Your day will begin as your English-speaking guide collects you in a comfortable vehicle directly from your cruise terminal. Once on the road, you will feel like a Russian emperor as you visit Imperial palaces and fountains, as well as the most Russian church of St. Petersburg. You can admire the Hermitage collection of world art, located in the winter Tsar residence. Aside from Paris' Louvre, no other collection rivals the size and quality of the Hermitage Museum. The next leg of your St. Petersburg tour will bring you to the astounding Romantic-style Church of Our Savior on Spilled Blood. Constructed in 1883 following the assassination of Emperor Alexander III (on this exact location), the Grand Church (with its 7,500 beautiful mosaics) was completed in 1907. Following this, you'll be escorted to the iconic Peterhof Grand Palace and Parks. Dubbed the Russian Versailles and erected by Peter the Great to rival Versailles, the stunning collection of palaces, gardens, and grottos are recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On your visit, you will see the gardens, known for its fountains all over the world. This is an incredible day ideal for both individual travelers and families.
