restaurants onboard Scenic Eclipse and Scenic Eclipse 11 are all overseen by executive chef, Tom Goetter, who seems to understand that food is no longer just something you enjoy on a cruise – it's now a reason to set sail.
From haute cuisine at the the French-inspired Lumière to classic steak and seafood at Elements and authentic teppanyaki at Night Market – a private dining experience for up to eight guests with an open grill that takes its inspiration from the night markets you’ll find all around Asia, India, and the Middle East – the sister ships offer a culinary adventure too.
Alternatively, your butler can offer you a comprehensive room- service menu, 24/7.
Inclusions
Scenic's ocean ships represent a truly all-inclusive experience. Flights and transfers are taken care of, and on-board all food and drink are complimentary (including a stocked mini-bar in your suite).
Complimentary Wi-fi is available at all times, as is the use of the ship’s facilities. Shore excursions are also part of your fare – and there’s no need to tip your tour guide either as Scenic takes care of this, too.
