How To Choose a Go Russia Cruise
OUR BOATS AND LIFE ONBOARD
Motor Ships
All motor ships operating on our cruises are built either in Germany (majority of ships) or Austria, all have been refurbished. The boats are of a similar type and there are no major differences between them. Standard facilities onboard include: restaurants, bars, public lounges, dance hall, small souvenir shop, sauna, doctor. Please note these are not luxurious cruise liners like those operating on Transatlantic routes, but rather solid, good quality, well-maintained and clean vessels that can be compared to a 3* decent hotel.
Cabins
Accommodation is offered on four decks: main, middle, boat and sun (where available) deck. The major difference is the location on the ship with the boat / sun deck being on the top. You are likely to have better views from cabins located on top decks (boat and sun) where it is also quieter as ship entrance and reception are located on the main deck.
All standard cabins are the same regardless of the location and equipped with private facilities and a shower, wardrobe, radio, refrigerator and air conditioning. There is a large picture window in each cabin. Standard cabins are on a twin basis. If you prefer more comfort and space during your voyage please chose among our Junior Suite Twin Bed and Junior Suite Double Bed packages, there are also luxury 2-roomed suites with double hotel-style beds and large living area for those who prefer travelling in style.
Life onboard & Entertainment
You will never be bored on our cruises as there is a full event programme on every cruise: languages courses, lectures, dance classes, tea-drinking and vodka tasting parties, nesting dolls painting class, captain's bridge tour, nightly entertainment and dancing, daily aerobics and much more. Also there will be a special farewell captain’s dinner, for which smart casual attire (a jacket & tie for gentlemen and a dress for ladies) is recommended, black tie is not necessary.
