Begin with pick-up at your ship and a city tour to see the historic city center, its rivers, cathedrals, grand palaces and canals
Cruise on the Neva River and several of the picturesque canals for a view of the city as it was intended, from the water.
Guided tour inside and out of the stunning Church on Spilled Blood, one of the most requested iconic sights of St Petersburg
Break for an included Russian style lunch.
Visit Palace Square.
Interior tour of the opulent Winter Palace and Hermitage Museum and its best collections in one of the greatest museums in the world.
Board the high speed Hydrofoil for the cruise from St Petersburg to Peterhof.
Visit of the Fountain Park. Peterhof Fountains & Grounds – Built to rival and top Versailles in France, the palace sits atop of a hill overlooking the Gulf of Finland. Peter the Great drafted the layout for the 300-hundred acre park featuring 176 fountains and supervised the design of many of the park’s palaces. The Grand Cascade, the most famous fountain group, features gilded Samson prying open lion's jaws as water cascades down the terraced steps, and small spouting fountains anoint smaller sculptures. We shall stroll through the lower parks and gardens, and view and "experience" (be careful!) some of the Peters. surprise creations among the many decorative fountains.
