Only during a river walk along the Moskva River you can look at the coastal beauty of the capital in a calm atmosphere for a relatively short time, enjoy fresh river air and relax in the company of friends. Yes, all this can be seen from the shore, if you walk along the embankment, or from the window of the sightseeing bus. But these options for the coverage of space and the speed of movement can not be compared to a trip around Moscow on a pleasure boat.
Today I will tell you how relatively inexpensive to make a walk on the ship, and at the same time I will show the views of Moscow from the river.
Before going on our trip, you need to choose a route, boat, services on board and purchase a ticket. You can, of course, come to any pier and buy a ticket 10 minutes before departure. But this option is not for us :)
We use the services of the site about selling tickets for river walks Rivertickets.ru .
In the photo: yacht "Beauty", the Government of Moscow and the Novoarbatsky bridge.
There are many reasons to choose Rivertickets.ru to purchase a ticket for a river walk.
On the photo: yacht "Primavera" on the background of the Smolenskaya embankment.
At first. The site presents an actual selection of walking routes and motor ships. Even now, when it's generally not the season, the choice is great. About the warm summer days, I do not say, at this time, the options are just a bunch.
In the photo: workers cover the gaps between the granite blocks of the Moskva River embankment. The case takes place opposite CHP No. 12.
Secondly. All the routes are provided with very detailed information: from where will it begin, on what boat, what is waiting for you along the way, how long will it take, whether to feed on board and what, whether there are artists / musicians, warm blankets, etc.
In the photo: Moscow River, MSU building and motor ship "Argo-2".
Thirdly. On the site very often you can find a flight with a discount.
In the photo: the motor ship "Artus" at the pier "Setun".
Fourth. By purchasing a ticket on the Rivertickets.ru website, you are already saving some of the money, because On the quay tickets will always be more expensive.
On the photo: the yacht "Montana" and the Luzhnetsk metro bridge.
And, finally. Looking through the site, you can find very interesting, even exclusive flights of pleasure boats. So, for example, last year I took a walk with the passage of locks № 7 and № 8 of the Moscow channel .
In the photo: the motor ship "Derzhava".
Yes, while I was talking about the Rivertiketts site, our walk has already begun :) We are going to the warmth-bearer "Amsterdam" along the Moskva River from the pier "International Exhibition" to the Kremlin and back. The flight began on Sunday 2 October 2016 at 19:00. The weather was promised a rainy weather, but fortunately the weather forecasters were mistaken this time.
On the photo: Pier "Stadium" Luzhniki ", motor ship-restaurant" Swallow 2 "," Bars "and katrok" Swallow "
Towards a yacht "Capella", and next to the pier there is a pleasure motor ship "Svetoch" built in 2012 at the Moscow shipbuilding and shiprepairing plant.
Oncoming ships today mass! "Organizer" (type "OM", built in 1959).

At all. What can not be changed for pleasure and banquet boat. Here, for example, a former dry-cargo ship built in 1959, and now a pleasure boat "River Palace 2".
It begins to get dark. The National Defense Management Center of the Russian Federation and the Aurora-1 motor ship (Moskvushka).
The military centers are beautifully illuminated.
They even have a landing site, a helipad, hovercraft and a boat.
The motor ship "Valery Bryusov" is all on the same place.
Former confectionery factory "Red October".
The Cathedral of Christ the Savior and the chopping of our ship.
The Great Stone Bridge, Moscow Kremlin.
Again look at the HHC.
Approaching the Kremlin, everyone suddenly suddenly crowded on the bow of the ship. In the meantime, the yacht Ferdinand came out from under the Great Stone Bridge.
Evening Moscow Kremlin. And it's getting darker and darker in the street.
Again the yacht of the flotilla "Radisson Royal Moscow". This time the boat "Butterfly".
According to the plan of our walk we should have dinner. We drank the champagne at the very beginning of the trip, ate a cheese plate, and now it's time for hot. Kremlin! The most interesting! But our name is :)
I manage to take a photo of the ship "River Lounge-2" in the wiring against the backdrop of the Kremlin and go down to the lower deck.
And here is the hot one: a shish kebab with sauce and a flat cake, a salad "Danube". Then there was tea with profiteroles.
Turned, went in the opposite direction.
We go for the warmth-mover "Maria". Our "Amsterdam" is a similar project.

Even these can be found on the Moscow River. Yacht «Sealine T52». I wildly like yachts that have flybridge. "Sealine T52" is just that.
"Moskvushka" "Flagship" is the Great Stone Bridge.
All. It was quite dark. Without lighting the buildings, we would not have seen anything on the river here. The building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Andreevsky railway bridge across the Moscow River (behind it, of course, is the Novoandreevsky Automobile Bridge).
Coming closer to these bridges, we meet the warmth-bearer "Rio".
Night building of Moscow State University.
Night building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences :)
Yes, now it's all night now! But with this photo I was tortured: I still could not understand why all the towers are vertical, and the one, the left, tower "OKO" is tilted to the left. It's useful to look for info. No, they do not write anywhere that it is tilted and falls. Apparently such an effect is created precisely from this angle due to the architectural features of the tower. It will be necessary to see it in detail in the daytime.
Here the slope of the tower "OKO" is not so evident. The river situation distracts, and the focus in general is not on "Moscow City" :)
We go further. A pair of night "radishes".
The Primavera yacht.
"Beauty" yacht. In the evening, at the beginning of our walk, we have already seen them. And now we met at night.
The bridge of Bogdan Khmelnitsky.
Kiev railway station.
The Borodino Bridge. Behind him is the Smolensk metro bridge.
We are approaching the House of Government of the Russian Federation.
Here he is. Night!
We are also noticeable on the river. We are with lights :) On the port side we have a red light, on the right - green, top - top white.
Hotel «Radisson Royal».
Night building of the Government of Moscow.
World Trade Center. We finish the tea, finish the profiteroles, prepare for the landing.
The walk is over. Our motor ship "Amsterdam" at the pier "International Exhibition".
Go for river walks - it's very interesting and exciting. And where you choose the route and buy a ticket, you now know for sure.
