St Petersburg, Tallinn & Riga - a must see for anyone





















This is our first voyage in 2009 to St Petersburg & The Baltic. It is always the most popular cruise we feature and if you look at some of the images above you will see why. Our two days in St Petersburg were spectacular, our berth was at English Embankment - the most central berth in this imperial city and it is certainly the best cruise ship berth. Because of our size, we are one of the few cruise ships who can sail this far down the Neva River. Virtually all of our guests enjoyed at least one excursion here and in most cases our guests enjoyed a city tour, a visit to the famous Hermitage, a visit to the ballet and at least one of the famous palaces. The weather was very kind to us and after two action packed days we sailed for the Medieval city of Tallinn in Estonia. After leaving Tallinn we arrived into the Latvian captial Riga. Enjoy some of the highlights above.
Check out our blog tomorrow when we will share our Village Fete memories with you.
