St. Petersburg
Dear Friends,
Top Sport Travel is pleased to bring to you a choice of 2 fantastic tours of our fascinating Russian city.
As we live and work in St-Petersburg, we know this beautiful city very well and are delighted to present our programs. When creating the 7-days program, we tried to strike a balance between sightseeing and leisure time. The 4-days program will allow you to get acquainted with the city and its imperial suburbs for a short period of time.
These are only a guide and we are entirely flexible in our programs. You can mix and match any of our suggestions or we will assist you in putting together your own tailor-made program.
The representative of our company will meet you and see you off at the airport to avoid unwanted stress in unfamiliar conditions. An authorized personal guide will escort you around the city in your own language.We can arrange these tours all year round; however, the most fascinating period for visiting St-Petersburg is during the «White Nights» period which lasts from the end of May till July. We ask our clients to reserve tours for this period in advance.
We look forward to your visit! -
Moscow
We offer you to stay 1-2 nights in Moscow on your way to/from Mineralnie Vody, Caucasus (or another towns, depending on your trip: to Kamchatka, Altai etc) because usually there are no direct flights to Mineralnie Vody (or other towns) from another countries. You can use your favorite air company to fly directly to Moscow, spend 1-2 days in Moscow with unbelievable sightseeing, and then fly to Mineralnie Vody (or other towns) with a local air company.
In this way you can combine sport and culture!
