Tourists reviews of vacations in Russia

Thank you so much for the incredible experience!! I loved absolutely everything, from the tour operator's excellent organization to Irina's exceptional guiding. A big thanks to her for the amazing excursions!!

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...

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! 👏👏👏👍

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 liked everything.

The tour was fantastic, surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of Lake Baikal. Most importantly, our guide Leonid made the experience truly unforgettable. Leonid is incredibly knowledgeable—well-versed in history, local customs, wildlife, and plants—and has a great sense of humor. He made our trip exceptional and was always ready to help organize activities during our downtime after the hikes. Thank you so much for the positive energy!

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Big Country team for organizing the trip of my dreams! From June 12 to 18, thanks to the seamless efforts of their staff, I embarked on the Baikal Wanderer tour. In my opinion, this is the perfect itinerary for exploring the region. It features a guided tour of Irkutsk, a charming historic city, an unforgettable journey along the Circum-Baikal Railway, and an introduction to the crown jewel of Russia, Lake Baikal! The host team managed every detail flawlessly, from the warm welcome to accommodations and the thoughtfully planned excursion program. Our group was accompanied throughout the journey by an exceptional guide, Alexander Domashevsky, a true professional in his field. A highlight of the tour was staying on Olkhon Island, practically on the lake's shore, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in its extraordinary atmosphere. Words and photos simply cannot capture the stunning beauty of this place—Baikal is something you need to experience in person! It’s breathtaking in every season and under any weather conditions. Thank you for a fantastic vacation and an abundance of unforgettable memories!

Excellent organization, a rich and exciting tour, and attentive, charismatic guides who share their passion for the places they introduce, making you fall in love with them too. This vacation was truly top-notch!

Kamchatka is stunning, and the tour showcases its full splendor. Every detail has been carefully planned, ensuring both a well-balanced pace and excellent safety measures.

The tour was absolutely amazing! We were captivated by the breathtaking beauty and grandeur of Lake Baikal—its charm is truly mesmerizing. Our guide, Irina, shared fascinating stories and thoughtfully answered all our questions.

I absolutely loved it! This was my first trip to Kamchatka, and everything was flawlessly organized. The excursions were fascinating and well-planned, with knowledgeable guides. The helicopter tour was truly incredible—seeing the volcanoes from above was nothing short of breathtaking! An unforgettable experience!
