Tourists reviews of vacations in Russia - Page 17

Good afternoon! thank you for the hike along the Ladoga coast from June 28 to June 30. Everything was great and a lot of fun! The route was interesting and not too difficult, making it suitable for beginners and children. Maria was an excellent instructor, and Nikita was a wonderful assistant. They shared many interesting stories and useful information about hiking and the area. We had an amazing group, lots of laughter, great conversations, watching the sunset together, singing songs, and sitting around the campfire… such a warm and memorable experience! We’d be happy to join you again if you develop new routes!

I absolutely loved everything! The hosts and team in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky are truly remarkable people—overflowing with kindness, attention, and care. They welcomed me like family, and I’m deeply grateful to them. People like this stay in your heart forever. Sergey, Mikhail, Ivan, Alexandr, Marina, Andrey (and Andrey again! :D), Zhenya, Natasha, Assamedin—thank you so much!!! The tour itself was thoughtfully and comfortably organized. We explored all the most fascinating places to the fullest, and every moment was so incredible that words can’t do it justice. An outstanding tour!!! And yes, Kamchatka is a love that lasts a lifetime...

Everything went great. We absolutely loved Altai❤️ Next time, we’d like to visit Belukha and Lake Teletskoye. Thank you so much! 🙏

We enjoyed everything! The excursions , transfers , and guides were all top-notch. I would especially like to highlight our curator, Tamara, as well as the guides Yekaterina, Yelizaveta, and Albina—unfortunately, we don’t know their last names. The support from the curators, both for the group and individually, was flawless. You’re doing an amazing job! If you come up with any interesting offers in the future, we’ll definitely consider them. Wishing you all the best, and see you next time! 👏👏👏👍

An amazing trip! It will stay in our memories for a long time! The guide was highly professional, the hotels were excellent, and the transfers seamless. We learned so much and made unforgettable memories!

Everything was organized to a high standard. We’re very happy with the experience. Thank you for the excellent tour organization!

A fantastic tour with an engaging program. The only thing I would note is that you need to dedicate a whole day to visit Peterhof and Tsarskoye Selo. The tour offers a preview of these locations, but it’s still very interesting, and I don’t regret the time or money spent.

I really enjoyed it! Both the organization and the care provided by our guides, Masha and Nikita, were excellent :)

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.

A wonderful, eventful tour. We really liked the local guides. The hotel was excellent with absolutely no complaints. The transfers were top-notch.

Overall, the trip left a positive impression. The guides were knowledgeable and professional. It’s a pity that the original tour was changed, but Boldino was interesting as well. I would have preferred to be taken directly to my place of stay on the first day after the tour. I liked the hotel. Thank you.

The accommodation was very comfortable, both in cabins and in tents. The food was delicious and filling. A wide range of gear is available for rent, including tents, trekking poles, and hiking boots. A hairdryer and heater can also be provided upon request. The internet connection was weak and unreliable. The routes were not very diverse: we went through the Bezengi Gorge 2 times and the Mezhergi Gorge 2 times (just on different sides of the gorges), and we never actually reached the glaciers. The host company tends to be overly cautious and cancels routes at the slightest risk, citing safety concerns, even though other trekking clubs were running their planned or alternative routes at the same time.

The trip was wonderful! I especially liked the hotel because of its location. In the evenings, it was beautiful to watch the sunset over the river. Our windows overlooked the Velikaya River, and there were shows along the riverbank every day. Fire performances, folk entertainers, motorboats, and kayaks... I was also very impressed by our guide, Svetlana. I haven’t met anyone in a long time with such an incredible memory - she knew so many facts, dates, and even poems by heart! A truly wonderful person The food was good, the bus was very comfortable, and I didn’t notice any downsides at all. Thank you to your company for organizing such great tours🙏👍🤗❤️

Great, a well-organized and engaging program. I even wished for a bit more time to explore some of the sights.

I was very satisfied with the trip. The program was carried out almost in full (one excursion was replaced due to the weather). I came away with many great impressions, and Lake Baikal was especially memorable.

The tour was very well designed, informative, and engaging. During the trip, we visited some of the most beautiful places, learned a lot of new things, and reconnected with our history. There is no future without history!!!. Thank you all so much!!!!!

The trip took place from June 16 to 22. I highly recommend the tour, though it might be hard to go back to everyday sedentary life afterward, especially for active travelers :) The views are absolutely stunning and only reveal themselves once you climb high into the mountains! Our guide, Natasha B., was wonderful. She paid attention to everyone, kept the mood light, and was always there with a supportive shoulder when things got tough :D The group was fantastic, and the atmosphere was positive throughout :) I loved everything! Only amazing memories remain!

The tour program itself is decent, but the Robinson Hotel, which claims to be a 3 * property, was very disappointing. The rooms are run down (including the bathroom), and there is no Wi-Fi despite it being advertised. A hotel staff member even strongly advised us not to book breakfast, explaining that it isn’t prepared by a chef but by the front desk manager, who is clearly not keen on doing so. It’s hard to understand who awarded this hotel its 3 * rating, it doesn’t live up to it at all.

Hello! We recently returned from our "Moscow – Day by Day: A 7-Day Journey" tour, and we loved every moment of it. The hotel was a great choice. Conveniently located near a subway station, shops, cafés, and nice walking areas. The food at the hotel was excellent, and I was very happy with the meals. The excursions were well-planned, allowing time to sleep in the morning, enjoy the tours, and still have free time to relax or take an evening stroll. The agency’s team was always available, ready to assist, answer questions, and provide guidance. A big thank you. This trip was absolutely fantastic!

Good afternoon! We would like to sincerely thank our guide Gamzat and our driver Adil for such an engaging and enjoyable experience. Many thanks, and best wishes for good health! The excursions were conducted at a very high level, and we learned a lot of interesting and new information. The journeys themselves were smooth and comfortable, and the driver’s professionalism was clearly evident (especially considering that taxi rides in the region can sometimes be quite extreme). We were very fortunate. Adil drove carefully and always maintained a comfortable temperature in the vehicle. Thank you once again. A significant amount of time was spent on the road. Perhaps in the future it would be worth considering accommodations closer to the main locations (some transfers were quite long). However, the guide’s engaging stories and traditional music helped pass the travel time pleasantly. The food was delicious and filling. The focus on national cuisine was a major highlight of the tour. We were especially impressed by the trout, it was absolutely divine. We stayed at the Ocean 3 * hotel (Izberbash). The room was clean. The only minor downside was a slight smell of alcohol after the air conditioner was turned off, which was a bit unpleasant but did not affect our overall impression. The hotel staff were friendly, the beach is nearby, and there are shops on the ground floor where you can buy everything you need. Unfortunately, we were not entirely lucky with our group. Some participants behaved inappropriately at times, creating tension and frequently expressing dissatisfaction. As they say, no group is without its challenges... Thanks to the guide’s excellent conflict-management skills, these situations were handled smoothly. Oh well. Thank you once again! See you again soon!
