Moscow, Russia


We went on a river cruise with the Cruise People about 6 years ago to Russia. We spent 12 days sailing from Moscow to St. Petersburgh.

It was great being escorted by people who have been all over the world and really know how to handle things.

We loved this cruise. river boats are small. there were only about 200 people on our boat. Every day we stopped in another little town.

You just can't see this type of country side from a sea cruise. We'd recommend this type of cruise to anyone who really wants an indepth cultural experience. The sights, the people were all so welcoming and unexpected.

We took this picture of St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow. Believe it or not, it's only oneof about 400 we took on the trip!

We've traveled with The Cruise People every year now and sometimes twice a year. Can't wait to hear where Karen & Marty have chosen to go next.

We'd love to sail on the Volga from Moscow down to Odessa on the Red Sea. Have you two thought about doing that?
