    I highly recommend this tour to everyone. The organization was excellent. We chose a hotel in Moscow with clean rooms and friendly staff. The breakfasts were so hearty, they felt more like lunch. The tour bus was comfortable and air-conditioned. The Classic Petersburg tour provided a great overview of the city's history and the country as a whole. Our guide, Lyudmila, was engaging and knowledgeable, making the experience truly enjoyable while ensuring every guest felt taken care of. We arrived by car, and upon check-in, the hotel staff helpfully advised us on where to park for free. Everything was perfect, there was nothing to complain about. Even the weather was on our side. My family and I were absolutely satisfied. Explore our beautiful country, this tour operator is truly reliable.

    The Classic St. Petersburg for 7 Days tour was an incredible experience! When I first booked it, I was quite anxious—I had no idea what to expect or how everything would turn out. But as soon as I arrived at the hotel, I was warmly greeted in the lobby by our guide, Marina. She quickly found my name on the list, handed me the tour itinerary, shared some insights about the city, and even gave me a beautiful pocket-sized map of St. Petersburg. Throughout the entire trip, Marina took great care of every participant. She told fascinating stories about the city, provided historical context for everything we saw, and gave excellent recommendations on where to go and what to do after the scheduled excursions. It was clear how much she loves St. Petersburg and how eager she was to show us as many remarkable and meaningful places as possible. The tour was flawlessly organized, with every aspect of the itinerary carried out in full. And thanks to our guide, we ended up seeing and learning far more about St. Petersburg than we had originally expected. An unforgettable experience.
