I was very disappointed by St. Petersburg. Yes, they fixed all the churches, closed when I lived there. And obviously museums and palaces inside and outside the city. But the city itself does not look good, at least for me.

My husband and I took our very first River Cruise from St. Petersburg to Moscow. I would describe that this trip surpassed our expectations. The ship was managed by highly professional crew, the food was excellent, the touring was as described in our guide. It gave us a landscape of a very interesting and historical filled country. It is an... More

My husband and I had the most enjoyable and professional tour of St Petersburg on 26st and 27th January 2013 with White Nights Travel. We did enjoy this company very much and the casual lunches we had with our guide and driver. The Palaces were magnificent and Masha had such a knowledge of the history behind Catherine the Great and... More

Hi, we travelled to St. Petersburg as a couple and through Rick Steves (well-known U.S. travel writer) we read that private tour guides are cheap, helpful and a great way to get around the city (since all signs are in Russian). We called Alexy - a really nice middle-aged man who works as a private English teacher in Russia. He... More

Last July we went on a Baltic cruise and spent 2 full days in St. Petersburg. We did not want to book with the ship and after some search I found Ludmila Tours on the net. We were extremely pleased with Ludmila's assistance in every respect. Luda and her guide Helen she arranged for us in St. Petersburg was deeply... More

A very special tourist attraction are the metro stations of st Petersburg. The decorations are amazing and you only have to buy a ticket to use the metro.

We went with TJ Tours to St. Petersburg, Berlin, and Tallin. Great service,and best tour guides .Beside great guides the cost was much lower than on the Holland America Eurodam. If you want the best for less, go TJ!

We, seven Singaporeans, traveled from Helsinki to St Petersburg by high-speed train in the early morning of May 31, 2012. When arriving at Perersburg City railway station, Ms Dasha from White Nights Travel was already waiting for us on the platform. We booked a 2-Day St. Petersburg Tour with Petersburg's White Nights Travel before leaving Singapore, and Ms Dasha as... More

Ordinarily, we eschew tours, having been annoyed by the busloads of obese fellow-travelers mainly interested in gift shops and lunch. We therefore opted to try this company Tours by Locals to hire our own, private guide, to take us precisely where we wanted, on our own schedule, without wasting most of our time on the herd. We have absolutely no... More
