What kind of trip is this?

Saint Petersburg is unlike any other city in Russia. Canals instead of wide boulevards, baroque façades instead of Soviet architecture, world-class art behind river promenades – and an atmosphere suspended between the era of the tsars and the present day. This trip gives you six days to truly get to know the city – with a personal guide, a tailored itinerary, and plenty of freedom for your own discoveries.

The day-by-day plan is a guideline, not a rigid schedule: mornings we spend together (around 5 hours of expert guiding daily, 9am–2pm), afternoons and evenings are yours. What we visit is tailored to you – depending on your interests, the season, and current events.

Who is this trip for?

🆕This is your first time in Russia

You get an introduction that’s rarely this personal: airport pickup, help with a SIM card, currency exchange and apps – and a city that opens up to you layer by layer. No English needed, no Russian required.

🔁You already know Petersburg

Even better – then we’ll go deeper. If you’ve already visited the Hermitage, this time you’ll discover other layers of the city. There’s always something you haven’t seen yet.

What makes Saint Petersburg so special?

🏛️
The HermitageOne of the world’s largest art museums, housed in the tsars’ Winter Palace – from Leonardo to Rembrandt, from Egyptian mummies to Fabergé eggs.
⛲
PeterhofOver 150 fountains, golden statues and parks right on the Gulf of Finland – Russia’s answer to Versailles.
⛪
Church of the Savior on Spilled BloodThe city’s most colorful building – entirely covered in mosaics inside, built in memory of Tsar Alexander II.
🌊
Canals & the NevaMore canals than Amsterdam – Petersburg’s waterways are an experience on foot, and even more so by boat on an evening cruise.
🏰
Peter and Paul FortressThe birthplace of the city – burial site of the Romanov tsars, with the cathedral’s golden spire rising above the Neva.
🎭
Mariinsky TheatreWorld-class ballet and opera in one of the most storied opera houses in the world – an evening at the Mariinsky is unforgettable.
🌙
White NightsIn summer, Petersburg barely gets dark – the city hardly sleeps, with festivals and concerts running until midnight.
🛣️
Nevsky ProspectFive kilometers of grand avenue – Petersburg’s heartbeat. Cafés, bookshops, churches, and the buzz of a world city.

📋 The itinerary – day by day

✈️Start
Day 1 · Arrival

You land – we’re already there

Pickup at Pulkovo Airport, transfer to the hotel, check-in. We help you activate a SIM card and make your first currency exchange. Depending on your arrival time, we’ll show you Nevsky Prospect – Petersburg’s grand avenue – that same evening, or take a stroll along the Neva as the city settles into the evening light.

✈️ Pickup at Pulkovo🏨 Hotel check-in🍽 Welcome dinner in the evening
💡 Arrival day is planned around your flight – we’ll coordinate the schedule and timing with you individually
2Day
Day 2

The Hermitage & Palace Square

The Hermitage is one of the world’s largest art museums – over three million exhibits, housed in the tsars’ Winter Palace. We guide you through the most important halls and show you what’s truly worth seeing – without overwhelming you. Beforehand: Palace Square, one of the most impressive squares in Europe.

🏛 Hermitage & Palace Square🕐 Afternoon & evening free
💡 The Neva promenade right in front of the Hermitage is a lovely spot to linger
3Day
Day 3

Peterhof – Russia’s Versailles

Peterhof lies 30 kilometers west of the city, right on the Gulf of Finland. Over 150 fountains, golden statues, sprawling parkland and views out to sea. In summer the fountains run, in winter everything lies under snow – both have their own charm. We travel there together and show you what’s waiting beyond the famous Grand Cascade.

⛲ 150+ fountains🚌 30 km west of the city🕐 Afternoon & evening free
💡 The return trip by hydrofoil across the Neva is an experience in itself
4Day
Day 4

Church on Spilled Blood, Kazan Cathedral & the canals

The Church of the Resurrection – known as the Church on Spilled Blood – is Petersburg’s most colorful building: vivid mosaics, onion domes, built on the spot where Tsar Alexander II was assassinated. Right next door stands the elegant Kazan Cathedral. Afterward, we stroll through Petersburg’s canal network – the city has more canals than Amsterdam. In the afternoon, optionally the Summer Garden, one of Russia’s oldest parks.

