Itinerary

  • Day 1 - Arrival in Saint Petersburg. Transfer to Peterhof, sightseeing tours

    Arrival in Saint Petersburg.

    11:00 Meeting with a guide at the Moscow railway station at the monument to Peter the Great, the sign "Greets Petersburg".

    11:30 Departure to Peterhof.

    Bus tour "Along the old Peterhof road".

    The Peterhof Road is not only the main highway connecting St. Petersburg with Peterhof, but also a real cultural and historical monument, along which the best examples of palace and park ensembles of the XVII and XVIII centuries are located.

    Perhaps their most striking example is the Kiryanovo estate, which belonged to E. R. Vorontsova-Dashkova, an associate of Catherine II and the first woman of non–imperial origin to hold high government posts.

    On a bus tour, thanks to the opportunity to see the estates of those close to the emperors, you will be able to feel the spirit of Peter the Great's time and the "golden age" of Catherine II.

    13:00 Free time or lunch for an additional fee (approximately 1000 rubles for adults), (tourists staying at the New Peterhof hotel take suitcases with them for lunch to leave them in the luggage room).

    Excursion to the Catherine Building. The "Stone" or Catherine Building was built by F. B. Rastrelli in parallel with the Great Peterhof Palace. Despite the fact that the Catherine Building does not look so majestic against the background of the Palace, it is no less significant in history.

    Why did the building stop bearing the name "Stone"? How is he connected with the overthrow of Peter III? Which museum was opened in the Building after the revolution? Let's find out about it inside!

    An excursion to the museum "Grottos of the Grand Cascade", where you will learn about the secrets of the Peterhof fountains, get into the very center of the fantastic water action – the work of the Grand Cascade.

    Guided tour of the Lower Park. Lower Peterhof Park is a place that is a must–visit for every tourist coming to St. Petersburg. Just imagine, the park covers 102.5 hectares, which is comparable in size to the three squares of the Moscow Kremlin!

    First of all, the Lower Park is famous for the ensemble of the central part with the fountain "Samson tearing the lion's mouth".

    Also, the presence of firecracker fountains will allow you to plunge into Peter the Great's time, when the tsar had fun watching how splashes of water "covered" passing ladies and gentlemen.

    In addition to the firecracker fountains, local squirrel residents will be waiting for you, who are always happy to have treats!

    18:00 The end of the program.

    Independent accommodation at the hotel.
