Hi, If you don't plan to get a visa, the only option for you will be to take St Peterline (Moby spl) ferry that allows a visa-free stay for up to 72 hours, stay at the hotel and book their shuttle-bus to the city. I will be happy to suggest a tour program for you, but it will be easier if I know the dates as the museums have different schedule. Regards, Alisa

Hi, Unfortunately the system here doesn't allow to include e-mails into answers to the questions. You can google Petersburgtrip private tpurs and e-mail me. There is also a website link to the website on the top of the page of our listing on Tripadvisor. Regards, Alisa

Dear Judi, I am sory for a big delay in answering, for some reasons I didn't get a notification about your question. I am sure you have already chosen some company, but nevertheless. I would suggest the following tour program: Day 1: 09:00 meeting at the ship, departure for Peterhof by private car. A stop to see some of the most beautiful metro stations. 10:30 - 12:30 - tour of Peterhof fountain park 12:30 - 13:30 - lunch break if needed 13:30 - 15:30 - driving back to St Petersburg with a stop at a local supermarket on the way back 15:30 - 16:00 - tour of St Isaac's cathedral 16:30 - 17:00 - tour of the Peter and Paul fortress 17:40 - return to the ship Day 2 09:30 - meeting at the port, departure for the city center by public transport 10:30 - 11:00 - tour of the Savior on Spilt blood church 11:15 - 13:10 - tour of the Hermitage museum 13:10 - 14:00 - lunch break if needed 14:30 - 15:30 - shopping 17:00 - back to the ship

Hello, I suggest a rather relaxed program to give you more time to take photos. I have included public transport in the basic option to cut costs, but it's possible to arrange a private car if needed. This far costs are approximate, I will be able to confirm them after New Year: Day 1: Walking city tour with visits to the Savior on Spilled blood church and St Isaac's cathedral - 5000 rub for 2 people (including museum tickets). The tour lasts about 3 hours. Day 2 Hermitage museum tour . 5600 rub for 2 people if the tour includes the main museum complex (with the Winter palace) and 7000 rub if you want to see the collection of impressionists as well. Museum tickets are included in both cases. Please note that the tour with impressionist collection can take most of the day. Day 3 Catherine palace and the Peter and Paul fortress - by public transport. Tour price 11000 rub including public transport and museum tickets. The tour takes most of the day. Day 4 Peterhof fountain park by public transport. I suggest to skip the palace as the fountains are the main attraction there. Tour price will be 8300 for 2 people including public traansport and museum tickets. Also you will be able to see some of the most beautiful metro stations on the way there. I think it will be easier to discuss other options by e-mail indicated on my website. Regards, Alisa

Hi, Charley Regarding your requests, we can try to do the following: Day 1: Since it's a longer day I suggest using a private car for your convenience 08:45 - meeting at the ship, departure for Peterhof fountain park. On the way we'll make a stop to see the most beautiful metro stations & will make a quick stop at a supermarket 11:00-12:30 - tour of the fountain park 12:30-13:30 - lunch break if needed (payed extra) 13:30-15:00 - driving back to the city center 15:00 - 15:40 - tour of the territory of the Peter and Paul's fortress 16:30 -17:30 - tour of faberge museum (you'll join larger group with an English-speaking guide) 18:00 - 18:30 - return to the ship day 2 - city center by public transport 09:00 - meeting at the ship, departure to the city center by public transport 10:00 - 11:30 - walk in the city center including the Savior on Spilt blood church 11:30-14:00 - Hermitage museum tour (honestly I recommend to skip the treasury this time - details below) 14:00 - 14:40 - lunch break if needed (payed extra) 14:40 - 15:30 - walk to St Isaac's cathedral (without inside visit) and the Bronze horseman monument 16:30 /17:00 - return to the ship This is a private tour, the price will be 480$ for both of you including guiding service, museum tickets, transportation costs, car pass to the port, etc. Personal expenses like meals and souvenirs are not included. Please note that exact order of visiting sites may be different. Now more details on Faberge museum and the Hermitage treasuries. Private tours of Faberge museums are extraordinarily expensive for small parties as they charge even a few people as a large group ( 9000 rub at the moment). But every day they have a group guided tour in English and I have included it in the tour price as it's LOTS cheaper. The disadvantage is that time of such a tour is given only about a week in advance, so there may be changes in terms of order of visiting sites. As for the Hermitage treasury, the story is almost the same. The treasury is not included into the "normal" museum ticket as it can hold only a very limited number of people every day. Tickets to the treasury are not sold in advance and chances to get them from the ticket office the same day are slim as they sell only several dozens of tickets for tours in English every day. Private tours of the treausury are very expensive for small parties (again, they charge as if you were a large-size group) and they confirm private tours at a very short notice. If they have too many visitors on some dates, they may deny some requests at a very short notice (of course, they don't charge money in that case), so it's a little like a lottery. That's why very few companies offer tours of the treasuries of the Hermitage in fact unless thay have a sort of special agreement. But even if they have it, private tours are VERY expensive. In your case I would rather skip the treasury of the Hermitage as you have less than 2 full days in the city and already plan to visit Faberge. If by chance we are lucky to get the treasury tickets the day we are going to the Hermitage and the scheduled treasury tour is available at some time convenient for us, we can try to go there. Extra charge will be only for your treasury tickets which will be about 600 rub (10-15$) Regards, Alisa
