Greek Isles

Here, you'll find the concept of philoxenia—the art of Greek hospitality—lingering in the soul long after departure.

Radisson Boat Tour
Moscow River Cruise
![yachts tours yachts tours](https://www.moscowprivatetours.com/static/images/tours/river01.webp)
The Radisson boat tour is a pleasant way to see the main attractions of Moscow from the board of a luxurious Radisson yacht. Our guide will take you to the boat from your hotel and will compliment your cruise with breathtaking stories.
Metro tour - 1 hour 30 min Show information
Tickets included Extend your tour by add the Metro Tour option and visit the most beautiful Moscow metro stations (5-6 stations).
Tour Itinerary
Hotel pick-up.
Our guide will come to your hotel (lobby area) or any other indicated address to begin the tour from there. If you stay outside of the city area, we will offer you alternative meeting options. We will use the metro (tickets are included) to take you to the cruise starting point.
The world famous park is also the most popular among Moscow citizens and city guests. Gorky Park was built in the Soviet times, but now it experiences its second youth as it has been recently renovated. A number of trendy restaurants, street food kiosks, sport playgrounds found their place in this cozy park. And this is actually the place where we embark and disembark.
Radisson Yacht
Radisson Yachts are modern, safe, comfortable and luxurious. There is a saloon with panoramic windows but also an open deck. You can order food and drinks in their onboard restaurant, if you wish. The yachts operate 365 days a year, even when the Moskva river gets frozen (yes, those yachts are icebreakers!).
Christ the Savior Cathedral
The main Russian Cathedral is situated on the bank of the Moskva River. With an overall height of 105 metres (344 ft), it is the tallest Orthodox church in the world. The Cathedral looks very nice from water: you may see the reflection of the golden domes on the water.
Monument of Peter the Great and the Red October district
Dominating the landscape, this controversial monument of Peter the Great stays right in the river and reminds us of the bright times of the Russian Navy. The “Red October” used to be the territory of the leading Soviet chocolate factory (which has moved now). It is a popular urban area now, that hosts clubs, restaurants and galleries.
The Kremlin
The legendary fortress is of course the well-known symbol of Moscow and Russia. The active residence of Russian President and the birthplace of the Russian Statehood. Should we mention that the whole complex is protected by UNESCO World Heritage organization. You will have a great opportunity to take amazing pictures from the open deck of the yacht.
St Basil Cathedral
This orthodox cathedral has the world-wide fame and is one of the most popular sights in Russia. The vivid colors of its domes together with the unique decoration style will impress your imagination. Our guide will tell you the most interesting stories and facts about this remarkable building.
Stalin’s Skyscraper
Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Building is one of the so called “Seven Sisters” , which are also called Stalin’s skyscrapers. They all were built during the post war years, all projects are unique although they have similar architectural style.
Back to Gorky Park and then to your hotel
This is a round trip. The yacht will return to the starting point in Gorky Park. And our guide will take you back to your hotel.

White shark tourism is taking off in Cape Cod, where the ocean's largest predator fish have made a remarkable comeback.
Kris Roszack owns Down Cape Charters in Harwich, near the elbow of Cape Cod. He says white sharks have become more predictable here than the weather.
Roszack is concerned about the low clouds this morning. It's illegal here to lure sharks to a boat. So these tours rely on spotter planes to find them.
"I mean, success rate is probably in the upper 90% if the conditions are right,” Roszack said.
“We do not want to just take people for expensive boat rides.
”A few decades ago, white shark numbers reached an all-time low in Cape Cod. Experts blame mainly the decimation of seals, their main food source. Fishermen considered seals pests, and the state paid bounties for culling seals. But since the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, seals have come back, at first slowly, then exponentially. Now they're everywhere, Captain Nick Franco says. Franco leads shark tours in the area.
We take a ride with one tour boat to see what happens.

