Russia is a country of rich history, culture and traditions and is one of the most magnetic destinations on our planet. Lets face it - everyone wants to see Russia some day. Russian river cruise from Moscow to St. Petersburg is one of the best ways of seeing Russia. It's the most popular Russian river cruise, inf fact.

You might be surprised to know, but it has been a busy river route for quite some time. The Vikings sailed on it as long as one thousand years ago to reach Greece and it was along this ancient trade route and along the banks of these rivers that the Russian civilization was born.

Some of the parts of this route were not navigable and Vikings would literally lift their boats and carry them over land. But don't worry - this is no longer necessary thanks to a series of man-made canals and locks (built by Stalin's decree in 1930s) to connect Moscow to five different seas.
