“A well organised and fluid trip. Everything fell into place when it should which made the holiday easy to enjoy. Guides were well versed on their subjects and easy to understand since English wasn't their first language.”
A wonderful Russian Experience

“We enjoyed a wonderful, busy eight days in Russia. The history, and the culture is all so interesting, and the way they have emerged from the Communist era. Everywhere was extremely clean, and we found the people to be friendly. The churches and cathedrals, and the palaces are beyond spectacular. We had an extra day in St Petersburg which enabled us to go to Peterhof gardens and fountains, though not the palace, and to see Swan Lake at the Mariinsky theatre which was another highlight. Doing the trip as a private adventure we were able to eat proper Russian food in some first rate restaurants, never paying over the odds for our meals.”
A great way to get a flavour of Russia

“This is a typically busy trip from this tour operator which covers a lot of ground in a short period. Despite having a lot to fit in, it's well structured and certainly lived up to our expectations. Going in February means that we avoided what are, apparently, huge crowds in St Petersburg and if you're lucky with the winter weather (we were) then its very beautiful.”

Travel Tips

  • Many travel companies within Russia offer a tour of the ‘Golden Ring’. This is a great option if you want to take in some of the gorgeous ancient cities just north of Moscow.
  • The Russians take their vodka very seriously. As a sign of respect, always drink your vodka straight, without ice or mixers. If finished with your drink, leave some vodka in your glass. Your host will almost always refill an empty glass.
  • Several sites and attractions are closed during the colder months. If visiting between December and March, be sure to research opening times in advance.
  • Want to really make the most of your trip? Brush up on Russian literature, music and history. Russians love talking about their culture with others.
  • Finding English speakers can be difficult outside prime tourist areas, so be sure to learn some basic greetings and phrases before your visit.
  • Same sex relationships are still not fully accepted in Russia. Try to avoid same sex PDA.
