Scenic Aura to debut in South Asia

Scenic Cruises has expanded its river cruising and land touring portfolio with new South Asia itineraries on the 44-passenger Scenic Aura.

Its inaugural season will run from October 2027 to March 2028. Itineraries range from 17 to 25 days, with each journey featuring a 10-day all-inclusive river cruise along the Lower Ganges combined with land touring in India and Sri Lanka.

The trips will include specially curated guest experiences, such as high tea at the historic Kathogola Palace in Murshidabad and a traditional Kandyan dance performance. 

A range of land excursions will also be available, with active, moderate and relaxed pace options, including a guided tiger safari through Panna National Park or taking part in a folk-dance workshop.
