CLOTHES AND NECESSARY EQUIPMENT.

The atmosphere aboard the vessel is quite informal. Most tourists choose to wear T-shirts and jeans. Waterproof trousers are necessary for zodiac operations and landings. More detailed information about the things to take along is sent to all passengers with the pre-departure materials.

Do not forget your binoculars to watch wildlife! Please, keep in mind that dramatic volcanoes, spectacular landscapes and diverse wildlife provides excellent opportunities for photography. Marvelous pictures are the best trophies and memories of your voyage! Please, make sure that you've taken all the necessary equipment along!


WILDLIFE.

We always keep an open eye for the Far East wildlife, while sailing or ashore: it may appear from nowhere, and we have to react fast. You are advised timely, as soon as any representative of the fauna is near and can be seen. During both of the cruises there will be numerous mammals' rookeries and bird colonies. Alcids, Siberian and Asian species, has settled in large numbers all over the region. If the luck is with us we'll see the magnificent Steller's Sea Eagle. The list of the wildlife inhabiting these regions will be included in our Far East pre-departure materials.


ACCOMMODATION AND CATERING.

Times when the participants of almost any expedition had to suffer privations are gone. Nowadays the explorers (taking part in our expeditions) do not need to eat dried biscuits and bear hardships - our ship is not "hard" at all. The vessel provides high level accommodation and offers sauna and swimming pool with heated sea water as additional points of relaxation aboard.

Our chefs will treat you to the most refined and exquisite courses of International cuisine. For vegetarians and other diet adherents we can offer special meals. But don't forget to mention about it during your booking procedure.
