    The tour organization was absolutely outstanding!!!!! Our guide, Anastasia, is incredible—intelligent, engaging, and an absolute professional! A special thank you to her for making the trip so enjoyable! The hotels I stayed at during the tour were extremely comfortable and truly deserve the highest praise! These included the Port Comfort in St. Petersburg and the Victoria in Vyborg. The tour bus drivers were attentive and exceptionally skilled professionals! And of course, I must mention my dedicated assistant, Manager Yulia, who guided me step by step with great expertise during the voucher purchase process. A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved in organizing my vacation!!!!!

    The tour was absolutely wonderful! Each day was packed with incredible experiences, all of them very positive. Our guide, Anastasia Pokrovskaya, was fantastic! The only downside was the accommodation in St. Petersburg – Hotel "Moscow" didn’t quite meet the promised comfort level. Next time I visit this amazing city, I’ll be choosing different lodging.
