Your once in a lifetime journey through Russia

By Nicholas Bloom

The best of both worlds – The Volga Dream Experience

There are a few cities in the world that cannot be described unless you have been there – Moscow and St Petersburg are two such cities. The presence of history, drama, frivolity and calamity are all engendered in the atmosphere that pervades these two cities. This combined with 5 nights cruising the Volga river and its rural settlement created a unique perspective into the life, culture and character of Russia.

On the Volga Dream you get the best of both worlds. You get to cruise between these two great cities, exploring and discovering rural Russia and in Moscow and St Petersburg you are based in the centre of the city in lovely 5 star hotels – right in the heart of the scene. Explore yourself or in the sanctuary of a small group.

The Experience:

• 13 days 12 night Hotel Cruise Tour
• Luxury Hotel Stay in true 5 star central accommodation in Moscow and St Petersburg
• Don’t waste time driving to and from the river ports (up to 3 hrs a day)
