Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

All your burning questions answered! From safety measures to booking procedures, find everything you need to know before you embark on your journey.

Tiki Boat Boston logo variation that is looking for a FAQ or for a directions

Tiki cruises are so much better with friends! That’s why we require 6 islanders to go out. If there are less than 6 people booked for the cruise the day before, we will contact you and reschedule to the closest available time or issue you a credit which can be used to rebook at any time in the future.

Physically or spiritually? Oh, the boring one.

Our address is 60 Rowes Wharf (directly behind the Boston Harbor Hotel) and the dock our boats depart from can be accessed from Gate B or Gate C.

If you’re having trouble finding us, try taking a look at our pinned  Instagram  story conveniently named “Location”!

Now what kind of Tiki cruise would it be without some tunes?! We have a Spotify set up on board ready to play your favorite tropical beats.

On public cruises, the captain is also the DJ. They do take requests, but they reserve the right to deny a request if they believe it will mess up the vibe of the boat. No hard feelings!

On private cruises, you are the DJ. You get full access to the playlist and you can blast your heavy-metal-K-pop mashup all through Boston Harbor if that’s your cup of rum.

Our public events have a capacity of 24 passengers, this gives all our guests plenty of room to sit down or walk around the deck. Our private parties can have up to 30 guests.

To serve drinks on a boat you have to follow quite a few rules, so we can only welcome passengers aged 16 and up on public cruises. But don’t worry, all ages are welcome for private cruises, so bring the whole ohana! Also, just a heads up you have to be at least 21 or older to sit at the bar. Make sure to have your ID ready for a quick check when boarding!

Short answer – please don’t be! All of our boats run on a pretty tight schedule so we have to depart at the scheduled time. No worries though, we know delays happen and we can always try to hold the boat for a few minutes, but please allow ample time to get to the dock for your scheduled cruise.

If you do end up missing your cruise, we’ll try to put you on another one later in the day, but if we’re unable to do so, your tickets will not be honored. Sorry!

Islanders are encouraged to tip the crew, not the boat, during the cruise should you feel you’ve been provided with exceptional service. Additionally, you will receive a follow-up email asking about your experience with a link to leave a gratuity if you were blown away. Gratuity is split among the crew that made your experience possible. We highly appreciate any gratuities!

Looking at the forecast and seeing gray? Don’t believe a word they say! We’re kidding of course, but our New England weather is so unpredictable that it’s pretty much impossible to plan too far ahead.

If it happens to be raining at the time of your cruise, it shouldn’t be a problem at all – our boat has a roof and sides that come down so we like to believe it’s always 75 and sunny!

We always keep a close eye on the radar and if the weather does get a bit more extreme (heavy wind, thunderstorm,..) and we do have to cancel, we’ll make sure to notify you as soon as possible and offer you a reschedule or a full refund. Usually, this will be on the day of your cruise.

A Hawaiian shirt and a Lei, of course. That’s the official Tiki Islander uniform! Basically, wear whatever feels comfortable, but we always advise to bring an extra layer just in case. The temperature in the harbor changes throughout the day so it is better to be safe than chilly.

Unfortunately, since all of our boats carry a liquor license, we can not allow any outside beverages. Don’t worry, our bartender will make sure to keep you well-hydrated!

*Please note, that no beverages or cups can be taken off the boat after your cruise.

Of course! Feel free to bring your favorite light snacks to enjoy alongside our tropical cocktails.

Just make sure it’s nothing too messy – if there is a mess after the cruise that requires a cleaning crew, we do have to charge a $200 cleaning fee. It hasn’t happened yet, but nobody wants to be the first, so no shrimp cocktail towers or build-your-own taco stations please!

The cruise is in total 1 hour and 30 minutes long. The first 10 minutes is boarding and the last 5 minutes are deboarding.

Yes, we have a bathroom located at the rear of the boat.

Absolutely! We have 12 seats at the bar and another 12 at the front of the boat.

*Seating at the bar is first come, first serve and reserved for customers 21+.

Yes, we have a full bar on board which offers canned drinks as well as tropical cocktails.

We know sometimes life gets in the way and plans change. No worries – we got your back! If you need to cancel your booking, we can issue you a credit for the full amount that can be used to rebook at any time ( the credit does not expire! ). Keep in mind that a lot of people are eager to cruise with us, so we do require a 72-hour notice for all c! If you cancel your cruise within 72 hours of departure, you will not be eligible for credit. We do not provide refunds.

