Named after the renowned Russian poetess – Marina Tsvetaeva – she was build in the famous Polish ship-yard Gdynia in 1989 as an ice-strengthened passenger vessel. Two of her sister ships were "Boris Pasternak" and "Anna Akhmatova" (named after two contemporary poets of Marina Tsvetaeva). From the very beginning "Marina Tsvetaeva" was meant for accomplishing passenger voyages across the Arctic seas during the summer navigation. Completely refurbished in early 2005, now she is able to comfortably accommodate 115 passengers for expedition cruising to remote areas of our planet.

A fleet of zodiacs is available for landings in areas to be explored to marvel at local fauna and rare samples of flora. Passenger cabins are spacious and cozy.

Public areas (including the bridge, library, lecture room and bar) are roomy and perfectly fit for a pastime. Sauna and swimming pool with the heated water add to the comfort of the ship.
