This company provides private tours and their suggested itineraries are flexible and can be modified if the client desires. Sergey was our planner for the tour. He was very responsive in our email exchanges and happy to make the modifications we requested to the suggested itinerary . He kept in touch promptly and provided all the information we needed for our visas and a detailed revised itinerary that went very smoothly. Overall, both my wife and I enjoyed the trip very much and were quite satisfied with the itinerary and arrangements. Both of the hotels (Mercure Arbat in Moscow and Majestic Boutique in St. Petersburg) were of very good quality, in good and convenient locations, with friendly, helpful staff who spoke English well. The included breakfasts were also quite good. The guides, Natalya in Moscow and Elena in St. Petersburg, were both very professional and knowledgeable about the descriptions and history of the places we visited. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend Rusmania for people looking to book travels to Russia in a non-group setting.

We booked for the Swan Lake ballet on 25 December 2019, with travel date on 24 May 2020, through U Visit Russia. . Due to the Covit19 pandemic we were unable to visit Russia nor attend the ballet. Two tickets were purchased for US$465.50. U Visit Russia was advised of not being able to attend and agreed to pay a full refund but there would be a delay due to the number of cancellations. After some time no refund was forthcoming and U Visit Russia was again contacted by email and we were advised that due to the volume of cancellations the refund would be credited to our credit card within 9 weeks. Nothing and again they were contacted by email but no response was ever received. No refund was ever received. Nothing!! The lesson is to beware of ever dealing with this company.
