The tour guide Yulia was amazing, very knowledgable. excellent English. private tour by car. Highly recommend.
We booked our tour of St Petersburg, Savior on Blood, Isaac Cathedral and the Hermitage museum with Andromeda tours on Viator and did have an incredible experience. Our guide Yulia spoke perfect English and was able to answer all of our questions. Her knowledge of the city and objects of art in the Hermitage was fantastic. We got to see the most interesting and famous sites within the city in just one day! We were lucky to be in a private group with the lowest price available on the website. It was our first stop in Russia, and it was a great experience. The route was well planned so that we visited as many places as possible. Our tour went for 8 hours and was a great introduction to the city. Would recommend this tour to everyone who want to get to know the city in one day and enjoy their trip.
