Oh
Interesting cruises with a nuance are still on sale — from Spain to South Africa (yes, with Schengen) or from South Africa to the UAE (without visas).
The nuance is this: Costa sells cruises to Russians with a squeak. You need proof of your location outside of Russia — a statement from a foreign bank account is most likely suitable (for reliability, you can send a lease agreement or a residence address) — it is no longer necessary to provide a residence permit.
If this is not a problem for you, then welcome aboard: there are two excellent options for you: from Europe to South Africa for almost free or from South Africa to the UAE for almost free too.
The first option: from South Africa to the UAE in early December from 69,900 rubles per person for 17 (!) nights (this is 4,100 rubles per day)
Book
Here is the route:
Here is the final price for TWO:
+ mandatory tip of 11 euros/day (sorry).
You can throw yourself into South Africa for a cruise by Etihad — even from Moscow, even from St. Petersburg
From St. Petersburg: 21 Nov/Nov 26th
From Moscow: November 21,/26 Nov/Nov 28
plus 5 thousand rubles for a flight from Johannesburg to Cape town any day.
You can return back from the UAE with a Victory for 11,500 rubles any day starting from December 22.
Total: 46,500 rubles for all flights + 69900 for a cruise + 17,000 for tea = 133400 rubles for a month of visa-free travel, during which you ALMOST do not have to think about anything (accommodation in the price, travel too, as well as food and entertainment).
Add only accommodation in South Africa and (optional) overnight stay in the UAE.
Okay, let’s count that too. Here are 3 nights in Johannesburg for 7,200 rubles
Here are 4 nights in Cape Town
Here is one Dubai night for 3,300 rubles
Total: 24,000 rubles for accommodation in South Africa and the UAE (12,000 rubles per person). Plus: 133400 and 12000 and we get 145,000 rubles for everything. All — these are «South Africa + UAE + Oman + Mauritius» without visas.
The second option is for Schengen holders.
There are two inexpensive cruises from Spain to this very Cape Town — just in time for that cruise above.
From Barcelona — from 64900 rubles for 17 nights (3800 per day + tea)
Or shorter, from Tenerife — from 49900 rubles for 13 nights (3800 rubles per day + tea)
We fly to Spain «traditionally» via Yerevan, Istanbul, Baku. For example: Kaluga — Yerevan — Vienna (Venice/Sofia) — Barcelona for 10,000 rubles.
Kaluga — Yerevan November 8 or November 15 (depending on the desire to see or not to see Europe)
Back to something like this:
We will not count. You’re not going to fly anyway.
