Overall, Viking did a good job. Viking Rurik experienced weather related problems that kept us from visiting one of the important sites. Another time, waves were too high to proceed so we were anchored 12 hrs. in Lake Ladoga. We had really rough waves for another 5 hrs until reaching the mouth of Neva River and were taken by hydrofoil into St. Petersburg. The program director did a great job trying to get us to included sites.
The ship and staff were super. The ship was clean and the room was checked daily and cleaned very well. The food was plentyful and very very good. The servers were the best. The visits were well planed and very interesting, and as described. We did not get to see Kishi Island because of bad seas. But Viking did everthing they could to make up for it.
