The landmark is the Mermaid Monument on the Vistula River (General George Smith Patton Boulevard, Warsaw). From the monument, walk down the stairs straight to the river. Then walk 300 meters to the right (south) along the boulevard. Then you will see a large white double-decker barge named Atalanta. Climb up the white gangway straight onto the ship. On the other side of the barge on the first level (first floor) there will be the check-in for two wooden boats. Please wait at the door facing the river. The boat will arrive in 5 minutes before the start of the cruise. The ships depart at full hours and every hour. Please be 20 minutes before the cruise, so the coordinator can check your ticket and tell you the instructions. The person greeting you will be wearing a red shirt that says coordinator.