⛪ Church on Spilled Blood & Kazan Cathedral🌊 Canal walk🕐 Evening free
💡 An evening boat trip through the canals is an experience few forget
5Day
Day 5

Peter and Paul Fortress & Nevsky Prospect

The Peter and Paul Fortress is the birthplace of the city – founded by Peter the Great in 1703. The cathedral inside is the burial site of the Romanov tsars. From there we head to Nevsky Prospect – five kilometers of grand avenue that’s shop window, promenade and the city’s main artery all at once.

🏰 Peter and Paul Fortress🛣 Nevsky Prospect🕐 Evening free
💡 Your last evening in Petersburg, entirely up to you: a Russian restaurant, the Mariinsky Theatre, or a stroll while it’s still light out
🏁End

Your tour guide

Alyona
Alyona
German-speaking travel guide

We don’t know Petersburg as tourists, but as people who live or have lived here. Throughout this trip we’re by your side – from pickup at Pulkovo to the transfer back, with genuine insider knowledge off the beaten path.

What travellers say

The Hermitage would have completely overwhelmed us without a guide. This way we saw the most important halls and still had every afternoon free to discover the city on our own.

— Markus B. from Bavaria

I thought I’d already been to Petersburg. With Alyona I got to know an entirely different city, and the airport pickup took away all my nerves.

— Sabine K. from Lower Austria

Why travel with Moya Rossiya?

Russia can feel intimidating: the Cyrillic alphabet, a cash-based society, little English in everyday life. We don’t know Petersburg as tourists, but as people who live or have lived here. You benefit from genuine insider knowledge – off the beaten path, tailored to what truly interests you.

  • German-speaking guide throughout the entire trip
  • Around 5 hours of expert guiding daily – afternoons and evenings free
  • Itinerary tailored individually to you – no standard program
  • Small groups – maximum 10 people per departure
  • No age limit, no prior experience needed

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a visa – and will you help me get one?
Yes, a visa is required for entry. We support you with the eVisa application and guide you step by step through the process.
How does the arrival work?
You fly to Saint Petersburg on your own. We personally pick you up at Pulkovo Airport – no matter when your flight lands. For departure, we arrange your transfer to match your flight time.
Do I need to speak Russian or English?
No. You’ll be accompanied throughout the entire trip by a German-speaking guide – no English needed, no Russian required.
What does a typical day look like?
Mornings we spend together – around 5 hours of expert guiding daily from 9am to 2pm. Afternoons and evenings are yours for your own discoveries.
Is the itinerary fixed?
No, the plan is a guideline. What we visit is tailored individually to you – depending on your interests, the season, and current events in the city. Those who already know the Hermitage will discover other layers of the city.
How big is the group?
Maximum 10 people per departure – so it stays personal.
What’s the best time of year to go?
Each season has its own character: in spring the city awakens and the canals thaw. Summer, with its White Nights, is the most popular time to travel – Peterhof with its fountains, festivals, boat trips. Autumn brings golden light, fewer tourists and a full cultural program at the Mariinsky. And Petersburg in the snow is an entirely different city – frozen canals, Christmas lights, Peterhof under snow.
When do the trips take place?
Monthly, each from the 11th to the 16th of the month (in January 2027: 18th–23rd), from July 2026 to December 2027.
Can I continue traveling afterward?
Yes, it’s easy from Petersburg: you can reach Moscow in 4 hours on the Sapsan high-speed train, and Krasnodar & southern Russia, Siberia with Lake Baikal, or the Trans-Siberian Railway are also great options.
What happens if I change my mind?
No risk: with Flex booking, you secure your spot with a small deposit. If you change your mind, we’ll refund the deposit in full.
Still have questions about the trip?

Write to us – we’ll answer personally, usually within a few hours.
