AUSTRALIAN holidaymakers have responded
strongly to Scenic Tours’ 2013 France and
Russian cruise programs, with the company’s
General Manager of Europe Product, Aleisha
Fittler, saying that “sales have exceeded
expectations and continue to be strong”.
According to Scenic the popularity of its 2013
France program is due in large part to the
deployment of a Scenic ‘Space-Ship’ on the
French waterways, whilst the company has
attributed the demand for its Russian
program to the decision for Scenic Tours to
build their own ship in Russia, Scenic Tsar.
Speaking about Tsar, which completed
refurbishment and set sail in June this year,
Fittler said “We recognised a gap in the
market and so have built a program to meet
the markets demands – a boutique size ship,
93% balcony cabins and all-inclusive.
“As the first new build in 25 years in Russia,
the Scenic Tsar has taken river cruising in
Russia to a new level so it is no surprise that
our departures are filling fast,” she added.