Amazing Time for our Group

Had an amazing time on the tiki boat with our group! Our bartender Flavio was the man and made us a ton of fun, tropical drinks. Would have stayed on the boat all day if we could!

Party on water!

First of all, I was skeptical about this Tiki Boat Cruise ( I didn’t do any research and I was invited by a family member) and let me tell you that this Tiki Boat Cruise was definitely the highlight of my summer 2023. I had so much fun!! Captain Cory, Leah and Brittney they made sure that everyone on the boat was having fun by having the drinks coming and the music choice was better than the clubs DJ (no lie).

Tiki Boat Fun for all ages!

We booked the TikiBoat for my mom’s 90th birthday! So much fun cruising around Boston Harbor! Our captain was excellent in providing a smooth & safe cruise! The bartender mixed us up some tasty drinks! Prices were decent for the city. Sit at the bar, or the benches around the front deck or stand and dance to the lively music.You can bring or own snacks or cake on board.As for accessibility: The ramp from the boardwalk at Row’s Wharf to the dock was wide, with excrement hand rails, and not too steep. Use the public restrooms behind the ferry office, clean and with a handicap stall. There is a small bathroom on board.You need to ‘Mind the gap’ between the dock and the TikiBoat. Captain and crew helpful to bring my mobility challenged husband on board with his scooter.Highly recommend this 90 minute cruise. Great fun for all ages!d!

We’ll definitely sail again!

My husband and I booked a cruise with Tiki Boat Boston for our first wedding anniversary and I honestly hope it becomes a tradition. We had so much fun on the boat! Our captain and bartender were very friendly and we found ourselves laughing with the other guests on the boat because of the relaxed atmosphere. The drink prices were extremely reasonable, the music was perfect for a beachy vibe, and the views were incredible. We had a scheduling conflict and had to change our tour from the sunset cruise to city lights. The office staff made this a quick and easy fix, which we were grateful for. I look forward to our next trip with Boston Tiki Boat!

The 7 Best Boston Harbor Cruises [2024 Reviews]

Boston may not be as glittery as New York City, or as opulent as Paris, but it is absolutely the perfect place to visit if you’d like to immerse yourself in the cradle of American history.

Every time I visit, I fall more in love with the way the wind tousles my hair and the salty sea air fills my lungs. Towering skyscrapers contrast legendary landmarks like the Old North Church and Fenway Park, creating beautiful images you have to see to believe.

If you want to experience it in one of the best ways possible, I highly recommend checking out these top Boston Harbor dinner and sunset cruises. History, beauty, and adventure intermingle here, from the infamous Boston Tea Party to harbor island mysteries – there’s something for everyone.

Boston Harbor Cruise Reviews

1. boston harbor: gourmet brunch or dinner cruise.

  • Duration:  2 – 3 hours
  • Departure:  60 Rowes Wharf, Boston
  • Departure Time: 7:00 PM
  • Includes:  Buffet brunch or 3-course dinner, coffee, tea, iced tea, onboard DJ and dance floor

Starting things off on the right foot, we have one of the most popular tours of its kind in all of Boston. The Boston Harbor: Gourmet Brunch or Dinner Cruise Tour  is perfect for those who are looking to enjoy life, and perhaps get down to some danceable tunes on board!

If you’ve just landed in the city or its your first time there, this is a perfect introduction to the shimmering waters and the interesting architecture which surrounds it.

Once you arrive to your comfortable boat, you’ll be escorted on board where you’ll get to hang out and relax for a while and enjoy being greeted by the captain and crew.

I felt like the staff was top-notch, with an elegant and charming atmosphere and incredible attention to detail and customer service. As you meet them, you’ll have a photo taken to capture the moment by the ship’s professional photographer.

Once seated at your private table, the stage is set for a culinary adventure that honestly was a pleasant surprise.

Expand To See More See Less

The executive chef is simply a genius, creating a gastronomic symphony consisting of a 3-course plated dinner (you can also opt for a lavish buffet brunch if you’re looking for a morning tour).

Whatever you choose, you can count on each dish dancing on your taste buds, showcasing the chef’s creativity and dedication to using fresh, quality ingredients.

However, the food, combined with the panoramic views of Boston’s skyline, seeing the iconic Bunker Hill, and the impressive USS Constitution were all amazing!

The live DJ put on songs to get everyone dancing, and with the Odyssey’s three climate-controlled decks, there are plenty of ways to enjoy the view and the entire experience.

More Information & Tour Booking

100% refund for cancellations within 24 hours of tour experience, 2. boston harbor champagne sunset sail from rowes wharf.

