Scenic is offering agents the chance to learn more about its French river cruises, as the ultra-luxurious river ship, Scenic Gem, is set to star in the brand-new eight-episode series, ‘The Antique Brothers’, airing on Quest.
In anticipation of the show’s launch, Scenic is hosting a live webinar for agents, providing them with an overview of Scenic’s river cruise offering, with a focus on the Seine and Northern France, as well as the Space-Ship, Scenic Gem.
Following the webinar, a weekly social media competition will feature on Scenic & Emerald Cruises’ Totally Trade Facebook page, in alignment with each ‘The Antique Brothers’ episode. Each week, one UK agent who correctly answers a question based on that week’s episode will secure a Scenic backpack.
The competition will run alongside a cruise giveaway that Scenic will hold throughout the month of September, with all agents who make a Scenic France river cruise booking between 1 and 30 September going into the draw to win an 8-day Seine Cruise.*
Nick Hughes, Sales, Strategy & Partnership Director, Scenic said: “Scenic’s river cruises allow guests to visit more off-the-beaten-track ports and towns; we consistently look at adding new and exciting itineraries, destinations and excursions to our collection to meet the interests of our culturally curious and discerning guests. This is why Scenic Gem was the perfect ship to transport ‘The Antique Brothers’ along the Seine as they searched for hidden gems in lesser-known locations.
“Our river cruises are designed to take guests to extraordinary regions where they can immerse in rich history and embark on experiences that only we can offer. As part of select Scenic river cruises, guests can visit the French commune of Honfleur, a colourful coastal town that has one of the prettiest harbours in France. Its port was originally built for trade and has a strategic position that Scenic Gem navigates beautifully. I’m excited for viewers to see the stars of the show visit this unique destination on our Star-Ship in the series.
“With the webinar, agents will develop an in-depth understanding of Scenic’s Northern France river cruise experience and utilise this knowledge to increase their confidence when booking clients to this much sought after destination. Additionally, they will receive a full run down of our truly all-inclusive offering and ultra-luxurious experience that guests receive when sailing with Scenic, including attentive butlers in every stateroom and exclusive tours, which come at no additional charges once you are on board.
“In addition to webinars and training, a great way for agents to become familiar with our offerings is first-hand experience, so we’re thrilled to be able to offer incentives such as this, giving one lucky agent the chance to experience the Seine onboard Scenic Gem for themselves.”
Agents can sign up for Scenic’s river cruise webinar, which will be hosted at 9.30am on Tuesday 27 August, here: https://scenic.zoom.us/