20 years since Dave Matthews Band's Chicago River tour bus 'dumping incident'
![yachts tours WLS logo](https://cdn.abcotvs.net/abcotv/static/common/origins/origin-wls.png)
CHICAGO (WLS) -- August 8, 2004, will always be remembered as the day the "Dave Matthews Band Chicago River incident" happened in the city.
It's an incident that's become a part of Chicago lore.
ABC7 Chicago is now streaming 24/7. Click here to watch
Thursday marked 20 years since "poopgate," as the internet has dubbed it over the past two decades.
The disgusting event happened as the tour bus drove over the Kinzie Street Bridge in Downtown Chicago.
The bus dumped 800 pounds of bathroom waste into the river as unsuspecting passengers on an Architecture Foundation tour boat passed under the bridge.
ABC7 talked to a woman, Lynn LaPlante, who was driving behind the bus that day and drove right through the mess.
"The smell, I mean there was just no mistaking the smell," LaPlante said. "It was a lovely day, just driving windows open, perfect August day in Chicago, and we drove basically into just a wall of smell."
To commemorate the infamous brown shower, a memorial plaque was placed on the bridge to never forget the incident. Benny the Bull and other Chicago sports mascots visited the site Thursday to pay their respects, using toilet paper to wipe away tears.

- I recently visited Chincoteague Island in Virginia and went on a boat tour.
- I paid $50 for a two-hour tour and saw a lot of wild ponies and other wildlife.
- Though it rained during the tour, it was a great experience that I'd definitely do again.
![yachts tours Insider Today](https://www.businessinsider.com/public/assets/BI/US/logos/newsletters/insider-today-logo.png)
I love exploring places that fulfill my desire to get away without depleting my bank account. Eager to enjoy the outdoors after a chilly spring, I decided to book a trip to Virginia's only resort island, Chincoteague Island.
The 7-mile island on the Eastern Shore of Virginia is best known for its beaches, unspoiled nature, and proximity to herds of wild ponies on Assateague Island. The area's annual pony swim from Assateague to Chincoteague islands attracts about 50,000 visitors each year.
Though we didn't head to Chincoteague Island for the pony swim, I still wanted to see some of the estimated 150 ponies on the nearby Assateague Island via a boat tour. So, I booked a $50 boat ride to see the area's wildlife and the ponies.
Here's what my experience taking a boat tour around Chincoteague Island was like.
I registered for a boat tour around Chincoteague Island for $50 a person.
Research led me to Captain Dan's Around the Island Tours, which offers two-hour public and private cruises around Chincoteague Island.
Reviews raved about pony sightings in the mornings, so I booked a 10 a.m. public tour for my husband and me for $50 each. Though the ponies are located on Assateague Island, passengers can see them from the boat circling Chincoteague Island.
We drifted around Chincoteague Island through Chincoteague Bay and close to the shore of Assateague Island near the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge.
We arrived at the docks in Chincoteague before our departure time.
We arrived at the docks on Chincoteague Island 10 minutes before our boarding time, per the booking instructions.
One of the company's captains, Doug, was aboard a pontoon boat idling at the dock, chatting with a couple who'd already arrived. An ominous forecast threatened our trip the night before, but the morning gave way to an overcast sky that the captain deemed safe.
The earlier forecast must've deterred other guests because we scored a semiprivate tour with a total party of six and enough seating for 10, with plenty of room to get comfortable.
Our small group boarded the boat and cruised down the Chincoteague Channel.
Doug welcomed us aboard the boat, briefly stopping each passenger to confirm their registration.
After a rundown of the tour, during which he described the route we'd be taking and when we could expect to see the ponies, he steered the boat into the Chincoteague Channel.
The captain told us about the area's local history and wildlife as we drifted along.
Six minutes in, a passenger pointed out a bald eagle perched on a nearby dock. We motored past osprey, dolphins, and friendly fishermen as the captain recounted how recent storms have affected the local landmarks.
We saw the wild ponies just a few minutes into our boat ride.
Doug slowed down as we neared part of the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge located on Assateague Island. He explained that two herds of ponies on Assateague Island travel in bands — smaller groups typically led by a stallion.
A band of 13 horses grazing along the bank came into view as if on cue. The captain idled the boat so passengers could take pictures and ask questions.
We even saw a second band of horses.
We then drifted toward Assateague Channel, the site of the famed pony swim. Doug explained that the ponies are paraded down Chincoteague's main street after crossing this body of water.
Then, the foals are auctioned off to control the population's size. The ponies take less than 30 minutes to cross the channel, yet the event draws tens of thousands of spectators annually.
We soon rounded the bend where the historic red-and-white Assateague Lighthouse appeared above towering pines. The lighthouse has warned passing ships of the area's shallow waters since its reconstruction in 1867. As captivating as it was, the two dozen horses in the marshy foreground stole my attention.
I felt extremely lucky to see the area's beautiful animals during the boat ride.
Doug steered us near the bank and said he couldn't remember the last time he'd seen the horses in front of the lighthouse, which made me feel lucky to be there that day.
We snapped countless photos, then continued past Chincoteague Island's northern tip.
Dark clouds rolled in while we were on the boat — and then it started raining.
Dark storm clouds quickly rolled in. The captain lifted the seats and pulled out raincoats for everyone. It soon began to pour.
I'm usually averse to rain, but I couldn't help but smile. We'd seen more than I expected — not only two groups of ponies but a part of Virginia filled with vast marshlands and a coastal village spirit that felt worlds away from the urban scramble of home.
Chincoteague Island is a dreamy destination, and I'd go back in a heartbeat.
My husband and I began talking about our next trip to Chincoteague Island before we'd even left.
Spending the morning in the presence of this charming, unspoiled area while seeing Assateague Island's iconic wild horses felt like a premium opportunity that I'd pay $50 to experience again.
These islands are now some of my favorite places — and I can't wait to return.

