The world is filled with vibrant and intriguing cultures and the only way to truly appreciate them is by experiencing them first-hand. After all, some of the best keepsakes from an extraordinary holiday are the local skills we acquire. Maybe it is learning a few words of Norf'k, Norfolk Island’s unique language, or creating your own Dreamtime painting in Australia's Red Centre, or even mastering the art of traditional bread making from a Portuguese nana. Scenic’s handcrafted itineraries are designed to take you the cultural heart of the destinations you visit. 

Our exclusive Scenic Enrich experiences are specially created by our expert Journey Designers to immerse you into the uniqueness of each region you visit. In the rugged Australian outback, you will enjoy an exclusive visit to the 1,500-year-old Boab Prison Tree to learn about its cultural and historical significance. In artistic Austria, witness a spectacular private Viennese classical concert within the opulent interior of Palais Liechtenstein. And in mystical Cambodia, be spellbound by a Gala Dinner at an Angkor temple featuring Apsara dancers. 

The wonderful thing about travelling is that, no two days are the same. You might feel like taking a kayak out to explore secret Mediterranean grottos one day, but the next day, you might want to sit back and admire the scenery from your suite balcony with a glass of Champagne and canapés.  

 

Perhaps today you want to explore beyond the majestic Arctic fjords on Scenic Eclipse’s two on board helicopters^, and tomorrow you might like to dive up to 300 metres under the water’s surface in Scenic Neptune^, the on board submarine. A discovery voyage is filled with adventure from one day to the next, and our wide range of discovery excursions led by an expert Discovery Team help you make the most of it. 

Our included Scenic Freechoice options help you customise your travels to suit your pace, passion, and mood on a given day. From staying on board your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship for an authentic German beer-tasting event to embarking on an exhilarating cycling tour of historic Cologne, you’ll never run out of options.  

 

Explore the Australian Red Centre on camel back or as a pillion passenger of a Harley-Davidson™ bike. Whizz through Ho Chi Minh City’s bustling food markets on a Vespa or float above the Angkor temples on a tethered balloon ride. In New Zealand, take a thrilling Wilderness Jet trip or meander through the quirky ‘The Lord of the Rings’ sets. Explore a fun new included experience every day.
