MS Rakhmaninov “ ” • 208 passengers 4**** MS "Rakhmaninov" is a sheer elegance. The ship is

named after famous composer. Her thorough

refurbishment of winter 2013-14 made her one of the

best ships of our fleet. A team of skilled designers and

engineers turned her interior into a masterpiece, and

now it arouses similar emotions that music by

composer Sergey Rakhmaninov does. Ship is of project

302, she was built in 1991. Outside promenade

walkways, spacious outer decks with cozy sitting areas

– all these together with conveniently arranged

internal premises make her really a great choice for

Russian river cruising. Crew: 90.
