ReviewsSt Petersburg shore tour from Marco Polo

We were in St Petersburg on the Marco Polo for just two days in May 2015, The trips organised by our ship just didn't tick all our boxes so we had decided to look for our own on line before leaving London.

It could not have been easier to fix up and just to be clear, you don't need individual visas, the one for your ship does cover you, provided you are with a guide while ashore.

MaxiBaltTours represented by Alexei, were there to meet us and our small group of four was merged with eight others from the Queen Elizabeth.

Our tour was an absolute delight. We were in a very comfortable mini van, that was far more nimble than the large coaches in the sometimes heavy city traffic. Our guide Elena was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. We saw all that we had wanted and were even able to arrange an extra evening tour to a Russian Folk evening (that we had neglected to organise from London) while on our trip.

We were extremely well looked after. Our local lunches both days were excellent.

So a big thank you to you Alexei and we would recommend your tour to anyone interested in St Petersburg.

What can be more impressive than seeing the beauty of St. Petersburg leisurely from the water? The city is criss-crossed with small rivers and canals which make the city look like Venice or Amsterdam. Our comfortable boat will take you past the granite embankments along the main waterways of St. Petersburg.
