Reviews › Our Wonderful Guide to St Petersburg
We stayed at Angleterre Hotel. It has always been a dream of ours to visit St Petersburg and we decided on a private visit rather than with a group. However, we were advised that we would need a guide as some of the main palaces are outside the city. We were recommended Alexei Volkov of MaxiBaltTours and he arranged a very interesting programe for us, taking in most of the important sights. Our guide Arina was extremely knowledgeable and charming and it was like being shown the city by a friend. We were whisked into the Hermitage by the back door, avoiding all the queues and also bypassed all the large groups at Peterhof and the Catherine Palace. We had a wonderful time in this beautiful city and learned a lot about the history from Arina.
We would definitely recommend Alexei and MaxiBaltTours to anyone visiting St Petersburg - a friendly and professional service.
