I am specialized in tailor-made tours and so itineraries I design are flexible and customized to your exact needs.
I give a wide range of private tours covering all the most interesting sights of St. Petersburg.
Here you can find the descriptions of the most popular tours. However, that’s far not everything I do.
It usually works like this:
1. You get in touch with me and give me the dates of your stay.
2. I advise you on the itinerary and give the preliminary quotations.
3. We discuss the details and make necessary changes.
4. You confirm your visit and I book the dates for you. No booking fee is required.
5. I meet you at the airport/railway station/pier.
6. You pay my services at the end of each tour day.
So you just book the hotel and plane tickets and I take care of everything else: airport-hotel transfer, car-and-driver service, museum entrances tickets, theatre arrangements and so on.
