No, we’re not talking about Chris Evans or Hemsworth (#IWish), but that’s exactly how you’re going to feel when you try Scenic’s new ship.

Named Scenic Jasper, she officially set sail this week after a special christening ceremony held in the Austrian capital, Vienna.

Although she is the eleventh ‘Space-Ship’ in Scenic’s fleet, she is a ‘next-generation’ product, meaning she offers even more intimacy and luxury for travellers.

Onboard she has 85 cabins including the largest suites on the rivers, with the Royal Panorama Suite measuring up to 44m2 and the Royal Suite boasting 33m2 of space.

“We are proud of the innovations we have made on Scenic Jasper, we’ve taken what was already an exceptional design and are now able to offer our guests a real heightened sense of luxury the largest suites on Europe’s rivers.”

Glen Moroney, Scenic Founder