The new 'Swift Boat?' Tim Walz's military service targeted by Trump campaign
WASHINGTON – Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz's Army National Guard service has become an immediate target of Republican Donald Trump's campaign, with running-mate JD Vance, also a veteran, attacking Walz's retirement from the military prior to his battalion's deployment to Iraq.
Walz, the governor of Minnesota and a former congressman, joined the National Guard out of high school at 17 years old on April 8, 1981 and served until May 16, 2005. Walz has said he retired from the guard to run for Congress, which he did successfully in 2006.
The alert order for Walz's unit to mobilize for Iraq was received on July 14, 2005 − almost two months after Walz had retired − and the unit mobilized Oct. 12, 2005, according to the Minnesota National Guard. But according to past press statements, Walz appeared to know as early as March 2005 that his battalion could be sent to Iraq.
More: Why Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz over Josh Shapiro as her running mate
Vance raised Walz's departure from the military Wednesday while campaigning in Shelby Township, Michigan, comparing their military records. Vance joined the Marines in 2003 and served as a combat correspondent – or military journalist – until 2007. Vance was deployed to Iraq for six months in late 2005 to serve in public affairs.
"When the United States of America asked me to go to Iraq to serve my country, I did. I did what they asked me to do, and I did it honorably, and I'm very proud of that service," Vance said. "When Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, you know what he did? He dropped out of the army and allowed his unit to go without him."
Vance added: "What bothers me about Tim Walz is the 'stolen valor' garbage. Do not to pretend to be something you're not."
Vice President Kamala named Walz her running-mate Tuesday , with the campaign highlighting his Midwest, working-class biography and military service.
Vance's attacks have drawn comparisons to the unsubstantiated "Swift Boat" claims against Democrat John Kerry in the 2004 presidential race against President George W. Bush. The group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth challenged Kerry's decorated Vietnam War record. Chris LaCivita, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign, led the Swift Boat campaign attacking Kerry in 2004 .
Vance seized on past remarks from Walz in support of gun control shared Tuesday on social media by the Harris campaign in which the governor said, "We can make sure that those weapons of war that I carried in war is the only place where those weapons are at."
"I wonder, Tim Walz, when were you ever in war?" Vance said Wednesday. "What was this weapon that you carried into war given that you abandoned your unit right before they went to Iraq?"
In a statement to USA TODAY, Harris campaign spokesman Ammar Moussa reiterated that Walz retired in 2005 to run for Congress, where he later chaired the House Veterans Affairs Committee.