  • Duration:  2 hours
  • Departure: 70 Rowes Wharf, Boston
  • Departure Time:  7:30 PM
  • Includes:  2-hour sunset sail tour,  Captain and crew, complimentary water

The allure of the open sea, gentle sway of a boat, and the warm setting sun on the skin is always appealing when you’re in Boston. On this next tour, you’ll feel like you’re being transported back in time on an elegant 80-foot classic Schooner.

The Boston: Harbor Champagne Sunset Sail from Rowes Wharf is a fantastic way to enjoy a celebratory evening with that special someone, or a wonderful precursor to a delicious dinner onshore. This sightseeing sunset cruise is romantic, yet engaging enough to bring children along, too!

As the sails catch the evening breeze, you’ll be able to fully relax onboard and enjoy the sprawling Boston skyline while settling in and enjoying either complimentary water, beer, wine, or champagne.

Soft drinks are also available to purchase, which I did feel like should have been free of charge, but it wasn’t a big deal. However, I was really impressed by the vessel itself: the Adirondack III, which offered mesmerizing views.

You’ll get to see all kinds of historic sites, from the Boston Fish Pier to the Moakley Federal Courthouse – each one being a testament to the city’s rich heritage.

The graceful vessel was super smooth, making the thoughtfully-curated selection of beverages that much more enjoyable as we journeyed on. What really made the experience special, though, was the attentive crew who regaled us with tales of the sea.

You’ll learn all about the Charleston Navy Yard, Waterfront Park, the secrets of Boston Harbor, and more, as you pass each location. As the sun starts due set, it casts beautiful gold and amber across the horizon, making it perfect for some selfies against the Boston skyline!

Don’t forget to take snaps of Castle Island, the Donald McKay Monument, and the nature, itself!

3. Signature Spirit of Boston Lunch Cruise

  • Duration:  2 hours
  • Departure:  200 Seaport Blvd. Boston
  • Departure Time:  12:00 PM
  • Includes:  2-hour lunch cruise, All-you-can-eat buffet, DJ entertainment, Coffee, tea and iced tea, taxes and fees

Instead of going out to lunch somewhere on land, why don’t you try something exclusively “Boston” and enjoy dining right on the water where so many important moments from American history occurred?

The Signature Spirit of Boston Lunch Cruise Tour  will take you to a world of breathtaking historic city views with a laid-back and fun-filled ride like no other.

This tour perfectly melds history, beautiful sites, and tasty eats with professional staff that are there to ensure you have a fantastic experience right from the get-go!

Arrive at the Seaport World Trade Center, where you’ll board the beautiful vessel that features multiple decks for you to enjoy different kinds of views.

After exploring the decks, you can find your way to a table against the panoramic windows and get ready for an amazing lunch buffet! It is all-you-can-eat and I found everything but the desserts to be exceptional (the desserts aren’t bad, just nothing special).

As you glide through the waters, get ready to pass by the World Trade Center, the site where rebels started the Boston Tea Party, where the Boston Massacre claimed the lives of many colonists, and more.

One of the coolest parts of the tour, for me, was seeing the World War II Naval destroyer, the USS Cassin Young, along with the USS Constitution, known lovingly as “Old Ironsides”.

You’ll hear all about the oldest fully-commissioned naval vessel in the world, as well as Fort Independence, and the Tobin Memorial Bridge: a symbol of progress. Head up to the top deck, where you can get some fresh air and views that stretch out as far as the eye can see.

This makes for some fantastic videos and photos, with no obstructions to block your field of vision. Oh, and if you feel like getting your groove on, there is a live DJ on board spinning all kinds of fun tunes! You can choose to get out on the dancefloor or simply focus on the amazing views all around you as you cruise on.

4. Boston Sunset Tall Ship Harbor Cruise

  • Duration:  1.5 to 2 hours
  • Departure:  1 Central Wharf, Boston
  • Departure Time: 6:00 PM
  • Includes:  Cruise, learn how to hoist sails properly

How would you like to be whisked away on a sailing experience that will ignite your sense of wonder and take you on a historic journey through Boston Harbor’s legendary waters?

With the  Boston: Sunset Tall Ship Harbor Cruise Tour , you’ll be transported to a bygone era by boarding either the majestic Schooner Liberty or the nimble Liberty Star.

See and learn all about the Boston skyline, the iconic harbor, and the various neighborhoods’ backgrounds all from the prime viewing location right on the water, as the sun is setting!

