Baltic Express - 4 Capitals of the North

Seeing a discount on this cruise, I decided to write for the indecisive and very gullible. I returned from this cruise on August 30th. When I was the instigator of the trip and the instigator for girlfriends, I understood what responsibility I take on myself. We traveled for 2000 UAH. , which is very cheap, and now this tour is on the TOUR 1500 UAH. take it and don't hesitate. Now in more detail: = I read reviews and lose optimism, they are mostly terrible. BUT my motto is always the same, and with this I reassured my friends (they do not have much travel experience) BAD REVIEWS ARE WRITTEN BY COMPETITORS AND GOOD OWN TRAVEL AGENTS. I swear I'm just a tourist. Let me rebut some of the criticism. Yes, there are very small toilets along the way. There are 55 people in the bus (we had one), if everyone spends 2 minutes in the toilet (2 * 55 = 110) - this is almost TWO HOURS. And this is a lot for us if we want to see more. Therefore, we went to the bushes and to the men's toilets as quickly as Elena asked us, and as a result we arrived in Tallinn at 07.12 instead of 10.00, and those tourists who come with PONTA at 14.00. Believe me, for a transit tourist, 3 hours is a lot.. The guides are Russian-speaking everywhere good. All excursions on the tour, including Jurmala, cost us 92 euros. Plus three breakfasts for 10-11 euros. This will be collected from you by the guide. About Elena Prikhodko. I received an information sheet from the tour operator and read that she was very upset with us, and not surprisingly, out of all the reviews about her on the net, there was only one positive, all the rest were very negative. And on the trip, we were very surprised. She is a professional who lives on wheels. He knows a lot and advises, all the advice is good. We listened. AND IF A PERSON HISSELF IS NEGATIVE AND PROVOCATES BY HIS ACTIONS, IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE ARE NERVOUS, THANKS TO GOD, "that there was no lousy sheep in our herd." YES I WANT TO NOTE IF THE TOUR HAS CHANGES, THEN MY REVIEWS WILL BE USEFUL, according to our plan, the FESTIVAL ferry was replaced by ISABELLA. Now more about the hotel in Tallinn. By name, the hotel probably belongs to the ship company TALLINK (my guess is the same name) The hotel is 3 *, but it is 3 * European. Our room is great, only without hair shampoos. The hotel has FREE swimming pool, sauna, WI-FI. In the morning, dry ration breakfast in cardboard boxes (0.5 water with a glass, minimars, an apple, yogurt with a spoon and a large sandwich (lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, ham) We left it for lunch and ate it when we were driving from Helsinki to Turku, because we had breakfast on the ferry for 10 euros, a buffet (eggs, omelettes, sausages, brisket, slightly salted salmon, herring, sprats, potatoes (on all ferries) in the form of fried figured zrazy, liver pates, vegetables, fruits, dry breakfasts, all dairy products, confectionery, In general, you can’t list everything in detail, it takes a lot of time. Transfer to Helsinki 2.30 minutes. One hour you sit in a restaurant, otherwise all the time, because on the ferry you are without cabins, there are many of them "and there is not enough space for everyone, we saw people who were lying on the decks, closer to the exit. It's impossible to describe everything. One more piece of advice, try to sleep from Helsinki to Turku and rest on the ferry, we went to bed at 4.00, moreover, what's at 6. 00 rise and do not regret it, on the ferry the Princess of the Baltic is the best variety show program and then a disco, at the reception there are shelves with free cruise programs and maps of the cities where you arrive, as well as other booklets in Russian, read, take and it will be easier for you. I will definitely take my children with them next year. THANK YOU TO ORGANIZERS AND DRIVERS ANDREY AND ELENA. Yes, we left Riga at 19.00, and in Kyiv we were at 14.00, the guys are professionals.
