Full description

Our evening begins in the Nikolayevsky Palace, where you will experience traditional Russian dances and music, along with an elegant reception (buffet table with Russian vodka, red and black caviar included). We invite you to enjoy this enchanting festival of Russian spirit with us!

Then, the magic continues with our "Illuminations" tour along the spectacular floodlit monuments of St. Petersburg. Magical and magnificent by night, a drive through this majestic city and its beautifully illuminated buildings should not be missed by any visitor to Russia's northern capital.

This excursion includes a sightseeing drive to the city's landmarks that are most fascinating when the sun is setting, as well as the most gorgeous palaces and squares of St. Petersburg at night. In summer time you will have the chance to enjoy the romantics of the White Nights, observing the opening of the city's numerous drawbridges.

During White Nights, when a faint twilight takes the place of night darkness, the streets, squares and embankments acquire a unique charm. Though the period of White Nights is short and comes to an end in July, it doesn't mean that a charm of St. Petersburg's night disappears.

The city, dominated by water, still offers its guests many possibilities to feel its beauty. Come and experience it for yourself!