Upon arrival to the harbor, you’ll be greeted by the captain and crew and can even help the crew hoist the same old-school way! It’s not for the faint of heart, but it is a fun activity that most people won’t have done before!

Either way, enjoy the cool breeze and help out or relax, enjoy a drink, and watch as the others struggle to haul the massive sails! Everyone is incredibly friendly and you can tell that they truly enjoy sharing the experience and their knowledge with visitors.

If you select the Liberty Star ride, it will be 1.5 hours, while the Liberty Clipper will be a bit longer, at 2 hours long. If you’d like, you can even take a turn at the helm and get an idea of what it’s like to steer such a massive vessel!

While no coolers or BYOB is permitted and while there is no food served on board, you can bring your own food and make a picnic while cruising along and taking in all the sites!

As you cruise along, the captain and crew will tell you all about the rich and rather dramatic history of Boston and its harbor. Take photos and enjoy the magnificent views of the Boston skyline, with its array of architectural marvels, where the Prudential Tower and John Hancock Tower rises proudly out over the water.

5. Sunset Sailing Cruise on a Tall Ship in Boston Harbor

  • Departure: 6:00 PM
  • Departure Time:  Central Wharf, Boston
  • Includes:  Free exercise if you help the crew hoist those sails, Sales tax, unique view of the Boston skyline, Sunset Cruise of Boston Harbor on one of the famous Tall Ships

This next 2-hour tour has proven to be some of the most fun you can have while in Boston! The Sunset Sailing Cruise on a Tall Ship in Boston Harbor Tour  also gives you the option of sailing out on the 67-foot Liberty Star or the 125-foot Liberty Clipper, where you will be able to enjoy interesting stories, views, and a beautiful experience.

This classic sailing adventure will take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city and go back in time, with plenty of fresh air and sunshine!

Start off by making your way over to the Central Wharf, where you’ll meet up with the captain and crew before boarding. You get to choose if you’d like to help the crew by grabbing a line and hoisting up the sails, or relaxing and watching the fun take place in front of you.

If you have any questions, they’re more than happy to fill you in on technique or anything else you may want to know. I loved how much space there was onboard, with plenty of different viewpoints to catch the surrounding harbor and skyline views.

This is a great way to spend an afternoon before grabbing dinner and watching the sunrise from one of the best vantage points possible. As you cruise on, you’ll pass important sites such as Fort Independence, East Boston, the Charlestown Navy Yard, and much more.

As you pass each location, the crew will recount interesting anecdotes and fun stories that only enrich the experience, overall. Should you get thirsty or want a little snack, they sell both at the ship’s galley bar, too.

6. Sightseeing Day Sail around Boston Harbor

  • Duration:  1.5 to 2 hours
  • Departure Time: Variety of times available
  • Includes:  Unique tour

This is the perfect way to create a fun and relaxing time when in the city, especially if it’s your first time in Boston.

The Sightseeing Day Sail around Boston Harbor Tour  is one of the best ways to get the “lay of the land” in a short amount of time, so you can further explore the ones that caught your attention later on.

With smooth sailing, interesting historical accounts, an environment perfect for all ages, and fantastic views, you definitely need to consider this tour!

I will say that this is one of the more “basic” tours in terms of food and entertainment such as live music and dancing, but that didn’t detract at all from our experience. In fact, for history buffs (particularly regarding American history), I found this to be one of the most interesting options out there!

Your tour will start off by you and your party heading to Rowes Wharf, where you’ll board a replica of a pilot schooner which was so impressive!

After boarding, you’ll have plenty of time to ask the captain and crew any questions you may have about the vessel, their jobs, or the city, itself. I loved how knowledgeable and friendly everyone was, which made it feel like you were simply hanging out with friends.

You do get to choose between either a 1.5-hour or 2-hour tour, which I felt were both timed and planned nicely.

There is a water cooler available to fill reusable bottles, so remember to bring one if you plan on hydrating. There is also a card-only bar on board where you can enjoy wine, beer, and plenty of soft drinks. With various start times available, you’re sure to be able to fit this tour in, no matter what your schedule looks like!

7. Boston Downtown Harbor Sailing Cruise

  • Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours
  • Departure: 70 Rowes Wharf
  • Departure Time: 1:00 PM or 3:00 PM
  • Includes:  1.5 or 2-hour sailing cruise (depending on option selected),  Captain and crew,  Complimentary soda and water

Prepare to throw out any mundane plans you may have had and instead, embark on an exhilarating voyage that will completely redefine your perception of Boston.

