Eurorivers.com and Russiana River Cruises area trading names
of Russian Gateway (UK) Ltd.
Here is a short history of our company :
Russian Gateway (UK) Ltd was founded in 1999 with the specific
aim of filling a large gap in the UK travel market for a
Russian travel operator with a passion for customer service.
Due to our unique product and service we are now eating well
in to the market share of the big stuffy state run travel
organisations and are proud to say we have a large number or
repeat clients. We adhere to all UK and EC regulations
regarding the sale of air and package travel in that your
money is kept safe until after you return from your holiday.
Russiana River Cruises was set up to provide value for money
luxury cruises between Moscow and St.Petersburg, mostly to the
UK market but over the past four years, increasingly to the
USA, Australia and South Africa.
In 2005, a decision was made to expand our operations in to
Europe as well, and Eurorivers.com was founded . Now, we have
access to luxury river cruises all over Europe.
In 2004 we attained some new landmarks for example by
chartering a full ship for 215 American passengers on a
religious mission ! We designed the entire programme in close
conjunction with the group's management and the cruise was a
huge success. We followed this up in 2005 with another group
charter in May, once again for a religious mission. Both
cruises were unrivalled successes due to our diligent and
precise planning. Also in 2005 we have organised a large group
of members of the International Food and Wine Society of the
United Kingdom.
We have been recommended by The Observer 'Ask the Experts'
section, the Mail on Sunday's highly respected travel section
on several occasions, The Guardian and the Scottish Sunday
Herald. In 2005 we have featured in the Sunday Express
Magazine's "Follow in the Footsteps of James Bond" article .
We also feature in the latest batch of Lonely Planet Guides to
Russia. We don't have a PR department bombarding newspapers
with offers etc - we are written about by these publications
as we have been recommended. Our Directors have given local
and national BBC Radio interviews We are also regularly
contacted by major publications like the Economist (see August
6th 2005 issue) for our opinions.
In September 2002 we were responsible for sending the entire
Liverpool Football Club to Moscow to play against Spartak
Moscow in the European Champions League.
We are proud sponsors of The Promise, a UK charity set up to
pioneer new ways to support children with special needs within
the orphanage system in Russia (see
