Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 2 reviews
Have you heard about the brilliant imperial residences around St Petersburg? They form a real precious necklace around the city and every year attract more and more visitors. The mystery of the Amber Room and gorgeous fountains of Peterhoff are famous all around the world. It is really worth spending the whole day outside St Petersburg enjoying the breathtaking beauty of its suburbs. You will absolutely adore: • The fresh air of Peterhoff gardens • The unique fountain system of Peter the Great’s residence • The magnificent Catherine’s Palace • The resurrected Amber RoomThe advantage of taking a tour to these places instead of going independently is that you avoid the hassle of using the public transport and are taken straight there in a comfortable vehicle. Besides, with pre-arranged tickets you do not have to spend hours lining up, and in the peak season that can be a big thing.

We had a perfect plan for a 5 day tour with 6 friends to St Petersburg with Anastasia Travel before the Pandemic. E-mailing with them was a pleasure and it was very easy, we always had prompt and very accurate responses to our questions. As traveling was not possible we at first decided to take vouchers but recently (one year after the original date!) we asked for a refund. It was no problem at all, we received the whole amount of our payment (in Roubles) without hesitation. We will definitely book with Anastasia Travel Company again as soon as traveling is possible again!

Our tour guide Olga was very interesting to listen to and was an ensiclopedic source of facts and important information. It was our second visit to Saint Petersburg. The tour completed our knowledge and inspired to come back. Other people on the tour were very happy with their choice of the trip too.

Over the years we have dealt with a number of private tour agencies and I am sure that Horosho is one of the we have ever used. Our family of four enjoyed a delightful day trip of Peterhof with Olga. She is thoroughly knowledgeable, personable and has a good sense of humor. She was sensitive to our time issues (off to the railway station immediately after our tour) and managed to teach us an amazing amount about the building (Grand Palace) in Peterhof during 5 hours. This is a delightful tour which gave us a great overview of the history of the area. Of course it wasn't easy to organize this tour due to COVID restrictions but anyway we travelled from Moscow (where we worked) to St Petersburg to see famous sights before finally coming back home to the USA. My wife, our two sons and I felt it we learned and experienced a lot! Not to mention that Olga was delightful to spend the day with, answering all of our questions, so I highly recommend the tour. Stay safe, guys! Thank you for making this tour possible!

We had a three day private tour of St Petersburg with guide Dimitri and driver Alexander. We couldn't have asked for more. Dimitri was delightful and didn't talk too much, so we were able to enjoy the beauty and extravagance of the city without unwarranted distraction. Alexander was a great driver who was always waiting in the easy to spot red van. Everything was very organised, which allowed us to see much more than we had would have otherwise. Express entrance to the churches and palaces was fantastic. Dimitri also suggested excellent places to lunch and helped us search high and low for a particular hard to get souvenir. Thanks guys!

I booked a tour with them to visit the Catherine Palace in Poesjkin on Wednesday 4/12/2019, but since I woke up sick, I was unable to go. Svetlana (my guide) then arranged another trip for my later in the week so I could still go AND it was the best trip during my stay. The palace is wonderful, even in winter the palace is worth a visit. Since it isn't that crowded, we could stroll on our own speed through the palace. The amber room is something unique in the world and words won't do it justice in any way. We went there by public transport and we could chat about a lot of things, since the guide spoke English very well. Her knowledge about the different palaces and monuments around the city was outstanding also. So I could ask question about a lot of other places as well. If you are looking for a guide to visit some place, I recommend checking out this company. They will make it worth every ruble!!!!

We had a wonderful trip to Russia and an amazing tour of St Petersburg in early February before the start of the pandemics. The guide for the 2 day tour (I forgot her name) was the best person to do this job . Personable, friendly and informative. She took us to the museums and palaces as well as to nice places for lunch. I was amazed by the Russian churches I have never seen that much gold in any other place. Thanks to the guide and the driver it was possible to see so much more than we could have seen on our own even in a week. BTW traveling in February was not as cold as I imagined. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

This review is long overdue. We engaged Alla Tours the last week of June 2012. It was very satisfactory experience. We arrived on a cruise ship with three days for seeing sights in Saint Petersburg. Russia does not allow tourists to visit freely without an escort. I contacted Alla in advance for a driver escort and sent along a detailed map showing exactly what I wanted to see. I made clear that a guide providing narration was not necessary. Additionally the escort needed to understand that my spouse and I are a male couple. My itinerary was esoteric with architecture and art ranging from subway stations, social realist monuments, czarist churches, Art Nouveau residential neighborhoods, to a canal boat ride. It all worked as planned and I thought the price was reasonable. It is a good memory.