The  Boston: Downtown Harbor Sailing Cruise Tour  will ship you and your party off on a sailing adventure that’s perfect for the entire family, no matter the age or background of the participants.

You’ll get to experience the 80-foot pilot schooner, the Adiondack III, which gives you insane views of Beantown and its downtown area that you’re sure to fall in love with.

Meet up with your captain and crew at Rowes Wharf and hop onboard so you can be escorted around and find the perfect spot to soak it all in. Feast your eyes on a panorama packed full of iconic landmarks that you may already know about from movies or school.

From the storied Boston Fish Pier to the rather imposing Moakley Federal Courthouse at Fan Pier, you’ll get to see history and culture literally unfolding as you sail on by.

As you pass each area, the crew will fill you in on any interesting anecdotes as well as more well-known stories about them. I was particularly captivated by the majestic Castle Island, which was known for all kinds of important battles fought and victories won, here.

If you’re into maritime heritage at all, you’ll love seeing the historic Charleston Navy Yard and hearing fascinating tales about the people who frequented it and special events that occurred here.

The Waterfront Park is a beautiful green haven that offers a bit of a break from the busy city streets, along with the New England Aquarium which you may choose to explore more later on. If you would like any recommendations, I found the captain and crew to be practically experts on the matter.

Kremlin

Moscow : The first day is arrival day. You are welcome on board! Check in starts at 14:00 (2.00 PM), but you may arrive earlier or later on that day. If you order a transfer you will be met at the airport or train station by one of our drivers and taken by a comfortable car to the river port where you will board your cruise ship (transfer is OPTIONAL).

Over the next few days you will have a chance to explore Moscow and learn about its riveting history. You will be taken on a city tour where you will see Moscow's most interesting sights and learn about this amazing city's past and present. You will also have a chance to do some light shopping and there will be time to relax aboard the ship in the evenings. One of the highlights of your time in Moscow is a visit to Red Square  and the Kremlin . You will also visit one of the Kremlin's famous cathedrals. The Kremlin as we know it today was rebuilt as a stone structure during the beginning of the 14th century but the actual site had been inhabited and used as a fortified city wall for centuries before this period. The Kremlin is truly a fascinating structure - at the same time it is an ancient tower, the city's former military fortification, a palace and the workplace of the Russian President. The Kremlin is the center of Russia's political life and State power and has been home to Tsars, General Secretaries of the Soviet Union and Russian Presidents.

Moscow is Russia's political and financial capital as well as a major world class cultural center. The city includes many must see attractions from the Kremlin and Red Square to the Assumption Cathedral. Moscow is the largest city in Europe. It is unique in that it blends the ancient with the modern. See medieval structures among modern office buildings, walk down crooked old city streets opening up to wide busy boulevards. It is a fantastic city and truly a site that shouldn't be missed.

Uglich : You will be taken to the walking city tour with visit to Kremlin , the Church of St. Demitrius on the Blood and the Transfiguration cathedral .

Uglich was founded in 1148 as a small princedom bordering on Muscovy, Uglich is one of the most beloved towns in Old Russia. The view of the town as you approach it from the Volga River is breathtaking with the Cathedral of the Resurrection and St. John´s Church rising up on the horizon. The history of the town is fascinating; At the end of the 16th century, Maria Nagaya, seventh wife of Ivan the Terrible, lived in honorary exile at the Kremlin in Uglich. It was here in her garden that the 10 year old Prince Dmitry of the Rurik Dynasty, heir to the Russian throne was murdered by Boris Godunov who wanted to seize power for himself. On the spot of his death, the Church of St. Demitrius of the Blood was built and still stands today. The death of Prince Dmitri brought on the start of the Time of Troubles, a dynastic and political crises and one of the most tumultuous periods in Russian history which ended 15 years later after the election of a new Tsar Mikhail Romanov (the first Tsar of the Romanov Dynasty). Inside the Kremlin the oldest building in Uglich, the Palace of Tsarevich Dmitry also stands. During your time in Uglich you will learn more about the town's past and walk along the paths of Russian history.

Yaroslavl : You will be taken to the panoramic city tour with a visit to a local market (free time). You will also see the Church of Elijah the Prophet (exterior), Church of St Nicholas (interior) and enjoy an interactive tour of former Governor's House (and visit to an Art Gallery).

