Certain river cruise itineraries are universally popular and they can sell out quickly, as can suite categories. It’s often a good idea to book as soon as availability opens, which is usually 12 to 18 months prior to travel. While you may be able to find availability on a sailing that departs sooner than that, if you want your pick of itinterary dates and suite category, then it’s best to plan in advance for your next river cruise experience.

Cruising with Children

On Scenic river cruises, children over the age of 12 are welcome onboard, and all guests under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult or guardian at all times. No children’s programs or babysitting services are available on any of the ships, so this style of cruising is often better suited to adults.
