Moscow – Cheboksary – Yoshkar-Ola – Nizhny Novgorod – Moscow
Embark on a three-day journey through the cities along the Volga River, each with its own unique character. Cheboksary will greet you with provincial charm, national cuisine, and picturesque views of the Volga. Yoshkar-Ola will surprise you with a bold mix of architectural eras, from half-timbered facades to a young Kremlin, and the distinctive culture of the Mari people. Nizhny Novgorod, celebrating its 800th anniversary, offers panoramas of the confluence of the Oka and Volga rivers, merchant streets, and a legendary Kremlin. The train transforms into a cozy hotel on wheels: during the day, you explore on excursions, and at night, you relax in comfortable carriages.
Departure from Yaroslavl Station in the evening – three days of discoveries along the great river lie ahead. Get comfortable: the night journey will fly by.
The capital of Chuvashia stretches along the right bank of the Volga, captivating with its warm provincial charm, green streets, and picturesque bay. Here, you'll find the monument to the Mother-Protector, a rich history, and national dishes such as khuplu and kakaik-shurpi.
The only city in Russia starting with the letter 'Y', Yoshkar-Ola captivates with its bold architectural mix: baroque palaces and half-timbered facades coexist with Soviet-era buildings, and the Bruges-like embankment leads straight to the country's youngest Kremlin. The culture of the Mari people permeates everything here, from gastronomy to street sculptures.
One of the oldest cities in Russia, Nizhny Novgorod captivates with its contrasts: merchant streets and modern skyscrapers, graffiti and universities, and most importantly, breathtaking panoramas of the confluence of the Oka and Volga rivers at the foot of Dyatlovye Gory. In 2021, Nizhny Novgorod celebrated its 800th anniversary with great fanfare.
The train returns to Yaroslavl Station late in the evening, with a багаж of impressions from three Volga cities and memories to last a lifetime.
