The ship creates a chamber atmosphere - the feeling that you are in the circle of good old friends. The route itself is unique and really worth seeing. I remember the night stops, since the ship did not sail at night and was removed from anchor only at 4 am. Many tourists, not wanting to miss this moment, sacrificed sleep and went out with cameras on the decks to capture the beauty around us. It was unforgettable and so romantic!”, - says Elizaveta Knyazeva, a regular tourist of“Constellation”, from Moscow.
