Russia
There's more to Russia than snow, vodka and James Bond villains! Why not discover the real Russia on a Baltic cruise to St Petersburg?
'Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.'
Winston Churchill's quote may be 70 years old, yet it still captures something of the essence of the extraordinary country that was central to the uphevals of the 20th century.
This is a huge country and, astonishingly, by way of example, Russia’s lakes contain a quarter of the world’s fresh water!
Built at the behest of Peter the Great as a 'Window on the West,' St.Petersburg remains the ‘cultural capital’ of Russia and owing to the fabulous monuments throughout the city including numerous grand palaces and gardens, the whole city has been declared a UNESCO world heritage site.
From the Hermitage to Catherine’s Palace, there is so much to see and do so we heartily recommend that passengers come ashore for the day and make use of our fabulous St Petersburg tours to really get the best out of this amazing city.