Yaroslavl : Stretching for 18 miles on both banks of the Volga , Yaroslavl is an important Volga port with a population of 600,000. It was founded in the 1010 by Prince Yaroslav the Wise and is one of the ancient Russian cities making up the Golden Ring . It was destroyed by the Tatars in the 13th and 14th centuries but then restored and rebuilt and by the 17th century it had become Russia's second largest city after Moscow and an important cultural and political center. Today, Yaroslavl retains many noteworthy monuments of its colorful past. Of special interest is the magnificent 13th century Spassky Monastery ensemble, a group of majestic 17th century cathedrals, an elegant rotunda and remnants of an ancient trading center. The churches of St. Nicholas and Elijah the Prophet have some of the Golden Ring's most impressive frescoes.

Goritsy : You'll tour the St. Cyril on the White Lake Monastery and Museum of Icons .

Goritsy is a tiny settlement 7 kilometers from the St. Cyril on the White Lake Monastery. The remains of the Nunnery of the Resurrection that sits on the banks of the Sheksna River can be visited and is within a quarter of a mile of where the ship stops. Goritsy is definitely a site to see for anyone with an interest in Russian history. St. Cyril on the White Lake was founded in 1397 by Kirill Belosersky on the shore of Lake Siverskoye. The monastery had wide trade in the 15th to 17th centuries and was used as a fortress to protect Russia's nobility during the Times of Troubles.

After the tour you will return to your ship and set sail in the direction of St. Petersburg along the Volga Baltic Canal. The Volga Baltic Canal is a series of canals and rivers that connect the Volga river to the Baltic Sea.

You'll cruise along Europe's second largest lake, Lake Onega and arrive on the island of Kizhi . Here you will visit a fascinating open air museum containing numerous examples of elaborate Russian, wooden architecture.

Kizhi Island : Via the Volga Baltic Canal, our cruise takes us to the tiny island of Kizhi, located at the northern end of Lake Onega. The island is renowned for its open-air Museum of Architecture , which is assembled from over 80 monuments of wooden architecture from various areas of the country and restored to form a glimpse of the past. The most impressive site on the island is the Church of the Transfiguration or Preobrazhenskaya (the church of twenty-two wooden domes). This masterpiece of architecture, featuring five tiers of 22 domes, was built in 1714 without the use of a single nail, only an axe and pine trees. The church magically changes color as the day grows old, it is certainly one of the most interesting things you will see during your time in Russia.

boston harbor dj cruise

Mandrogui : Enjoy walking around this traditional Russian village in its beautiful setting and spending a day of rest, relaxation and fun. We will have a fantastic barbeque picnic on the banks of the river featuring one of Russia's favorite specialties - shashlik (meat shish kebab prepared on an outdoor fire). You will love it!

Mandrogui : is really more of a living museum than a live-in village. It features a collection of old wooden houses and is geared towards showing visitors what a traditional Russian village resembled in the past. One of the features here is the Vodka Museum, which contains thousands of different brands and types of Russia's favorite pastime.

Peterhof

St. Petersburg : Your time in St. Petersburg will begin with a Panoramic City Tour . This tour is the best way to get acquainted with all of the city's major highlights. Our professional guide will take you down Nevsky Prospect , St. Petersburg's most famous and vibrant thoroughfare. There you will see some of the city's most interesting architectural monuments including the Kazan Cathedral (exterior) and the Winter Palace. You will see the Peter and Paul Fortress (interior) - a symbol of St. Petersburg and also the oldest building in the city.

One of the highlights of your entire cruise will be a visit to the Hermitage , Russia's premier museum containing one of the largest art collections in the world. The museum consists of five historical buildings including the Winter Palace - the residence of the Russian Tsars. The museum contains over 3 million pieces of art with dates ranging from high antiquity to the present day. Among the Hermitage's treasures are artworks by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Titian, Rembrandt, Rubens and many others.

During your time in St. Petersburg you will also visit Peterhof - former summer residence of the Russian Emperors, located on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. You will see the Lower Park - a genuine masterpiece of landscape design which can compete with Versailles in France. The park includes over 150 fountains and 4 monumental cascades.

On the last day of your cruise you will say goodbye to Russia, your ship's crew and the many new friends we are sure you will have met during your time with us. We are sure that your memories of the trip will last a lifetime and we look forward to welcoming you to Russia sometime in the future. Our driver will meet you at the ship and take you to the airport to see you off (transfer is optional).

St. Petersburg is Russia's second largest and second most important city - the Northern capital of the country, Russia's cultural center, and considered the world's "Northern Venice" due to its extensive system of canals and islands. Walk along Nevsky Prospect and experience the grandeur of pre-revolutionary imperial Russia. Pass palaces from the past and gaze at the famous embankment of the Neva River with its numerous bridges and striking architecture.
