| In September 2017 we were on a river cruise i Russia. We sailed from Moscow through the Moscow River, Moscow Canal and Volga River to Astrakhan at The Caspian Sea. Hereafter we sailed back to Volgograd from where we sailed through the Volga-Don Canal and into River Don. By River Don we sailed to Rostov at the Sea of Azov. On this web page we show you some pictures from our tour. Click on the pictures for seeing them in full size. |
