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.
Russia's greatest cities and its ancient capitals
One of the most special things about Moscow - St. Petersburg cruise is that it takes you not only to Russia's magnificent capitals of Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also its ancient city-kingdoms, castles and villages scattered in between. You've got to see Moscow and St. Petersburg - our programs have been designed to give 3-4 full days to explore these amazing city. You've got to see remote Kizhi island, where the soviet planners hided the masterpiece Transfiguration Cathedral. You've got to see Ulgich, Goritsy and so much more that every cruise program from Moscow to St. Petersburg offers.

capital of Eastern part of the Mongol Empire and since then, the Moscovia crossed swords with the Ottoman Empire. Russia's south is home to many great cities, like Volgograd (former Stalingrad), Astrakhan and many great cultures, like Cossacks.
