Review summary

A very good trip. Booked it only 2 days from embarkation so took our chances with the last cabin 9n the ship. Lots of character and fun.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

No problems at all. We stayed just 5 minutes away so it was all a breeze. 30 minutes from turning up to getting on the ship.

Visited an English speaking school which opened especially for us on a Sunday. Had a great time there. The orchestra put on a show which was amazing. Everyone was so pleased to see us.

Sorry but a poor stop. We were wanting to go off independently but it was too late once our number had been called!! The Russian immigration took too long and many guests were frustrated. Also very rough for the tenders and a few had problems with very heavy seas. A long queue to get back and it was freezing.
