Scenic Discovery Yachts have redefined ultra-luxury expedition cruising, combining cutting-edge design with deeply immersive experiences that cater to the most discerning travellers. Purpose-built with advanced technology and a Polar Class 6 rating, Scenic Discovery Yachts venture where larger ships cannot—letting you witness remote ice shelves, secluded coves, and uncharted shores first-hand.
Every guest enjoys an ultra-luxury suite, each with a private verandah or terrace, elegant décor, abundant natural light, and personalized butler service. From morning coffee with ocean views to evening Champagne delivered to your suite, every detail is tailored for comfort and indulgence. Dining onboard a Scenic Discovery Yacht is a voyage in itself. With up to 10 culinary experiences and nine bars and lounges, world-class chefs present menus inspired by the regions you explore. Expect everything from refined French cuisine to regionally inspired specialty meals, all included in the voyage. From fine-dining exclusives like Lumière to casual, lively venues such as the rotating Night Market, each meal becomes a highlight, not an afterthought.
Wellness is woven into every day at sea. From the expansive Senses Spa offering luxurious treatments to dedicated yoga and Pilates studios, guests can rejuvenate on their schedule. Outdoor decks and relaxation spaces provide tranquil spots to reflect, read, or simply watch the horizon glide by.
One of Scenic’s standout differentiators is the Discovery Team—a cadre of up to 20 specialists including marine biologists, historians, naturalists, and regional experts. Through lectures, briefings, and onboard presentations, they illuminate the landscapes and cultures you’re about to explore so you arrive with insight, not just curiosity. Evenings in the state-of-the-art theatre might feature lectures on Arctic wildlife, marine geology, or Antarctic survival stories, adding context and depth to every moment ashore.
Every scenic port becomes a playground for discovery. From Zodiac landings and kayak explorations to stand-up paddleboarding and guided hikes, each activity is included—letting you choose your pace and passions. For those with a spirit of adventure, Scenic offers optional experiences few others can match: helicopter flights above pristine wilderness and submersible dives into ocean depths reveal perspectives that deepen your connection to the world around you.
