ABOUT THE SHIP
"Moonlight Sonata" is a large boarding ship. The ratio of the number of crew members to the number of guests: 1:3.

The ship will delight its guests with musical themes. It is expressed in the exterior of the ship, the names of restaurants, coffee shops and other public spaces, in cabins.

Here everyone will find something to do: from playing mini golf to enjoying a concert program in the Music Hall. 

The company has been creating river cruises in Russia since 2004 and is the shipowner of 9 comfortable motor ships. All ships have been upgraded and have different classes of cabins. The uniform standard of the company is the presence on each ship of a separate deck of cabins with a balcony.

The company offers cruises on its own ships in the central part of Russia, along the Volga, Kama, Don and others rivers, as well as along the Ob and Irtysh rivers of Siberia.

As part of the "Discovering the World" project, the company organizes cruises on Lake Baikal and the Turkish Riviera along the Mediterranean Sea.

The company's mission is to make people happy!
