3. Planning a Car Cruise

Planning a car cruise can be a lot of fun, but it also takes some time and effort. Here are a few tips to help you get started:

1. Choose a destination. The first step is to choose a destination for your car cruise. This could be anywhere in the world, but you’ll want to make sure that it’s a place that you’re all interested in visiting. If you’re not sure where to start, you can check out online travel guides or ask friends and family for recommendations. 2. Set a budget. Once you’ve chosen a destination, you’ll need to set a budget for your car cruise. This will help you to stay on track and avoid any unexpected expenses. Be sure to factor in the cost of gas, food, lodging, and activities. 3. Choose a route. The next step is to choose a route for your car cruise. You can either plan your own route or use a pre-planned route. If you’re planning your own route, you’ll need to consider the length of your trip, the type of roads you’ll be driving on, and the places you want to visit. 4. Book your accommodations. Once you’ve chosen a route, you’ll need to book your accommodations. This is especially important if you’re planning on visiting popular destinations during peak season. Be sure to book your accommodations well in advance to avoid disappointment. 5. Pack your bags. The final step is to pack your bags for your car cruise. Be sure to pack everything you’ll need for your trip, including clothes, toiletries, and any other essential items. You may also want to pack a few snacks and drinks for the road.

Here are a few additional tips for planning a successful car cruise:

  • Do your research. Before you set out on your car cruise, be sure to do your research. This will help you to avoid any surprises and make the most of your trip.
  • Be flexible. Things don’t always go according to plan, so it’s important to be flexible when planning your car cruise. If you need to make changes to your itinerary, don’t be afraid to do so.
  • Have fun! The most important thing is to have fun on your car cruise. Enjoy the scenery, the company of your fellow travelers, and the experience of seeing new places.

4. Car Cruise Etiquette

Car cruises can be a lot of fun, but it’s important to remember that you’re sharing the road with other drivers. Here are a few tips for car cruise etiquette:

  • Be courteous to other drivers. Let other drivers merge in front of you, and don’t tailgate.
  • Obey the rules of the road. This includes speed limits, stop signs, and traffic signals.
  • Be aware of your surroundings. Keep an eye out for other cars, pedestrians, and cyclists.
  • Don’t be a nuisance. Don’t play loud music or honk your horn excessively.
  • Be respectful of other people’s property. Don’t litter or vandalize anything.
  • Have fun! Car cruises are a great way to see new places and meet new people. Enjoy the experience!

Here are a few additional tips for car cruise etiquette:

  • If you’re driving, don’t drink alcohol. This is a major safety hazard and could put everyone in your car at risk.
  • If you’re a passenger, don’t distract the driver. This includes talking on your phone, texting, or eating.
  • Be aware of the weather conditions. If the weather is bad, you may need to slow down or take a different route.
  • Be prepared for emergencies. Make sure you have a first aid kit, flares, and a charged cell phone in your car.

Vladivostok cruise port

Region Asia

Local Time 2024-09-29 15:43

Vladivostok is a port city located in Russia (northeastern Asia), and on Golden Horn Bay (Sea of Japan). The city covers a total area of approx 331 km2 (128 mi2) and has population around 0,6 million.

The port city is the terminus of Russia's largest Pacific railway system (Trans-Siberian Railroad) and also the main naval base of Russia's Pacific fleet. The harbor is being kept open by icebreakers during winter months and serves as base for whaling and fishing vessels. Far Eastern State University is also here. The city is a major center of scientific research.

After the port city is named the 2015-built icebreaker Vladivostok .

The town was founded in 1860 as a military outpost and grew rapidly after 1903 when the Trans-Siberian railway was completed. During 1918-1922, Vladivostok was occupied by Japanese and Allied forces.

Port Vladivostok is ice-free the whole year-round. In 2002, the port had a foreign shipping trade turnover worth USD 275 million. In 2015, a special economic zone was established within the free port.

The city's main industries/employers are the Russian naval base, cargo shipping, commercial fishing. Fishing accounts for about 4/5 of the commercial production. A major source of revenue is the Japanese cars import.

In 2012, the city hosted the 24th Summit of APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) forum on Russky Island. In preparation for the event, the city's infrastructure was improved and two giant cable-stayed bridges were built - Zolotoy Rog Bridge (over Golden Horn Bay, city center) and Russky Bridge (connecting with Russky Island).

The 4-lane Russky Bridge (across Eastern Bosphorus strait) is the world's longest cable-stayed bridge ever constructed -(length 3,1 km / 10,200 ft). Its longest span is 1,1 km (3622 ft). The bridge's clearance above is 70 m (230 ft). The construction cost around USD 1,1 billion.

In August 2016, the Chinese ship Chinese Taishan (former Costa Voyager) made a maiden port call. Liner's operator (Bohai Cruises) soon announced the company's decision to include Vladivostok in its regularly scheduled roundtrip itineraries.

