It was an amazing trip in a rainy day. My guide Elena hope I write her name correctly was knowledgeable about city's history and shared many inside info which was really interesting. She also suggested places to go , things to do in the city afterwards. If you have on a short visit in St. Pertersburg and want to cover most of it's must see attraction this tour is highly recommended. A boat trip and priority entrance to main attractions included. Thanks, Alokesh
