Viking Lomonosov travels the waterways between Moscow and St. Petersburg, exploring part of the vast network of rivers, lakes and inland seas that was Russia’s first natural highway. While cruising the Volga, Svir and Neva Rivers you will be charmed by the country’s beauty.

Viking Lomonosov, built to European standards and extensively refurbished in 2002/ 2003, features two restaurants and two bars, three walk-around open air promenade decks, a sun deck, a sauna, a hairdresser, a doctor, and 112 comfortable outside staterooms each equipped with air conditioning.
