Scenic Group is opening early bookings for 2028 Europe river cruises and 2027 Chile expeditions, offering travelers who commit by year-end 2026 the chance to lock in 2027 pricing. Travel and Tour World reports the company is expanding stays and adding extensions across the French Riviera, Loire Valley, Brittany and Munich, while Emerald Cruises will launch a new 10-night lower-Danube sailing.
Scenic's 2027 offerings also feature four voyages through Chilean and Patagonian fjords with Zodiac excursions, helicopter tours and submersible dives, plus a President's Cruise aboard the new Emerald Lumi departing Paris in August 2027 for $3,936 per person.

The President's Cruise aboard the new Emerald Lumi sails round-trip from Paris in August 2027, starting at $3,936 per person for eight days. Travel and Tour World confirms the ship will be Emerald Cruises' 11th European Star-Ship and the first to operate on the Seine River, visiting Vernon, Rouen, Honfleur, Les Andelys and La Roche-Guyon.
The itinerary ties to Monet's gardens, medieval Rouen and D-Day beaches, pairing history with French-inspired cuisine and wine pairings. Locally curated excursions highlight Normandy's cultural heritage across the eight-day voyage.
Emerald Cruises is introducing a new 10-night lower-Danube sailing between Passau and Central Europe's major capitals and crossroads. Travel Market Report reports this addition to the 2028 collection expands the company's river portfolio beyond traditional routes.
The lower-Danube route addresses demand for immersive Central European experiences. Travelers booking the 2028 collection by December 31, 2026 secure 2027 pricing, providing significant savings on next-year departures.
