Join us on a river – sea cruise aboard the MS Taras Shevchenko between Istanbul and Kiev, a journey linking four different countries and cultures – Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine. Our tour starts in Istanbul where we spend two nights in a 4* hotel. Istanbul is the only city in the world that spans over two continents - Europe and Asia. It is a living museum with its historical sites in open air. After lunch in a local restaurant we drive to Nessebar – an ancient town in Bulgaria included on UNESCO World Heritage List – where we board our boat. We continue our discovery journey along the coast of the Black Sea docking in Constanta and Crimea with its picturesque beaches and unique flora. Sailing along the mighty Dnepr we will visit Zaporozhye – centre of Cossack culture. Our cruise ends in Kiev one of the most beautiful cities of Europe, stretching along picturesque banks of the river Dnepr. It is where the Russian State was founded in 9th century.
