A vast and diverse land, Russia is difficult to embrace in a single visit—unless you travel deep into its heritage by sailing along the country’s main artery—the Volga River. This new, innovative journey is one way to truly capture the essence of Russia’s regal and pastoral beauty. Visit Moscow’s famous Red Square and the Kremlin, explore ornate Eastern churches in rustic riverside villages, cruise through miles of unspoiled evergreen forests and admire the old imperial architecture of St. Petersburg’s Catherine Palace. You’ll sail in the vast White Lake and Lake Onega and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Those with a penchant for fine art will revel in the visit to the Hermitage Museum, which houses paintings of Picasso, Rembrandt and da Vinci. Among the trip’s most unique and memorable moments may well be an authentic Piroshki tea party, the open-air museum at Kizhi and a sampling of blini and caviar—all of which are sure to provide an invaluable glimpse into Russia’s profound and thriving culture.
