Peter the Great was a man with a vision. He was determined to show the world that Russia was not a backward nation rooted in tradition but one that was modern and forward thinking, looking to the West, not the East for its inspiration and ideals. How better to do this than to build a new city on the Baltic Sea? Today, the legacy of his ambitions and achievements is displayed in abundance. Monumental buildings of state, great churches and cathedrals, ornate theatres, legendary art collections, all add up to create one of the most rewarding experiences for modern day visitors.
Our Art, Music & Literature in Moscow tour runs directly after our April & October St Petersburg tours, so why not book both for a comprehensive insight into Russian culture. Price from £4,924 for 11 nights (single supplment £796).

Tatiana Shulga writes: “Visitors are often delighted and surprised to discover how culturally important and influential St. Petersburg was in the 18th and 19th centuries.

By any standards St Petersburg is the most fabulous city with an extraordinarily colourful history. We had a great guide in Tatiana Shulga whose knowledge and passion for her city was inspirational. I loved St Petersburg so much I’ve been twice. The highlight of the first visit was seeing the great blue, white and gold Catherine Palace at Pushkin shimmering in the snow. The second was looking…
