River Cruises – Exciting and Affordable

River cruising is the most attractive and affordable form of travel.

If you have to travel a long way to the sea by train or plane, then a river cruise can be started from your home town or a neighboring town. Travel agencies today offer a variety of routes from Moscow and St. Petersburg and other cities. Having decided to travel by river, tourists can visit several cities in one trip and learn about their history.

No other trip gives the opportunity to get to know several cities at once. It is river cruises that allow you to see both small towns and large cities. Stops are made at each place for several hours. During this time, travelers will be able to take an excursion already included in the price, as well as independently get to know the sights of the town where the stop is planned.

River cruises are very popular among those who like to relax with the whole family. The organizers do not forget about children: the ship has an entertainment program for them, and during excursions around the cities, little passengers will significantly expand their knowledge. During the day, tourists are offered city visits, exciting games and entertainment. And in the evening, the ships host theme dinners, captains' receptions, and a fun disco with live music.

The ships designed for long cruises around Russia are different. The number of decks determines the number of passengers that the ship can accommodate. Accordingly, the larger the capacity, the more varied the entertainment will be. The price of a river trip usually depends on the technical condition, quality and design of the finish. At the same time, no matter what design the ship is, the service on any of them is provided at the level of European standards. In any case, a delightful vacation is guaranteed for tourists.

We must not forget about food. During any cruise, professional chefs work on ships. Travelers will be able to taste dishes that you will not find even in the most exquisite restaurant. High-class staff, food at the proper level - these are the components of a wonderful holiday.

An amazing cruise along the rivers of Russia takes place between the two capitals of Russia. This route is the second most popular among tourists. While traveling, you can learn almost the entire history of Rus'. The journey begins in Moscow. Moving further along the Volga, the ship makes a voyage through ancient cities with their ancient history, monasteries, unique temples, and valuable cultural monuments.

First, in Uglich, tourists will visit monasteries and temples, in Yaroslavl - the Church of Elijah the Prophet and the Transfiguration Monastery. A stop in the village of Goritsy includes an acquaintance with the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery with its 16th-century frescoes. On Kizhi Island, tourists find themselves in the 18th century, in the so-called "wooden fairy tale", where they can admire churches girdled with wooden lace. The river cruise finishes in St. Petersburg - the Northern Capital of our homeland, one of the most European cities in Russia.
