Hoi An on the coast of central Vietnam is consistently rated one of the most beautiful cities in Asia. It's stunning by day, but after dark is when it really comes into its own as the canals of the Old Town are illuminated with coloured lanterns.
Have you visited this fairytale town?
It was a picture-perfect journey as Scenic Eclipse II made her way across the Pacific earlier this year, calling at the legendary atolls of Bora Bora, the Cook Islands, Tonga and Fiji. Guests were treated to spectacular wildlife encounters while swimming in the crystal-clear waters.
Did you know that as you cruise along the Main-Danube canal, you'll navigate through 16 locks?
These engineering marvels raise or lower ships up to 25 metres, ensuring smooth sailing and controlling water levels during warmer months. This is one of our guests' favourite experiences, which can be witnessed closely from the Scenic Space-Ship's Sun Deck.
Which lock do you remember the most from your Europe river cruise?
