MS Volga Dream

After a total make-over, the Volga Dream's maiden voyage was in 2007. There are 56 cabins plus crew quarters. The ship operates continuously from May to October, when the only break for the staff is an occasional afternoon off. In winter it is mothballed. Its first and last cruise of the season is from/to Astrakhan on the Caspian Sea.