On July 31, 2017, the Peace Boat-chartered cruise ship Ocean Dream made a maiden port call in Vladivostok, with around 1200 tourists from Japan and South Korea. The voyage departed Port Kobe (Japan) on July 27th and visited Yeosu (Korea) , Vladivostok, Hakodate (Japan) , Sakaiminato-Matsue (Japan) and Busan (Korea) .

In 2017, cruise ships managed by Costa Asia ( Carnival Corporation 's subsidiary) visited Port Vladivostok 6 times. The first vessel ( Costa Victoria - max capacity 2314 passengers) docked here in May 2016. In 2017, the cruise port handled 13 ship calls. In 2016, their number was 6.

In 2018, the area near the cruise berth was dredged to allow docking of bigger vessels. On February 26 was opened port's season 2018 with Amadea ( Phoenix Reisen ) carrying over 500 passengers. Among 2018's highlights were the maiden calls by the large liners MSC Splendida (3900 pax), Costa Serena (3600 pax) and Costa Fortuna (3250 pax). On May 12, 2018, Costa Serena became the ever-largest cruise ship docking in Vladivostok. The liner carried over 3000 passengers and crew. It arrived from South Korea (roundtrip Busan itinerary) being chartered by Lotte Tours. Tourists were greeted with a live performance by Far Eastern State Technical Fisheries University students (drummers, singers, dancers). The seaport and Vladivostok tour operators arranged a total of 79 buses each with a Korean-speaking tour guide.

In 2019 (March through October) were booked for berthing a total of 16 ships, among which the RCI-Royal Caribbean 's Quantum and Spectrum . Other large-sized liners were Costa Serena (5 times), Costa neoRomantica (3 times), Diamond Princess , Holland America 's Maasdam and Westerdam , Ocean Dream .

Season 2019 started on March 20 with MS Albatros (Phoenix Reisen), with estimated nearly 30,000 cruise passengers (plus ~70,000 ferry passengers) to be handled at Vladivostok Sea Terminal. In 2019, Vladivostok also restarted its homeport operations with locals and tourists able to book cruises leaving from Vladivostok (mainly to ports in Korea and Japan) and fly-cruise deals (via air/sea programs). There are plans for establishing a local (Russian) cruise line to operate itineraries to other Russian Far East destinations.

On Sept 9, 2019, Spectrum OTS became the ever-largest passenger ship to visit a Russian Federation port. The vessel docked in Vladivostok and was boarded by 200+ Russian VIP guests. Next is listed the 8-day "Russia and Japan Cruise" itinerary roundtrip from China.

Via Vladivostok, the Russian cargo shipping company FESCO serves three express routes connecting Russia with South Korea, China and Japan - Busan to Moscow (15-days transit launched June 2018), Shanghai to Moscow (20-days transit launched January 2017) and Toyama to Moscow (15-days transit launched April 2018). The new services allow delivery time reduction achieved by implementing new pass-through technology (port-railway). Busan to Vladivostok transit time is 2 days.

In January 2021, FESCO for the first time exported containerized grain delivered from Khabarovsk. The TEU-containers were shipped to China's Qingdao and Chiwan ports. FESCO's Russia-China service is 2-week (transit time 14 days). FESCO started bulk shipping of gran (from Krasnoyarsk) to China in 2018 with the new Siberia-to-Far East (Kamchatka and Magadan) service via FESCO-owned trains.

In December 2021, FESCO acquired JSC Port Gaydamak (FEMSTA containership terminal) which was planned for modernization and expansion in 2024. The facility is used mainly for transshipment (400,000+ tons of grain annually) and general cargoes. Also in December was inaugurated the "FESCO West Gate Bridge" (2-4-times a month intermodal containership service on the route Vladivostok- Kaliningrad/Baltiysk ) linking the Asia-Pacific countries with Europe. With an estimated transit time of 36 days, the Vladivostok-Kaliningrad service is nearly 1,5 times faster than the Suez Canal alternative.

Vladivostok cruise terminal

Cruise ships dock at Vladivostok Sea Terminal where their passengers are welcomed with a ceremony that includes live performances of traditional Russian dances, folklore songs and drummers. The event is organized by the company Vladivostok Sea Terminal, LLC.

To all passengers are given free city maps and tour guides, provided by Primorsky Region's Tourist Information Center. Traditionally, an outdoor market with Russian souvenirs is also organized for the disembarking tourists.

Bora Bora Beach with Clear Turquoise Waters and a Variety Cruises Yacht

CRUISES IN TAHITI AND FRENCH POLYNESIA

Bora Bora, Taha’a, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea – islands sculpted by sky-piercing, moss-green peaks and lined with vivid turquoise lagoons. Island hopping allows you to see every landscape, from geometric ridges strung with waterfalls on the high islands to flat, desert-like atolls where lagoons far outsize the landmass. There are many sides to The Islands of Tahiti. Yet they are all connected by Mana. Mana is a life force and spirit that surrounds us. You can see it. Touch it. Taste it. Feel it. And from the moment you arrive, you will understand why locals say their islands are Embraced by Mana.