More: Tim Walz debuts as Kamala Harris' VP pick at raucous Philly rally: Recap
In response to Vance saying Walz never carried a weapon into war, Moussa said: "In his 24 years of service, the Governor carried, fired and trained others to use weapons of war innumerable times. Governor Walz would never insult or undermine any American's service to this country − in fact, he thanks Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It's the American way."
A review of Walz's old website from his run for Congress − still preserved online − shows a March 20, 2005, news release from the Walz congressional campaign stating that the National Guard public affairs office on March 17 of that year announced a "possible partial mobilization of roughly 2,000 troops from the Minnesota National Guard."
According to the archived news release, the public affairs office notified that "all or a portion of Walz's battalion could be mobilized to serve in Iraq within the next two years."
Walz is quoted in the release saying in March 2005, "I don't want to speculate on what shape my campaign will take if I am deployed, but I have no plans to drop out of the race." The final line in the news release reads, "If called to duty, Walz would leave behind his wife Gwen and four year old daughter, Hope."
Moussa said the Harris campaign had no further comment.
Former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois − a Trump critic, Harris supporter and veteran of the Air National Guard − pushed back at Vance's criticism.
"JD served honorably, but he wasn’t kicking down doors. He was in public affairs. Which again, is fine and honorable. Tim, after he was eligible for retirement, retired. People do that," Kinzinger wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "If it was a real problem he would have been 'stop lossed' and prevented from retiring."
A stop-loss refers to the involuntary extension of an individual's activity duty service enforced by the Defense Department.
"If JD Vance is going to go after Tim Walz, I would suggest he take from his own military training, his own military experience," said Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, a Harris surrogate and also a military veteran. "Do not start with trying to attack that someone raised their hand to serve this country."
Walz rose to the rank of command sergeant major, but because he did not complete additional course work at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy before leaving the National Guard in 2005, he retired as a master sergeant.
"You get to sergeant major because you have a track record of taking care of your people," Moore said in an interview on MSNBC .
Walz mobilized with the Minnesota National Guard on Aug. 3, 2003, in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, whose primary mission was the Afghanistan War but also had counterterrorism roles in other regions.
His 1st Battalion of the 125th Field Artillery supported security missions in Europe and Turkey, according to a statement from Lt. Col. Kristen Auge, a spokesperson for the Minnesota National Guard.
Walz was stationed at Vicenza, Italy, during his deployment and returned to Minnesota in April 2004, Auge said.Walz started his service in the Nebraska National Guard and finished at the Minnesota National Guard.

Walz's Republican opponents in Minnesota have criticized his exit from the military in the past, including during his 2018 and 2022 runs for governor.
In an open letter in 2018 , Minnesota National Guard veteran Thomas Behrends accused Walz of pushing "embellished and selectively omitted facts" about his military service. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported that Behrends was passed over for the promotion to command sergeant major that went to Walz and described him as a "longtime critic of the governor."
Retired Maj. Gen. Randy Manner, who held top positions with the National Guard Bureau and said he does not know Walz but plans to vote for the Harris-Walz ticket, called the controversy manufactured. Walz would have filed his papers for retirement long before his unit received official notice that they were being mobilized for deployment. The retirement papers Walz filed take five to nine months to process, Manner said.
“The idea that a man who served his country honorably for 24 years somehow ‘cut and run’ because he retired from the Guard in his 40s to pursue his next phase of life is an insult to him and everyone else who also served their nation so honorably," Manner said.
Walz acknowledged he never saw combat in a 2018 interview with Minnesota Public Radio .
"I know that there are certainly folks that did far more than I did. I know that," Walz said at the time. "I willingly say that I got far more out of the military than they got out of me, from the GI Bill to leadership opportunities to everything else."
