Tourists reviews of vacations in Russia

I joined the tour from June 16 to June 23, 2024. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our guides at every stage of the route for their professionalism, organization, flexibility, and above all, their passion for their work, their region, and the people they share its beauty with! The weather is the most crucial factor in the success of a tour, and June is an unpredictable month for visiting Kamchatka – it all comes down to luck. I believe we were very fortunate with the weather. Despite forecasts warning that "things are complicated and uncertain, and we’ll have to adapt," we had excellent visibility and the opportunity to see valleys, volcanoes, and breathtaking views. The food was fantastic (special thanks to the chefs Natalia and Yevgeni at the Vulkan shelter), transportation was safe, and there were plenty of laughs along the way! We had an amazing time, and I can’t wait to return!

The tour was fantastic! The weather was a bit unpredictable, but it didn’t dampen the mood or the overall experience. Our guide, Leonid, was incredible! He knew everything—history, traditions, flora, fauna—and was full of energy, always attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure we enjoyed our time. We learned so much about the local way of life and even played a traditional board game, which was great fun. Leonid is such a knowledgeable guide 👍👍👍—with him, you feel confident climbing any mountain. The natural scenery was absolutely breathtaking. Before the tour, I was a bit concerned about the food, but it turned out there was no need to worry—everything was excellent. Our group was also amazing, full of positivity and great energy. Thank you for such a refreshing and uplifting experience!

An incredible trip. The organization of all activities was outstanding. Every detail was carefully planned and flawlessly executed. Easily a 10+ rating on a five-point scale.

The tour was incredibly interesting and full of experiences. We visited all the key locations on Olkhon, with plenty of time at each stop to take photos and explore. Our guide, Ekaterina, is clearly passionate about her work and approaches it with great professionalism. She shared a wealth of information, explained local traditions, and answered all our questions. A special thanks to Dmitry, the driver of the GAZ Sobol bus, for his excellent attitude and outstanding professionalism.

An engaging and well-thought-out program, enjoyable not only for children but also for parents. The tour was well-organized, with a well-maintained schedule. The buses were comfortable, and the food was plentiful and varied. The Moscow Hotel, where we stayed, was clean, cozy, and conveniently located. Our guide, Anna, was attentive and great with the children, making the beauty of St. Petersburg come alive for them.

A very interesting tour that left a lot of positive impressions. The cultural charm of Buryatia, the warm waters of Lake Baikal, and the delicious local cuisine were truly delightful.

We took part in the St. Petersburg Collection tour. The excursions were very interesting, and the program was well-organized and diverse. We visited all the places we were excited to see: Peterhof, Pavlovsk, Kronstadt, Tsarskoye Selo, and Gatchina... The buses were comfortable and well-maintained...

This tour left only positive impressions. Everything was top-notch—from the airport transfer to the entire itinerary. Due to the weather conditions, some excursion days were rearranged, but our group actually saw this as a plus. Seeing the Aniva Lighthouse at the end of the trip was even better than at the beginning—otherwise, the other excursions might have felt less impressive in comparison. June is the rainy season, so it’s probably better to visit Sakhalin at a different time, but the organizers provided raincoats, which was a great help. One day, our driver even took us to an extra site that wasn’t originally part of the tour (with our consent, of course) and patiently waited for an hour while we explored. The outdoor meals were mainly seafood—fresh, delicious, and plentiful! We were completely full, and there was still food left over. The vehicles for the excursions were comfortable and spacious, with enough room for everyone. These five days flew by in an instant. Thank you for such an incredible experience 💜

I absolutely loved everything! The places were unforgettable, and we managed to see so much in just four days.

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!!

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.

We went on the tour in December 2023, and the program was incredibly rich and engaging. We accomplished everything we planned and even more. We're still thrilled about our trip! Special thanks to Dmitry—a person who truly loves his work and, most importantly, his city. We took a little piece of that love for Murmansk home with us ❤️

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! 👏👏👏👍

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!

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 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.

It was a truly memorable journey... The trip to 'Stone City' and the 'Hanging Stone' is suitable for people of all ages, but physical fitness plays an important role. I had to climb numerous steps and jump over boulders. For such hikes, having the right footwear with good grip is essential. While these aren’t the most challenging routes, the heat of 38°C made it a bit tough for me. I was fortunate to have a great group and, of course, our guide Nikolai. His understanding, attentiveness, humor, and positivity helped our group tackle all the challenges of the hike. A huge thank you to the tour team, drivers, and especially to our guide Nikolai! These amazing memories will stay with me for a long time!

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

Many thanks to the tour providers, and special thanks to our guide Mikhail for creating such a wonderful experience and atmosphere. Kunashir is magical ❤️
