A Different Holiday In Kamchatka Peninsula

Where do you go when you love travelling to remote, rarely visited places that offer the tourist magnificent scenery, wonderful wildlife, interesting geological features, diverse nature and cultural history.  

You ask Craig at The VIP Traveller and this is the wonderful trip he sent us on. 

The Kamchatka Peninsula in far Eastern Russia, on the expedition ship “Silversea Explorer”. 

From Petropavlovsk up the coast of Kamchatcha via the Commander Islands, across the Bering Sea finishing in Nome, Alaska. Expedition cruising is all about experiencing nature, history and culture in remote areas of our wonderful planet.

With only 102 passengers and a crew of 119, we were certainly well looked after and enjoyed the experience greatly under the guidance of Brad and his team of lecturers, guides and zodiac drivers. 

One or two shore excursions via zodiacs each day enables fantastic wildlife experiences, visits to indigenous communities, and rarely visited lakes, rivers and mountains. This provided opportunities for incredible views of spectacle scenery, plants and animals.
