While 3 days is not nearly enough time to spend in St. Petersburg, this tour will show you the highlights of the city and leave you wishing you could stay longer.
Your private tour will include the Hermitage Museum (early entrance), the Peter & Paul Fortress, and St. Isaac's Cathedral.
On the second day, we'll leave town to visit Tsar's Village, Pavlovsk and Peterhof. We'll see the Palace of Paul I, Catherine's Palace and the famous Amber Room and end the day at Peterhof, with its marvelous fountains and Monplesir, the intimate private palace of Peter the Great.
Our final day is spent at the Russian museum, the Church on the Spilled Blood and a boat trip on the canals of St. Petersburg.
We end each day at approx. 18:00. |
