Introduction
Cruise in superior comfort aboard the 196-passenger MS Valentina. Allowing you to journey between the fascinating cities of Moscow and St Petersburg with ease, this elegant vessel offers stylish interiors as well as comfortable staterooms and suites.
Purpose-built for Russia's waterways.
Any disability requiring special attention must be reported to APT at the time of booking. APT will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the special needs of disabled cruise participants, but is not responsible for any denial of services by carriers, hotels, restaurants, or other independent suppliers. Tour buses are not equipped with wheelchair ramps and cabin doors are not wide enough to allow access by standard wheelchairs.
Wheelchairs and walkers cannot be carried on tour buses, due to space limitations. Wheelchair passengers should be aware of these limitations. For safety reasons, passengers in wheelchairs cannot be carried on ramps in ports where the ship is at anchor. We regret that we cannot provide individual assistance to a tour member for walking, getting on/off tour busses and other transportation vehicles, or other personal needs. A qualified travel companion must accompany travellers who need assistance.
The dress code is relaxed. Light, comfortable clothing
is ideal for during the day, but smart casual clothing
for evenings on board the ship is recommended. You
may wish to bring something a little dressier for the
Welcome and Farewell dinners and any special events,
however there will be no black tie or formal evenings.
We recommend that you pack a variety of light to
medium weight clothing, plus rain-wear in case of cooler
or wet weather. Layers are a good option to cover a
range of temperatures and to suit changing conditions.
Comfortable footwear is imperative, as some excursions
involve walking steps or ramps to embark/disembark.
If your sightseeing includes churches, monasteries,
synagogues or mosques, dress casually and ensure
sufficient body cover (for example cover your shoulders
and wear trousers or a knee-length dress).
Please advise the APT reservation agent at time of booking of any special dietary requirements you may have and we will make every effort to accommodate your request. Please note that not all diets are possible.
Smoking is only allowed on the sun deck of all ships.
The features of your wonderful ship include an elegant restaurant to indulge in delicious meals, a lounge and fully-stocked bar to keep you relaxed and hydrated, a Sun Deck to take in the ever-changing vistas, a fitness centre for those that would like to stay active, and a spa for that soothing massage. With Wi-Fi internet available throughout the ship, it’s easy for you to stay connected with loved ones back home.
