Whether you have just one day in St Petersburg or are lucky enough to have three full days to explore this beautiful city, we can plan a program that will make the most of your time in Russia.

For those with just one day on shore you can choose from a morning admiring the splendour that is Peterhof and the afternoon exploring the most famous museum in the world, The Hermitage. Alternatively you could visit Catherine Palace with its acres of  intricately hand laid parquet flooring, visit the Amber Room Workshops on our Exeter Extraordinary Experience followed by lunch and a tour of Pavlovsk, a country residence of the Russian Imperial family.

If you have a second day and did not visit The Hermitage the previous day, we can arrange a private tour of the Gold Treasure Rooms during your visit to the museum, an Exeter Extraordinary Experience or take a backstage tour at the Mariinsky Theater and end the day with a private Canal Boat Ride.

A third day would enable you to complete the ultimate Russian experience and fly to Moscow for the day, visiting such legendary sites as Red Square, G.U.M. Department Store or being part of a once in a lifetime private tour of the faceted Palace at the Kremlin and Terem.

Being in St Petersburg more than one day means that you will have the opportunity to enjoy some of the city’s wonderful evening performances including ballet or opera at the world famous Mariinsky (Kirov) Theater and the opportunity to meet with a ballerina after the performance at the Hermitage Theater. 

If your visit coincides with the White Nights Festival from mid-May to mid-July please contact us for more details on obtaining the best seats to some of these world-class evening performances.
