Reviews

Long-term practice of cruises has created an excellent reputation of LLC "Vodohod". But recently the discontent of passengers has become noticeably higher. In particular, on forums and the official website of the company you can read unflattering comments about the service provided by the motor ship "Mikhail Frunze". The reviews point to a sharp rise in prices and a decline in the quality of service. Among the complaints:

• Badly adjusted system of ventilation and air-conditioning of cabins.
• Parking is often carried out on dirty beaches, where debris and broken glass. According to tourists, such stops are not made for the recreation of passengers ashore, but for the sake of visiting certain attractions.
• To some travelers the steamboat staff seemed to be not very friendly. In particular, sailors who refused to pick up things on the ship, and bartenders, constantly busy and delaying maintenance.

However, there are still positive moments in the reviews. Passengers remember with gratitude the medical staff, a qualitative and conscientious approach to their work. The plus belongs to the kitchen on board the ship, various, tasty, useful. Complementing all this splendor is the cleanliness on the ship, its calm course, comfortable equipment of the premises, fresh air and picturesque Russian landscapes.
