Scenic Tours founded a new company for the European Market. When I read this first I was a bit confused, as Scenic already operates 7 ships in Europe and owns 100% Evergreen Tours. For the last seasons (2012, 2013) Evergreen Tours chartered Lüftner vessels for its cruises, usually the Amadeus Brilliant. Now it looks like as if Scenic is going to expand, using it's own vessels - owned by Riva Waterways.
