Day 2 - Kaliningrad and Marzipan
10:00 Sightseeing tour of Kaliningrad.
Route: Kaliningrad.
Kaliningrad is a special city. Architecturally, eventfully, geographically, this city is not at all like other cities in Russia. You can see the unique preserved Koenigsberg and modern European Kaliningrad during our trip.
Today in our city, a walk from one central point to another can take about two hours, but during this walk it will be very difficult to see the main sights.
Thanks to our tour, which is more than 20 km long, in just three hours you can see the preserved areas of private villas (19th century), city gates (18th-20th centuries), pre-war and modern squares and parks, ravelins, bastions and towers (18th-19th centuries), the famous Konigsberg bridges, unique churches and the main symbol of the city — The cathedral.
This format of exploring Kaliningrad-Konigsberg will significantly save your time, allowing you to see and visit other amazing places on the map of the unique exclave area.
During the tour, you will visit the Konigsberg Marzipan shop-museum, where you can learn the history of such a delicacy as marzipan, see interesting confectionery exhibits and even taste this wonderful delicacy!
14:00 The end of the tour.

Day 4 - Svetlogorsk and Zelenogradsk
09:00 "Resorts of East Prussia".
Route: Svetlogorsk — Zelenogradsk.
Zelenogradsk and Svetlogorsk — Kranz and Rauschen are the most famous and popular resorts in both East Prussia and the Kaliningrad region. And each of them has something to be proud of.
Kranz is the first state—owned resort in East Prussia on the Baltic Sea coast, opened in 1816, the city that Kaliningrad residents love the most.
There are wide beaches, a spacious promenade, comfortable streets for walking leading to the water tower.
The tower has been carefully restored, and today it houses the Murarium Cat Museum, and from the observation deck, which you will visit, there is a view of Zelenogradsk and the Baltic Sea.
Svetlogorsk captivates at once — everything seems to be created for leisurely walks and admiring the beautiful — like toy villas of the early 20th century, winding paths running down to the sea, the steepness of the coastal slope, urban sculpture, and all this framed by a magnificent green outfit.
17:00 The end of the tour.

Route: village Amber.
The Kaliningrad Region is a unique region, which contains about 90% of the world's amber reserves. And in the village of Yantarny there is the only quarry in the world in which amber is extracted industrially.
We will visit the observation deck of the quarry and see with our own eyes where and how the sunstone is mined, as well as feel like real prospectors and in a mini-quarry we will get some yantariks for ourselves, as well as a "Dino Park".
In the "Amber Lagoon" we will get into the very heart of jewelry production, where craftsmen will talk about the intricacies of working with a sunstone, teach you how to distinguish fake amber from the original and demonstrate a wide range of jewelry made of natural Baltic amber.
A pleasant end to the tour will be a walk along the wide beach of the village of Yantarny, which has been awarded the international Blue Flag award and meets the high requirements of safety, ecology and tourist service.
