General Tours cruise in Russia

[talyanka]

I would like to hear from somebody who cruised on the ship MS Volga Dream from Moscow to St. Petersberg. They offer a better ship and food and itinerary is slightly different from most similar cruises. It's only 8 days and they visit island Valaam in Ladoga and Petrozavodsk in Karelia. It looks that this ship is quite new and I couldn't find any reviews about this cruise.

We are also booked on a Russian river cruise with General Tours. Our cruise leaves St. Petersburg in late August 2008 and ends in Moscow.

I would like to have any information on this cruise, like to hear from those who have traveled with General Tours and especially anyone who has been on the Klonstadt. How is the food? Do the men need to wear a coat for dinner? What was your overall experience? I would sincerely appreciate any information. Thank you.
