Itinerary

  • Day 1 - Dudinka: the city of the "northernmost" attractions

    The Dudinka River and Sea International Port is a unique place.

    To begin with, this is the only seaport in the world whose berths are flooded during the spring flood.

    And that's not all: in the center of the town there are real plagues, in which the hosts receive guests in traditional folk costumes.

    Group transfer from Norilsk airport (the time of meeting and boarding the ship must be specified before buying tickets).

    Registration on board the ship.
